Welcome SKY POWERLINES inspection
We provide detailed inspection services and 3D mapping of transmission and distribution lines with innovative technology
Technology and Service - precise vegetation management
3D mapping of power lines
Georeferenced precise report
Georeferenced precise report
With the 3D mapping of Power Lines using Direct Georeferencing (DG) and innovative aerophotogrammetry technology and AI, it is possible to carry out detailed analyzes of areas with a potential risk of accidents due to the proximity of the Power Lines.

To attend safe drone flights and at the same time offering efficiency and efficacy to offer services to customers at lower costs, we have developed a customizd new aerial-photogrammetry solution:
- Hexacopter Drone with total take-off weight of less than 4 kg and small dimensions (100 x 100 x 37) cm.
- Flight time of 40 min using Li-ion battery, collecting images and data on average 180 Km / month in 15 working days.
- Flight plan and flight 100% automated.
- Redundancy in case of failure: engine, battery, sensors, telemetry / control and FPV video.
- Camera: new camera that replaces the LiDAR system to detect cables and add them to the point cloud.
- RTK/PPK system with accuracy better than 2 cm

At client HRZ Transmissoras (ACTIS Group), comparing inspection by patrolling, our service reduced the cost by around EUR 360K with vegetation cutting and detection of critical situation for fire/shutdown in more than 350 network spans in 410 km previously unidentified. With a team we did the work in 3 months. Cost 80% lower than the quote for the service via helicopter with LiDAR.
- Drone piloted by the customer after training in 5 days. Services performed with VLOS flights (very safe).
