Detection water with Red cross Malawi

PROJECTS

Combining UAV Imagery, Volunteered Geographic Information, and Field Survey Data to Improve Characterization of Rural Water Points in Malawi.

Reporting on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (2015–2030) has become more complicated than reporting on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), given the increase in the number of goals, targets, and indicators. SDG 6 is focused on ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.

The project describes a methodology for combining various data sources to create a more comprehensive dataset on SDG 6.1.1. (proportion of population using safely managed drinking water services).

SmartPlanes Freya was used to facilitate visual detection of water points on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) imagery and estimate the number of people served per water point. Combining data on water points identified on our UAV imagery with data on water points from
field surveys improves the overall quality in terms of removal of inconsistencies and enrichment of attribute information.

Exhibition EBR

Introducing project with Combitech. Smartplanes participates in the fair EBR Method and machine days 17-20 May 2022 in Eskilstuna, Sweden. You will find us in area 3, Operation and maintenance (Drift och underhåll). Looking forward to see you!

Power line inspection

Power line inspection

In collaboration with Pite Energi SmartPlanes make flight inspection of the electricity networks with drones in order to identify deviations such as trees and vegetation in the main street, line damage, inclined pole and insulator damage.

EOS – Eyes on Scene

EOS – Eyes on Scene

SmartPlanes contributes to safer and more efficient Sea Rescue with drone support in the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket) project EOS – Eyes on Scene. The project will give the rescue crew an overview of the situation even before they have boarded.

Monitoring wildlife and hunt poachers in Tanzania

Monitoring wildlife and hunt poachers in Tanzania

SmartPlanes delivered drones to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in Tanzania and the use of drones has proved to be an efficient way to detect poachers. SmartPlanes has also visited Tanzania where they trained park rangers on the new systems.

SmartPlanes’ UAV Freya passed the NASA tests at Reno

SmartPlanes’ UAV Freya passed the NASA tests at Reno

The tests are one step in the process of securing the use of drones in areas where they could interfere with commercial air traffic. Successful implementation paves the way for applications such as product delivery and infrastructure inspection.
