GGI LiDAR Distribution Powerline Vegetation_1

We gathered approximately 20 square miles in February 2021, encompassing transmission and distribution power lines concurrently to validate the latest airborne LiDAR sensor from a fixed wing aircraft using wide-area collection mode. This is the most efficient, effective, and accurate method for collecting LiDAR data on power lines and vegetation. The LiDAR point cloud model (approximately 1200 ft long x 800 ft wide) features a section of a distribution circuit in rugged terrain with high fire threats. This model serves as an extremely high-quality input for our proprietary powerline asset and vegetation management analytics. We can calculate vegetation encroachment and powerline clearance to within centimeter-level accuracy. In this section, no hazards were identified. This periodic inspection tool is ideal for verifying that vegetation has been maintained and immediate actions are not required. We possess the capability of collecting and processing hundreds of miles of data every few weeks.
