We carry out inspection, control, removal of doubt and acquisition of information for the development of diagnosis of structures on types of bridges:

• Piers and decks

• Dams

• Industrial chimneys

• Wind turbines, photovoltaic fields

• Rocky trenches, cliffs, slopes

• Buildings

• Air coolers

• Towers, radio transmitters…

The use of drones simplifies the logistics of structure inspections and greatly minimizes the impact on operations. From a safety point of view, it allows to limit and better target access to dangerous or difficult areas.

The diversity of our fleet of drones allows us to intervene effectively on all categories of structures, indoors and outdoors, and to respond in the most appropriate way to the needs of each service, depending on the equipment to be carried. Our aircraft are equipped with proximity sensors that inform the operators in real time of the distance between the facing and the drone. We are therefore able to ensure an optimal flight distance for all our acquisitions.

Geo-referencing of images


A GPS, an altimeter, a magnetometer as well as distance meters and other specific equipment developed by Diadès, provide precise information on the position of each photograph to the nearest centimetre, in particular for better monitoring of pathologies over time and better diagnosis thanks to post-processing.

Photogrammetry, 3D modeling

Objects of the missions

  • Calculate volumes and surfaces, take measurements
  • Integration of data in CAD and GIS software
  • Integration of projects in a georeferenced model

Restitution 

  • Aerial photos and videos, georeferenced orthophotographs
  • Point clouds, 3D models (3D software compatible)
  • Digital Terrain Models (DTM), topographic plans

Examples of 3D renderings


EVIR 2

Flying machine for close inspection in confined spaces, our EVIR system is fully operational and several missions have already been carried out, notably for EDF, Hydratec…

Choice of sensor

High Definition Sensors

Our cameras feature high-definition sensors from 20.2 to 64 MP, providing clear images even in low light conditions: wide dynamic range, high sensitivity and low noise for high detail and excellent definition.

Infrared sensors

Designed for thermography, our thermal camera has two simultaneous spectral channels (day and thermal channels). It is possible to switch remotely between the two cameras. The minimum, average and maximum temperatures can be displayed in the image.
