Drones for Utilities: Safer, faster, cheaper inspections & data insights. Transform power grids & pipelines. Watch videos now!
Drones Save Utilities! ⚡️Future is Here: Video Insights
From sprawling power grids to intricate pipeline networks, utility infrastructure demands constant monitoring and maintenance. These videos explore how drones are revolutionizing utility work, offering safer, faster, and more cost-effective solutions than traditional methods. We’ll examine how cutting-edge drone technology, coupled with data analytics, is transforming asset management and empowering utility companies to make informed decisions.
Key Takeaways: Drone Technology in Utility Operations
Data-Driven Decisions:Drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and advanced sensors collect vast amounts of data, enabling utilities to assess infrastructure health, identify potential problems, and optimize maintenance schedules.
Enhanced Safety: Drone inspections minimize the need for workers to climb towers or access hazardous areas, significantly reducing workplace risks and improving overall safety.
Cost Efficiency: Drones streamline inspection processes, reducing downtime and manpower requirements, leading to significant cost savings for utility companies.
BVLOS Operations and Data Analysis: The discussion on Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations underscores the growing importance of regulatory frameworks and the transformative potential of drone-collected data for analysis and machine learning.
The Future is Now: Drones Taking Flight
The integration of drones, robotics, and the Internet of Things (IoT) marks a paradigm shift in utility management. As drone technology advances and regulations evolve, we can expect even greater efficiency and safety in utility operations. This includes more sophisticated autonomous flight capabilities, enhanced data analytics, and integration with other smart technologies.

Talking drones in Utilities with PrecisionHawk @ #DTECH2019Kevin O’Donovan128 views | 0 | February 13 2019 07:04:13 (0 comments)[ Read more … ]
I met up with Michael Chasen, CEO of PrecisionHawk. We had a chat to find get Michael’s thoughts and outlook for drones in the Utility Industry.
Michael outlined who PrecisionHawk is, the transition he has seen in the past 12 months in the Utility Industry from pilots to deployments, his thoughts on BVLOS, how Utilities are at the forefront of the deployment of drones today …
We warped up with Micheal outlining how PrecisionHawk at it’s core is an Analytics and Machine Learning company because what matters at the end of the day is, regardless how you collect information, it’s what you do with that information.
