Project to provide visual monitoring of objects using UAVs

Our customer
A large energy company
Context
  • Need for monitoring fire hazardous areas
  • Need to track the appearance of unauthorized objects in a protected area
  • Need to control the dimensions and sagging of power transmission line wires
Industry
Electric Power
Objectives
  • Provide effective visual control of the protected area in a remote mode
  • Organize automatic processing of received visual data, ensure their transformation and transmission in an observation‑friendly format
Tasks
Solution
Result
  • Organize monitoring of objects using drones, provide for automatic transmission and processing of data
  • Create a digital terrain model
  • Provide access to images and 3D models via a Web interface
Tasks
Solution
Result

  • A system for controlling and receiving images from drones has been put in place;
  • Data transmission and auto processing using computer vision, ML and predictive analytics has been provided for;
  • A digital terrain model for visualization of the obtained data has been created and easy access to images and 3D models has been ensured.
Tasks
Solution
Result

A web platform based on Analytics as a Service model has been implemented.

  • Object identification along power transmission lines:
    • Height of trees and shrubs, types of trees
    • Area of felling in the controlled area
    • Presence of hazardous objects (e.g. fire hazard or risk of falling onto power transmission lines)
    • Presence of foreign and artificial objects in the protected area
  • Monitoring of power line parameters
    • Control of horizontal and vertical dimensions
    • Detection of wire faults
    • Route turning angles, span lengths

The solution enables the power transmission line area to be monitored automatically and remotely, identifying hazardous factors and objects and monitoring wire geometry and damage.
