Drones for environmental monitoring
Automating inspection & monitoring is must to optimize sustainability
Maintaining infrastructure reliability and reducing emissions with frequent inspections are critical for meeting your ESG goals – why not automate both?
When large-scale failures occur within heavy industry, they not only make headlines, but cost millions in environmental and safety damages. Visual inspections are critical to ensure your site’s assets are in good condition AND to monitor for unwanted emissions and environmental infractions.

FAQs
Drones for environmental monitoring
How do drones help the environment?
For critical infrastructure, responsible for 40% of global carbon footprint, drones are critical tools to monitor asset health and emissions. Drones can be used in a wide range of other industries to help the environment, including forestry, agriculture, wildlife observation and more.
What is the future of drone technology in environmental management?
Drone technology will play a key role in global environmental efforts, as more and more stakeholders with significant carbon footprints turn to drones to help them reach their environmental goals. Recent innovations in drone technology such as drones with Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) payload, are becoming critical tools for Oil & Gas stakeholders to reduce their emissions.
How does critical infrastructure impact the environment?
Critical infrastructure ranges from energy, including Oil & Gas and power plants, to mining and waste management. Traditionally, these industries can contribute significantly to global carbon footprint if not properly monitored and maintained. Critical infrastructure failures such such as power grid fires and tailings spills can have widespread impacts, causing forest fires or wildlife destruction for example. For stakeholders responsible for maintaining critical infrastructure, keeping their assets (i.e. transmission lines, pipes, tanks and tailings) in top condition can help prevent large scale failures.
