Building inspection with drone

Faster building inspection. Better data collection.

Roof or facade inspections on buildings often mean the time-consuming installation of a climber, scaffolding or the use of industrial climbers with the associated time and costs. By using drones, the task can be completed in a fraction of the time and the resulting data is detailed and comprehensive. 

Our drones are flown by professional, licensed pilots who are familiar with local flight regulations for commercial drone operations. In addition, we coordinate the requirements of the job in detail with you, and the pilots then carry out the "mission" accordingly. 

The areas of application and functionality of a building inspection by drone

There are many reasons why a building inspection becomes necessary. These include: 

• As-built surveys 
• Area survey 
• Assessment of the condition of a part of the building that is difficult to access, e.g. the facade 
• Localization and recording of damage e.g. storm damage to the roof 
• Checking the functionality of the building e.g. the energy efficiency of the building envelope 

With our drones you can take high-resolution individual photos, video recordings or even thermal images. The data can be georeferenced and LiDAR scanning can be used to measure surfaces, slope angles and distances with millimeter precision. In addition, the data is stored centrally on a web platform, where it is made available to all parties involved.  

After processing and analysis, they are supplemented by detailed reports in standardized form, depending on the purpose. This provides the possibility of a before-and-after comparison. In addition, thermal sensors are used to detect cracks, water ingress, heat development, cold spots and other anomalies.
