Orthomosaic
Large Scale Mapping
Building inspections are crucial for ensuring the safety and longevity of a structure. But traditional inspection methods can be time-consuming and limited in scope.
​
That's where drone-created orthomosaics come in.
​
An orthomosaic is a high-resolution aerial map created by stitching together multiple images taken by a drone. This technology offers the following benefits for building inspections:
​
-
Comprehensive Overview: Orthomosaics provide a complete and detailed view of the entire building, from roof to foundation.
-
Enhanced Safety: Inspections can be done from the air, reducing the need for workers to perform dangerous inspections.
-
Improved Efficiency: Orthomosaics can be created in a fraction of the time it takes for traditional inspections.
-
Increased Accuracy: High-resolution images captured by drones provide precise and accurate data for inspections.
-
Access to Hard-to-Reach Areas: Drones can easily access hard-to-reach areas, such as rooftops, providing a complete inspection.

Roof And Guttering Inspections
Roof inspections are a crucial part of maintaining the integrity of a building, but they can be a dangerous and time-consuming task. Traditional roof inspections require a human inspector to physically climb onto the roof, which can be dangerous, especially if the roof is steep or in poor condition.
Drones, on the other hand, offer a safer and more efficient alternative.
Here are a few benefits of using drones for carrying out roof inspections:
-
Increased Safety: The use of drones eliminates the need for a human inspector to physically climb onto the roof, reducing the risk of injury or accidents. This is particularly important for inspecting large commercial or industrial buildings, which can have complex roof systems and steep pitches.
-
Increased Efficiency: Drones can cover a large area of a roof in a short amount of time, which allows for a more thorough inspection. They can also access areas that are difficult for a human inspector to reach, such as the corners and edges of a roof.
-
High-Resolution Images and Videos: Drones can capture high-resolution images and videos of a roof, which allows for a detailed and accurate inspection. These images and videos can be analyzed by the inspector to identify any potential issues or damage.
-
Cost-Effective: Drones are often less expensive than traditional inspection methods, as they eliminate the need for scaffolding, safety equipment, and the labour costs associated with a human inspector.
-
Access to Hard-to-Reach Areas: Drones can navigate tight spaces, such as skylights, vents, and other openings, that are difficult or impossible for a human inspector to access.
-
Reduced Disruption: Drones can perform inspections quickly and quietly, minimizing disruption to the building's occupants and operations.
​
Using drones for carrying out roof inspections has numerous benefits, including increased safety, increased efficiency, high-resolution images and videos, cost-effectiveness, access to hard-to-reach areas, and reduced disruption. These benefits make drones a valuable tool for building owners, property managers, and roofing professionals to keep their roofs in good condition.
