Thermal Imaging & Inspection
Calibrated radiometric thermal capture for roof moisture mapping, PV array fault-finding, and electrical inspection. You receive the radiometric files themselves, so your engineer can pull temperatures at any point rather than trusting our screenshot.

Process
How the job runs
01
Pick the thermal window
Roof surveys fly after sunset when trapped moisture reads hottest. PV arrays fly under load at full irradiance. The window matters more than the sensor.
02
Fly the survey
Gridded thermal capture with simultaneous RGB, at an altitude that keeps resolution above the anomaly detection threshold.
03
Analyze
Anomalies are located, classified by severity, and tied to a roof section or array string.
04
Report
Findings summary plus the raw radiometric files, so anyone downstream can verify the numbers.

Listing media that moves properties faster
Aerial stills and video that show lot lines, proximity, and scale in a way ground photography cannot.

Documented progress your owner and your subs both trust
Repeatable flight plans flown from the same waypoints every visit, so month three lines up with month one.

Radiometric data, not just pretty pictures
Roof moisture surveys, PV array fault-finding, and infrastructure condition assessment flown with calibrated radiometric sensors.

About thermal inspection
Do you provide a certified thermography report?
We provide the radiometric data, anomaly mapping, and a findings summary. Where a stamped Level II thermographer report is required, we work alongside your thermographer or refer one.
Why does a roof scan have to be at night?
Wet insulation holds heat longer than dry insulation. After sunset the dry roof cools and the wet areas glow. Fly it at noon and you see nothing but sun load.
