05 / Capability
Asset and thermal inspection
Find the fault without putting anyone on the structure.
What it is
Inspecting a headframe, a conveyor gantry or a tank roof traditionally means rope access, an elevated work platform, or a shutdown. All three are expensive and two of them put a person at height. A close-standoff flight produces better coverage than a person can reach, in an afternoon, with nobody on the structure.

Accuracies are 1σ residuals measured at independent checkpoints excluded from the adjustment. Every figure on this page is invented for a demonstration build.
Method
How we do it
Indexed to your asset register
Findings are tagged to your asset IDs, not to our photo numbers. A report you have to cross-reference by hand is a report that does not get actioned.
Thermal is calibrated, not colourful
Thermal imagery is captured with a stated absolute accuracy and an emissivity assumption written on the report. A false-colour picture with no scale is decoration.
Findings, not an image dump
You get a findings report listing what was observed and where, with the imagery as evidence behind each item — plus the full set if you want it.
In your industry
Where this gets used
01
Mining and resources
Conveyor gantries, headframes and tank roofs without rope access or a shutdown.
02
Civil construction and infrastructure
Dated, georeferenced evidence of what was built and when — in the format your design software already opens.
03
Agriculture and land management
Terrain models over whole properties, at a scale that makes drainage and earthworks planning a measurement rather than a judgement.
