WHY THIS WORKFLOW
Schedule repeat visits for selected assets or areas, subject to site conditions and approved operating procedures.
Use agreed routes and capture points to make visual records easier to review across inspection cycles.
Monitor compatible dock and aircraft operations through the selected flight-operations platform.
A fixed or vehicle-mounted dock can be considered when it fits the asset layout and approved concept of operations.
Select visual or compatible thermal capture according to the target, sensor configuration, and inspection objective.
Connect selected images, mission details, asset references, and observations to the agreed inspection record.
THE INSPECTION CHALLENGE
Structures, obstacles, access zones, and viewpoints shape a safe and useful mission plan.
Power, communications, weather exposure, security, and launch clearance affect where a dock can operate.
Wind, visibility, and site conditions influence when a mission can run and what data it can collect.
Aerial imagery supports visual review and follow-up planning; it does not replace contact measurements or NDT.
Flight tools manage missions; inspection teams still need asset context, observations, evidence, and reporting.
Remote and BVLOS concepts depend on site feasibility, permissions, and the approved operating plan.
التقنيات و الأساليب
Define asset targets, viewpoints, access boundaries, operating windows, and review requirements before deployment.
Select compatible dock, aircraft, camera or thermal sensor, communications, and installation position for the approved mission.
Plan and supervise compatible dock-based flights through the selected operations platform, subject to approvals and site procedures.
Organize mission evidence and asset-linked observations in the agreed Terra Cloud and Terra Inspection workflow.
Plan missions and operate compatible aircraft and docks remotely in DJI FlightHub 2.
Capture the agreed visual or thermal images with the selected aircraft and sensor.
Use Terra Inspection to link images to assets and record observations, findings, and evidence.
Use Terra Cloud to process and deliver the agreed data package. Confirm the handoff format for each deployment.
ENGINEERING DELIVERABLES
المنصات والتطبيقات
Repeatable views of pipe racks, flare structures, stacks, and other selected assets can support routine visual review and maintenance follow-up.
Repeatable external views of tank roofs, shells, bund walls, and surrounding pipework can help teams track visible changes between inspection cycles.
Potential applications include highwall slope assessment, haul-road grade planning, cut-and-fill change detection from repeat surveys, and spatial environmental-buffer monitoring.
Scheduled visual checks of selected substation structures, equipment enclosures, access routes, and perimeter areas can help teams document visible changes between visits.
