Introducing Our Drone Inspection Service for Water Utilities

By Underwater Vision Team - 24th January 2025

At Underwater Vision, we’re thrilled to announce our latest addition to our range of services: drone inspections designed specifically for water utility companies. Equipped with cutting-edge technology and unmatched precision, this new service enhances how water infrastructure is inspected, maintained, and protected.

The Power of the DJI Matrice 30T Drone

Our drone inspection service is powered by the state-of-the-art DJI Matrice 30T, a high-performance drone equipped with advanced features like thermal imaging and exceptional flight capabilities. This technology enables us to deliver accurate, efficient, and safe inspections for water utilities.

Whether it’s spotting leaks in pipelines spread across vast countryside landscapes or conducting detailed inspections of towering water infrastructure, our drone solution offers unmatched versatility and reliability.

How Drone Inspections Benefit Water Utility Companies

Identifying Water Leaks with Thermal Imaging
One of the key features of our DJI Matrice 30T is its thermal imaging capability. Water leaks from large pipes in rural or remote areas can be incredibly challenging to detect with traditional methods. However, thermal imaging allows us to quickly locate leaks by identifying temperature variations in the surrounding environment.

This proactive approach minimises water loss, reduces repair costs, and helps maintain the integrity of the water supply system.

Efficient and Safe Water Tower Inspections
Water towers are critical infrastructure, but inspecting them can be hazardous and time-consuming using conventional methods like scaffolding or rope access. Our drone provides a safe, efficient alternative, capturing high-resolution visuals and thermal data to identify structural issues, leaks, or potential damage.

By eliminating the need for manual inspections at height, we not only improve safety but also significantly reduce inspection time and costs.

Coverage of Large and Remote Areas
Traditional inspection methods can struggle to address the vast, often remote areas that water pipelines and facilities cover. Our drone can rapidly survey extensive areas, delivering precise data without the need for heavy machinery or prolonged fieldwork.

Cost-Effective and Environmentally Friendly
Drone inspections are faster, more efficient, and less resource-intensive compared to traditional methods. This reduces costs and minimises the environmental impact of inspections, aligning with the sustainability goals of many water utility companies.
