Managing vegetation encroachment is a huge, costly task. Scopito Encroachment Analysis cuts costs and smooths the workflow.
Managing vegetation can be very time consuming and extremely costly. Not managing vegetation encroachment will cost you even more.
Scopito Encroachment Analysis cuts cost significantly by offering a solution that relies on photogrammetry rather than LiDAR. You get the accuracy you need, delivered as annotated, geo-tagged images, starting at 80€ / kilometer.
To us, that’s simply good sense.
Perform your vegetation encroachment analysis with Scopito Encroachment Analysis to save time, hassle, and cash.
When you upload an inspection in Scopito, you will now be able to request Encroachment Analysis in the platform, if you captured the data according to our guidelines.
When you do, we will use advanced photogrammetry algorithms to create a 3D map of your line and identify vegetation that is too close to the line, from the parameters you provide.
Once analysed, encroaching vegetation will be annotated in your images.
Now you can generate your inspection reports to assist the maintenance crew, as usual.
The price of Scopito Encroachment Analysis is 80€ / kilometres, for 100 kilometres or less.
If you have more than 100 kilometres, please contact us for pricing.
If you’re doubting the efficiency of Photogrammetry or currently using LiDAR, take the time to read our white-paper comparing the two technologies for encroachment surveying.
In this white-paper, we answer the question: “Is Photogrammetry a viable replacement for LiDAR in encroachment surveying in terms of price, time and accuracy?” by looking at Proof of Concept project using Scopito Encroachment Surveying.
In the past, LiDAR has been the technology of choice for accurately mapping vegetation growth along power lines. In the last couple of years however, new technology has evolved to become a serious competitor to LiDAR; Photogrammetry.
The purpose of this white paper, is to use results from a proof of concept project using the newest photogrammetry encroachment modeling-technology, in an attempt to answer the question: Is Photogrammetry a viable replacement for LiDAR in encroachment surveying considering the factors; price, time and accuracy?
The following sections will focus on the POC-project in question, where a stretch of line was surveyed and the photos processed using photogrammetry, to determine the distances between lines and vegetation.
The companies involved are FlyTech UAV (responsible for post-processing) and Remote Operations (responsible for data-capture).
