Power Line Inspection
The fastest and most efficient way to keep your network 100% functional
Be reactive and get ahead of power line outages. With their long-range capabilities,
helicopters allow you to get onsite at a moment’s notice - even at large distances. Once
there, you can precisely detect and evaluate any malfunctions in the lines to then
anticipate immediate or long-term maintenance.
