Drone Inspection and Digital Twin
Use drones and high-end cameras to conduct resolute inspections and construct accurate digital twin models of assets.
We tailor our services to our client’s specification to conduct a visual inspection of structures, facilities and landscapes. Our fleet of versatile multi-rotor UAVs are used to deploy a range of specialised payloads, enabling the early detection of potential issues and facilitate proactive maintenance. Drone-based techniques are supplemented through use of traditional survey technologies, such as RTK GNSS and terrestrial laser scanning, to collect the high quality data.
How do we collect data?


What data can be collected?
Geo-4D’s visual inspection services use unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), equipped with various camera and LiDAR sensors. Live data capture allows for immediate decision making and comprehensive reports facilitate actionable, reliable insights.

-
Safety: Drone technology eliminates the need for personnel to physically access challenging or hazardous locations, minimising the risk of accidents associated with traditional survey methods.
-
Efficiency: Drone inspections require minimal equipment and manpower, leading to reduced operational costs. The efficiency of drone surveys saves both time and resources.
-
Accuracy: High-resolution cameras and specialized sensors capture detailed and accurate imagery. This is essential for precise inspections, allowing for the identification of structural issues, damages, or anomalies.
-
Repeatability: Building cm-accurate georeferenced digital twins over time with routine inspections provides a consistent, repeatable method for monitoring assets.
