The commercial use of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) is a safe, versatile and cost efficient solution for pipeline inspection. UAS inspections are an environmentally friendly solution that requires less equipment, time for planning, mobilization and data collection than traditional methods. Pond’s team of Visual Spotters, Certified Remote Pilots, and Coatings Specialists can inspect a larger area per day than what is currently inspected using traditional methods. The imagery or video produced during the inspection is a digital archive for time lapse comparisons. UAS technology reduces the risk of personal injury associated with traditional pipeline surveys. In addition, UAS eliminate the risk and costs associated with utilizing heavy equipment. Pond provides a full-service UAS approach to pipeline inspection to meet your company’s needs.
