Fueling a chopper, hiring a crew, flying to a project site, and hovering aloft for hours to perform the mission. All of these dramatically add to the cost of a telecom/radio tower inspection.
The cost of hiring climbing crews to inspect towers and other structures is quite costly as well. The cost of operation for a drone mission is much less than alternative methods. That is how RadioWorks is able to pass those savings on to its clients.
RadioWorks drone services are critical to a mission because of the speed and thoroughness with which they operate. There is no comparison for the time it takes to reach the top of a tower or structure. A drone can do it much faster than a human tower climber. RadioWorks drone services also have the capability of collecting enough data in a few short flights to create a precise interactive 3D digital model of a subject.
RadioWorks then uses sophisticated software to compare current 3D models of a tower or structure to previous models. These detailed comparisons identify any changes or differences over time. These differences can indicate an unsafe shifting or degradation in the tower or structure.
Drone technology is not only here to stay, but it will only improve as time goes by! Even today, high-res, thermal imaging and infrared cameras can now be drone-lifted. These cameras can examine subjects in low-light, no-light, smoke-filled, and other challenging environments. As drone technology continues to advance, RadioWorks will remain at the cutting edge of discovery. Listed below are some drone applications that RadioWorks currently stands ready to deliver to their clients:
RadioWorks drone services can provide clients with dazzling photography and stunning videography. These services can be used for commercials, movies, sporting events, real estate listings, and more! RadioWorks drone services can offer a distinct perspective. A perspective that is virtually impossible to capture with more costly and less flexible manned alternatives.
RadioWorks drone services can be deployed quickly and effectively when time is of the essence. They can arrive on-site and take flight faster than traditional manned aircraft. Once on the scene, RadioWorks drone services can get much closer to points of interest. And this is achieved without obscuring vision or spreading contaminants with heavy prop-wash.
RadioWorks drone services can closely examine the condition of a missing subject. At the same time, they can send exact GPS location coordinates back to base camp. RadioWorks drone services can also get in close at a Hazmat scene. They can discover both the source and severity of a hazardous leak. And RadioWorks drone services can accomplish this mission while keeping Hazmat workers out of harm’s way!
