Our natural color camera can cover an 850-meter swath over a transmission or pipe line corridor at a resolution of 15 cm per pixel, generating a 50-cm DEM, with the option of simultaneous matching multispectral coverage at 45 cm per pixel. At those resolutions:
- Damage to towers can be easily identified.
- The height of vegetation underneath transmission lines can be measured.
- 'Fall arc' elevation buffers around each line can be automatically calculated to identify any adjacent trees with sufficient height to hit lines if they fell (example outlined in yellow).
- Existing and emerging wetlands can be identified and mapped to determine areas that will require special restricted treatments to control vegetation.
