Specializing in data generation, integration, and analysis, we leverage extensive experience in aerial surveys to deliver high-quality geospatial data, including advanced imagery, point clouds, hyperspectral, thermal, and video airborne mapping. Our solutions cater to a diverse client base, including midstream utilities, engineering firms, and environmental assessment projects.

By delivering high-resolution point clouds and orthoimagery that surpass client expectations, we enable accurate land base data critical for safe and efficient pipeline operations. Building on this robust foundation, we provide analytic solutions such as structure classification, vegetation characterization, encroachment analysis, terrain hazard detection, emergency response data, greenfield surveys, and environmental evaluations to ensure the integrity and safety of oil and gas infrastructure.

Above Ground Pipeline Integrity Analysis
System-wide elevation measurements along pipeline tops can
detect pipes deflecting beyond established tolerances with high
accuracy. Annual surveys track movement, aiding in planning and
prioritizing mitigation efforts. Mapping above-ground oil pipelines
and conducting integrity analysis can identify supports sinking or
shifting due to freeze/thaw cycles or terrain movements. UAVisus
Technology Limited collects high-density airborne LiDAR data,
comparing horizontal support members (HSMs) to client pipeline
databases. Vectors are created in Bentley MicroStation for each
HSM identified in the LiDAR point cloud, and the tilt angle is
calculated to identify structures at risk of causing pipeline failure
due to frost heave or permafrost thaw.
HCA and Class Coding Analysis
Understanding the proximity of infrastructure to pipeline operations
is essential for safety and compliance. High Consequence Area
(HCA) and Code Classing analysis assess pipeline safety risks and
ensure regulatory compliance. In collaboration with clients,
UAVisus Technology Limited evaluates the Potential Impact Radius
(PIR)—the distance at which death, injury, or significant damage
could occur from an explosion. PIR areas are tested and mapped
along the pipeline corridor, with vector boundaries delivered. Each
PIR area is attributed with the population it affects, allowing
UAVisus Technology Limited to identify safety risks for any section
of pipeline.
AIRBORNE LIDAR MAPPING
Airborne LiDAR data provides location and elevation information that defines the surface of the earth and the heights of above-ground features. With a suite of LiDAR sensors and advanced processing and production techniques, UAVisus is an innovation technology promoter in the LiDAR industry.
SURVEYING DRONES & PAYLOADS
A range of drone models and payloads is available, each tailored for different applications, ensuring high precision and efficiency in data collection, even in challenging areas.
