# Industrial Inspection

## Maximum asset visibility. Minimal human operation.

Automate your inspections to understand the condition of your assets, see changes over time and take action on issues before they become costly outages.

## Your assets are integrated

- All assets geolocated in a live 3D environment
- Generate a visual twin that reflects real-world conditions
- Inspection data integrated across every sensor
- Every capture feeding one centralized, cloud-based workflow
- A single operational picture your whole team can trust

## Your missions are automated

- Choose which assets get inspected and how often
- Update missions remotely – no site visit required
- Convert captures into real-world coordinates
- Inspection data aligns directly with maps, models and site drawings
- Consistent, repeatable paths catch the small changes manual walkthroughs miss

## Your data is delivered

- Every capture lands automatically in your project
- Your data is organized, visualized and synced
- Full asset history across time and payload types in one place
- Machine learning models surface gauge readings and detect objects
- Safety protocol gaps flagged before they become problems

## How industrial inspection works

### Capture
From thermal drones to robots, we integrate with the hardware your team already trusts.

### Measure
Every capture is automatically processed, georeferenced and uploaded to a centralized cloud workspace – accessible from anywhere.

### Process
Machine learning models turn inspection data into instant answers – gauge readings, object detection and safety flags delivered automatically, without manual review.

## Supported hardware

### Supported hardware
Our processing engine works with data from any camera source and supports automated flights, mission planning, and execution across drones, ground robots, docked systems, and 360 cameras.

### Data on demand
**Need the data but don't have pilots or hardware yet?** Use our services network to capture key corridors and facilities at the cadence you need, with processed maps, photos and models delivered straight into your DroneDeploy account.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is DroneDeploy the right fit for your operations?
Asset managers, reliability engineers, HSE managers and operations engineers managing high-value infrastructure across oil and gas, solar, mining, utilities and telecommunications use DroneDeploy Industrial Inspection to run safer, more consistent inspection programs.

### What assets does DroneDeploy Industrial Inspection cover?
Pipelines, storage tanks, solar panels, cell towers, transmission lines, mining equipment and offshore structures.

### How does robotic inspection compare to a human crew?
In direct comparisons, DroneDeploy-powered systems collected data 30% faster than human crews. Repeat missions are identical – which matters when you're tracking change over time.

### How does the visual twin work for asset tracking?
Each inspection mission builds a persistent visual record of the asset. After every capture, that record updates.

### How do findings get from the inspection record to the right team?
Teams review captured imagery and annotate observations in the platform – each item links directly to the specific frame the robot captured.

### How is inspection data from industrial sites protected?
All inspection data is encrypted in transit and at rest. DroneDeploy Firewall routes data from dock hardware directly to DroneDeploy-controlled US servers.
