Drone Technology Used For Cell Tower Inspections 

TELECOM TOWER INSPECTION

Telecom tower inspections are complex structures that require a unique and highly specialist approach to inspection. With modern technology, communication and cell towers can be undertaken using drone tower inspection techniques to inspect ‘remotely’, using both UAVs (drones) and ground-based giga-pixel camera systems.

“UASG has been critical in our PIM mitigation project by identifying issues from the desktop and allowing us to share large, detailed 3D models with our distributed turf vendors in real-time to come to agreement and make decisions immediately”

Compare Construction Drawings vs. As-Builts

Use accurate hi-res 3D models to compare actual equipment placement,  azimuths, distances and skew to engineering CAD drawings to determine actual vs as-built conditions.

Accurate Job Closeout Package

Use 3D reality models to confirm project work completed per spec. Provide regulatory assessments on every cell site through drone-based digital imagery and analytics accurate to 1mm and .1 degree.

New Technology Deployments

Use digital twins to remotely conduct pre-project site assessments, determine current tower antenna configuration, lease encroachments and verify available power.

Identify and Remediate PIM

Use 360 panoramas to identify physical interferences that could be impacting signal, verify antenna skew, spacing and tower encroachments.

STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS

  • Drone cell tower inspection software that compares CAD design documents to actual 3D models side-by-side to rapidly identify potential structural issues.
  • Quickly detect and flag design issues, discrepancies, and build requirements before they are service impacting.

Equipment Analysis

 

  • Utilize hi-res 3D point cloud models to make precise antenna measurements and complete detailed analysis without a site visit.
  • You can use drone tower inspection data to complete “desktop engineering” for pre-project scoping and analysis.
  • A full set of integrated measurement tools allow comprehensive analysis using either point cloud or mesh 3D digital twin models.

3D Model Sectioning TooL

 

Sectioning tool allows you to isolate portions of the cell tower structure to perform detailed drone tower inspection analysis:

    • Remove obstructing equipment and structural elements to complete accurate measurements, determine azimuths and downtilt or complete equipment inspections of assets that would otherwise be obscured.
    • Focus maintenance team attention on specific pieces of equipment or issues by isolating equipment from the larger 3D model.
