SO YOUR TEAM HAS DRONE IMAGES... WHAT'S NEXT?
ORGANIZE
VOLT CORRELATES IMAGES TO PRECISE LOCATIONS & CUSTOMER POLE IDs
Capturing images with a drone is just the beginning. In small inspections, thousands of images can be captured. These images need to be matched to their corresponding locations and assigned to associated structures. When inspections get more complex and the number of structures grows into the thousands, this exercise can be complex, tedious, and time consuming. VOLT makes the job easy. VOLT users simply drag their spec UAV images into the secure VOLT cloud and VOLT does the rest: Aligning images, structures, and GIS/GPS locations in minutes instead of weeks.

WHY DRONES & WHY VOLT
Drones: Accelerating Operations &
Maintenance for Electric Utilities
Managing electrical networks has been a time-consuming, inefficient, expensive process. Recent technical advances in unmanned data capture and massively scalable data analytics now offer these critical utilities the game changing ability to streamline operations, lower costs, improve efficiency, and advance grid stability.

Roger G., COO,
Gunnison County Electric Association
"The amount of work that was produced… especially during this pandemic, was truly impressive. The project was a success and the information we gained from it is invaluable."
Curtis K., General Manager,
Southwest Public Power District
"We flew 268 miles of our 69kV backbone and that was turned around in 10 days, it is crazy fast. That sort of time certainly justifies the expense and is very cost-effective, far more cost-effective than we could do with our own resources."
