Energy infrastructure capability

Energy infrastructure inspections and 3D modelling

UAV capture for remote review, inspection planning and navigable visual records of pylons and elevated energy assets across the UK.

Commercial site intelligence

See the asset and its wider environment

Energy infrastructure is often elevated, geographically dispersed and difficult to assess using ground photographs alone. Structured UAV capture can provide a clearer view of the asset while retaining the surrounding terrain and access context.

DWNE converts the capture into organised imagery and interactive 3D records that support early review, maintenance preparation and communication between engineering, asset and contractor teams.

Typical project outputs

  • High-resolution aerial and oblique imagery
  • Interactive browser-based 3D model
  • Wider terrain and access context
  • Shareable visual record for project teams
  • Baseline suitable for repeat comparison

Coverage: Newcastle-based, operating throughout the UK.

Applications

How project teams can use the data

01

Remote asset review

Examine elevated infrastructure from multiple viewpoints before closer access is planned.

02

Inspection planning

Improve understanding of the asset, terrain and visible site constraints before mobilisation.

03

Maintenance preparation

Give teams a clearer visual reference when defining scope and access requirements.

04

Stakeholder coordination

Share one navigable record across engineering, maintenance and contractor teams.

05

Repeat comparison

Create a baseline that can support later capture and visible change review.

06

Reduced exposure

Limit unnecessary initial work at height where aerial capture can provide the required overview.

Example deliverable

Explore a pylon and its surroundings in 3D

This live model demonstrates how a pylon can be reviewed remotely while preserving its relationship with the surrounding terrain.

  • Rotate and zoom around the captured environment
  • Review the asset or site from multiple perspectives
  • Share through a standard browser without specialist software
  • Create a baseline for later capture and comparison
