Visual Inspection

Vertech Robotics make use of state-of-the-art drones that enable close visual inspection, internally and externally, to areas deemed difficult to access or time consuming to perform via the traditional routes of rope-access or erection of working structures such as scaffolding.

Security and Surveillance

Vertech Robotics have UAV systems that provide the ideal solution to the problems and limitations faced by other surveillance methods. Drone surveillance presents an easier, faster, and cheaper method of data collection. Consequently, there are also several other key advantages. Drone can enter dangerous area’s and are equipped with night-vision and high zoom cameras coupled with spotlights.

Survey

Vertech Robotics offer an unrivalled, comprehensive state-of-the-art solution in Aerial/ Terrestrial laser scanning, by integrating UAV and LiDAR technology.

By generating an aerial 3D point cloud of your site, we can reduce the time, cost and complexity of inspections and surveying while providing a detailed 3D model of the area.

Using our advanced drones and sensors, Vertech can produce the following:

  • Geo-Referenced Orthomosaics
  • DEM (Digital Elevation Models)
  • Dense Point Clouds
  • 3D Models
  • DTM’s (Digital Terrain Models)
  • Quantities for stockpiles and open pit mines
  • CAD drawings for planning and development

Visual Inspection and 3D Modelling

Vertech Robotics make use of digital captured data to obtain information on telecommunication towers & equipment.

  • With drones & smart camera systems, Vertech make use of “stereophotogrammetry”, the art and science of combining two or more images with similar characteristics to build a 3d model.
  • Gathering data onsite without any risks to the operators.
  • Captured data goes through several processes to get a scaled 3d model of the actual structure in the field, “we bring the site to your office”, resulting in minimal time out in the field.
  • Improved accuracy in inspections results and surveying of more towers in a single day, compared to the traditional methods.

In the Telecommunication industry, we can offer the following services:

  • Structural surveys
  • TSSR surveys
  • Line of sight surveys
  • Signal strength tests/drive test
  • Loading analysis
  • Foundation analysis

Survey

  • Photogrammetry 3D data overlay on Lidar captured data.
  • Digitising terrain & structures with pinpoint accuracies.

Vertech Robotics work with market leaders to offer the latest technologies for inspections in the renewable energy sectors. Making use of Thermal, Lidar, HD camera’s & state-of-the-art software, Vertech can now offer autonomous inspections, that proved to be time & cost saving solutions to our clients.

Renewable sectors:

  • Onshore & Offshore Wind
  • Concentrated Solar (CSP)
  • Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
  • Hydroelectric
