Safely document critical components of bridge support and truss structures. Skydio’s AI-driven six-camera visual navigation system isn’t reliant on a GPS signal, so precision positioning underneath bridges is possible.  You'll consistently capture high-quality data, including photogrammetry, video and thermal images. Get greater coverage and more accurate defect detection to help you make better maintenance decisions.

Any inspector can be flight-enabled with just a few minutes of training

Traditional drones take weeks to learn and 100s of hours of flying time to get proficient. That’s not required with Skydio. Our ground-breaking autonomous technology enable operators with minimal experience to get close to structural components while on-board AI software deftly avoids obstacles. Launch and grow your program without big investments in training.

Fully automate your inspection data collection process

Accurate 2D and 3D models help make better maintenance decisions over time. But, it’s challenging to collect the data you need. Skydio can automatically fly your structure and capture overlapping images with metadata. Your inspector can view imagery on-site and verify they have the complete data set needed to enable high-quality photogrammetry modeling.
