Thermal Imaging

Achieve visibility in complete darkness and gain actionable aerial intelligence from a safe distance.

The powerful combination of thermal imaging cameras and drones has made aerial thermography accessible and affordable for virtually any industry. From utilities to law enforcement to insurance audits, thermal cameras cover a wide range of uses where temperature measurements and heat detection are necessary for mission success. Gresco Technology Solutions offers cutting-edge DJI drones and Zenmuse XT cameras powered with FLIR imaging technology to enable reliable and fast thermal image capture.

Benefits of Thermal Imaging

  • Superior Visibility

    Thermal imaging cameras can see through obscurants such as fog, smoke, trees, and canopies while drones are able to maneuver through tight spaces and challenging terrain.

  • Cost-Effective Surveys

    Use thermal imaging cameras with drones at a fraction of the price of helicopters. Faster missions and less manpower also contribute to lower costs.

  • Efficient Operations

    Conduct an inspection in minutes instead of hours while automating data analysis and transmission. UAS technology is ideal for rescue and emergency missions where time is of the essence.

  • Improved Safety

    Keep your personnel on the ground. Today’s UAVs are small, agile and can be easily manipulated to access the most dangerous, hard-to-reach terrain or sites.

Industries That Use Thermal Imaging

Utilities

Working on T&D systems is cost-intensive, difficult, and highly dangerous. Protect against unexpected power outages and system breakdowns by using UAVs equipped with thermal cameras to inspect and maintain power lines, substations, poles, and other critical assets. Thermal imaging is also invaluable in solar farm inspections where defects, or “hot spots,” on solar panels can be identified quickly and precisely.

Public Safety

Hundreds of law enforcement, firefighting, and private security firms across U.S. already utilize UAS technology to save lives, gain situational awareness, and make critical tactical decisions in emergency situations. Drones cover large areas with unmatched speed and can be dispatched in any terrain to gather valuable ground and aerial intelligence with minimum safety risks.

Compliance & Auditing

Traditional roof inspections can take hours or even days. With UAS technology and thermal imaging, find heating or cooling problems, electrical issues, moisture spots and other problems in a matter of minutes, saving money and streamlining the asset inspection process.
