About the category

What it is and what it is for

Industrial drones carry cameras, thermal cameras or LiDAR and capture large areas and hard-to-reach spots without scaffolding or aerial work platforms. Some systems take off automatically from a docking station and recharge there. The data is turned into orthophotos, 3D models and inspection reports.

Typical uses in business

  • Inspecting roofs, façades, bridges and wind turbines.
  • Surveying construction sites and terrain, calculating volumes and progress.
  • Checking solar parks and power lines with thermal imaging.
  • Monitoring plant sites regularly and automatically from a docking station.

What businesses should check before buying

  1. Sensors to suit the task: zoom, thermal or LiDAR.
  2. Accuracy (RTK) and flight time for the planned area.
  3. Legal framework: operating category under EU drone rules, class label, proof of competence.
  4. Data sovereignty: where recordings are stored and whether operation without the cloud is possible.

Integration & effortEffort: medium

Besides the device you need trained pilots, the right proof of competence and, where applicable, an operational authorisation. Add flight planning, processing software and a process for feeding results into maintenance or site management. Automated flights from a docking station usually require an authorisation in the specific category.
