STREAMLINING COMMUNICATION AND COLLABORATION
TECHNOLOGY
42 be stitched together to produce HD maps and 3D models . Being able to fly so close to a site , drones are able to get down to about half-of-a-centimetre-perpixel resolution , allowing surveyors to easily spot problem like cracks and damaged shingles , even in hard-to-reach places .
The rollout of thermal imaging has also been extremely helpful in identifying structural issues , especially for roof inspections of buildings and massive commercial complexes . These images provide heat signatures that easily show where air conditioners are malfunctioning , where there ' s water damage , where solar panels are dirty , and so on . This makes it a much safer process for inspectors , who are otherwise forced to scale tall buildings to check for the smallest issues that can compromise infrastructure .
“ After completing aerial photo flights , they are able to produce progress reports immediately , delivering up-todate , easily digestible visual data ”
— Mike Winn , CEO and co-founder of DroneDeploy
