The library of location data can help you automate routine monitoring, increase surveying capabilities, and mitigate utility downtimes, potentially saving millions of dollars.
Leverage digital technology by bringing accurate, reliable aerial data from Vexcel into your GIS platform for asset mapping. Use the analytics of GIS tools to create real location intelligence to help streamline your remote monitoring and inspection workflows.
Q: How does aerial imagery support utility vegetation management?
Vexcel aerial imagery helps utilities monitor vegetation near transmission and distribution infrastructure at scale. Utilities use Vexcel imagery to review tree growth, vegetation encroachment, access conditions, and surrounding environments to support vegetation management and corridor planning workflows.
Q: Can Vexcel products identify vegetation threatening power lines?
Yes. Vexcel Multispectral imagery helps utilities better identify vegetation health, density, and growth patterns near power infrastructure. Combined with Vexcel DSM data and aerial imagery, utilities can better understand where vegetation may threaten transmission and distribution corridors. Vexcel imagery and DSM data can also serve as a lower-cost alternative to expensive lidar collections or help augment data between lidar collection cycles.
Q: How does Vexcel imagery help with utility asset inspection?
Vexcel imagery helps utilities review transmission lines, substations, poles, towers, access roads, and surrounding infrastructure across large geographic areas. Vexcel Obliques also provide angled views of utility assets and nearby conditions to better understand structures and surrounding environments.
Q: What role does aerial data play in utility disaster response?
Vexcel’s Gray Sky imagery helps utilities understand large-scale impacts after hurricanes, wildfires, and other catastrophic events. Utilities use Vexcel imagery to review damaged corridors, access conditions, and surrounding infrastructure to support damage assessment and post-event analysis.
Q: How can AI help utilities monitor infrastructure at scale?
Vexcel’s imagery and geospatial data are optimized for AI analysis, helping utilities identify infrastructure, vegetation risks, roadway access, and surrounding conditions across large service areas. Utilities use AI-derived insights to support corridor mapping, asset management, and infrastructure planning.
With Vexcel Intelligence, utilities can also search ortho and oblique imagery to find poles, substations, transmission corridors, vegetation encroachment, equipment, and other real-world features across their networks.
