Kyiv heating mains are inspected by drones. Using installed thermal imagers, DroneUA drones help identify hidden defects in pipes, insulation failures, and network flooding.
The use of drones can reduce the risk of heat outages during the heating season, as well as prevent possible accidents on heating mains.
From the air, one team of drone operators can inspect up to 50 km of heating mains per day, recording all possible temperature deviations and accurately linking them to the coordinate system.
Unlike ground inspections, drones provide the opportunity to increase the speed of inspections without loss of quality, with maximum documentation of research results.
surveys were carried out as part of a pilot project
