Inspection, Survey & LiDAR
Utility and infrastructure clients use SkyMatch to coordinate inspection helicopter requests for high-voltage powerlines, oil and gas pipelines, rail corridors and wind farms. Licensed independent operators confirm LiDAR pods, EO/IR thermal cameras, methane sensors and turbine-blade inspection optics, together with aircraft, crew, permissions, timing, availability and price.
Typical applications
- High-voltage powerline corona and thermal inspection
- Oil and gas pipeline right-of-way patrol
- Wind-turbine blade inspection using high-resolution optics
Compliance and crew requirements
Operator-confirmed requirements: low-level survey approval, corridor NOTAMs and sensor operator qualifications.
Frequently asked questions
Which inspection sensors can independent operators fit?+
Requests can specify LiDAR pods, EO/IR thermal cameras, methane or hydrocarbon sensors and high-resolution turbine-blade optics, matched to the utility, pipeline or wind-farm inspection scope. Licensed independent operators confirm sensor integration, aircraft, crew, permissions, timing, availability and price.
Can you arrange corridor inspections after a storm?+
Post-event transmission-line and pipeline patrol requests are coordinated as quickly as possible, subject to operator availability. Licensed independent operators confirm aircraft, crew, permissions, timing, availability, price and mission suitability for post-storm patrols and scheduled corridor inspections.
Can operators provide raw data or a processed inspection report?+
Requests can specify raw LiDAR data and imagery or a fully processed inspection report through a partner GIS laboratory. Independent operators confirm the deliverables against the agreed scope of work.
