The value of drone 3D models for infrastructure inspection.

by Jack Sharp -

View our latest blog with a Case study showcasing the benefits of 3D modelling for asset inspection and maintenance. View datasets collected by the new DJI Matrice 4E surveying drone.

  • 3D models collected with drone data are 'worth their weight in gold' for infrastructure inspection;

  • Benefits of asset-based 3D modelling include enhanced visualisations and spatially-correct data - for remote diagnostics, predictive maintenance, and streamlined team-wide collaboration;

  • heliguy™ collaborated with Puffin Technology to map a ship unloader with the DJI Matrice 4E's Smart 3D Capture mode.

“If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a 3D reality model is worth many more.”

That’s the verdict of Kyle Veitch when describing the value of precision reality models for conducting condition assessments of critical infrastructure.

The owner of drone inspection firm Puffin Technology shared his views after teaming up with heliguy™ to trial the drone photogrammetry capabilities of the new DJI Matrice 4 Enterprise - resulting in this detailed model of a ship unloader. Click the settings cog to view the model in HD.
