This helps companies detect potential problems before they become major issues. The use of drones for inspecting wind turbines is becoming mainstream as they offer significant advantages over conventional surveying systems. Remote technicians can perform more in-depth inspections by analysing drone-gathered images with photogrammetry software that creates digital models of the towers. As well as being useful for creating 3D maps of utility infrastructure to help companies better understand the layout and condition of their assets, they can be used to monitor for potential safety hazards such as gas leaks or fires without endangering humans.
