Remote Monitoring

Automated data collection and analysis

Automated real-time data collection

Harness the power of remotely-deployed, highly-automated robotics for on-demand, real-time data collection, and situational awareness.

Remote monitoring and inspection revolutionises data collection and analysis, enabling persistent, round-the-clock operations for continuity, increased ROI and enhanced safety.

Integrate multiple solutions such as a drone in a box and ground robotics for an advanced ecosystem of automated remote workflows, from capture to insights.

Utilise cloud-based software to conduct and centrally manage remote operations, including inspections, monitoring, surveillance, and alerts.

Remotely operated onsite robotics with reduced human intervention benefit industry applications such as security, utilities, mining, oil and gas, ports and terminals, and construction/infrastructure projects.

Remote Monitoring Drone In A Box Workflow

  1. Plan A Mission: Remotely plan a mission - either for a scheduled, routine operation or a spontaneous flight.

  2. Automated Deployment: A drone in a box - such as DJI Dock 2 and DJI Dock - automatically deploys the drone.

  3. Remote Data Capture: Automonmously and remotely capture data and images of your target subject.

  4. Real-time Data Sharing: Real-time data sharing through cloud-connected management software, allowing instant data transfer and reporting.

  5. Return To Home and Recharge: Drone autonomously lands back on the docking station and the batteries recharge, ready for the next mission.

Benefits of Remote Monitoring

  • Operational Flexibility: Conduct persistent, scheduled, round-the-clock data collection or deploy spontaneously.

  • On-Demand Data Collection: Permanently-sited, on-location, autonomous solutions are ready to deploy on-demand - unbound by staff availability and logistical constraints.

  • Cost Savings: Maintain business continuity and operations from anywhere in the world as on-site robots collect consistent, accurate and repeatable data - all managed from afar, centralising data.

  • Enhanced Safety: Remotely-operated drones and robots perform risky tasks in dangerous areas or hard-to-reach locations.

  • Repeatable Data: Automate missions to ensure your on-site robots collect accurate and repeatable data, more frequently.

  • Environmentally Friendly: Remote and automated robotics are an environmentally-friendly way of collecting data.

Remote Monitoring: Industry Use Cases

  • Security / Surveillance: Persistent or on-demand data collection - drones enhance CCTV coverage, reduce blindspots, cover more area than ground systems, and avoid static sensor vulnerabilities.

  • Mining: Assess confined spaces, inspect mine shafts, prevent costly shutdowns, and respond to emergencies like collapses or security breaches.

  • Ports and Terminals: Secure port facilities 24/7 with onsite robotics, inspect shipments, manage inventory, extend security perimeters, and oversee multiple ports remotely.

  • Oil and Gas: Minimise refinery downtime, reduce costs, and improve safety. Use automated drones and robots to detect leaks, faults, and hazards to enable proactive maintenance and reduce human risk.

  • Construction and Infrastructure: Use persistent visual data streams and centralized digital management to monitor productivity. Onsite robotics ensure frequent inspections, aiding progress tracking, safety compliance, and cost reduction through high-res maps and models.

  • Utilities: Detect anomalies to prevent outages and minimise downtime. Onsite robotics save travel time, improve safety, and enable 24/7 substation monitoring.

BVLOS Drone Operations In The UK

Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations are a fundamental part of a remote monitoring workflow.

BVLOS is an operation in which the remote pilot or remotely piloted aircraft observer does not use visual reference to the drone during the flight. Operating BVLOS is not explicitly prohibited or restricted by regulation in the UK, however it does require an OSC and permission from the UK CAA to do so.

heliguy™ has a dedicated OSC consultant to help you build an OSC for BVLOS operations. The consultancy has achieved 30+ OSCs, including flights to a maximum range of 3,000m.

Work is ongoing in the UK to standardise BVLOS operations.
