UAV Rail and Infrastructure

Why Choose Our UAV Rail and Infrastructure Services?

Our UAV services are designed to meet the unique demands of the rail industry, providing fast, safe, and accurate data collection that supports project planning, monitoring, and maintenance. Key benefits of our UAV services include:

• Enhanced Safety: By eliminating the need for personnel to work directly on the tracks, we minimise risks and improve overall safety.
• Cost Savings: UAV technology reduces the need for costly track possessions and line blocks, enabling significant savings on large-scale projects.
• Rapid Data Collection: Our UAVs capture data at a much faster rate than traditional methods, accelerating project timelines and enhancing decision-making.

High-Accuracy Data for Rail Infrastructure

Our UAV systems are equipped to meet Network Rail Band 1 accuracy requirements, achieving sub-5mm precision for measurements and data collection. This level of accuracy ensures that data captured through our UAV services meets the stringent standards necessary for rail infrastructure projects. From track alignment and condition assessments to structural analysis, our UAVs provide high-resolution data that supports every aspect of rail planning and maintenance.
