INSPECTION WORKFLOW

From image acquisition to 3D damage mapping

01

Image acquisition

Planned drone acquisition, adapted to the structure and inspection requirements.

Drone · Handheld camera
02

AI-assisted damage detection

AI-assisted detection of defects such as cracks, corrosion and spalling, etc. for review by structural engineers.

Segmentation · Classification
03

3D damage mapping

Quantify and localize defects in geo-referenced 3D models.

Damage quantification
04

Reporting

A digital 3D model of the structure with damage information in PRIMA, complemented by 2D damage plots.
