Live Monitoring During Our Drone Flights: An Extra Service for Our Clients

At DroneView.be, we are constantly striving to improve our services. We understand how important it is to have real-time insights during an inspection or search and rescue operation. That’s why we have recently added an external 32” monitor to our equipment, allowing you to follow our drone flights live.

Why an External Monitor?

During construction inspections, the monitor provides immediate visual access to the images captured by the drone. This allows you to assess project progress on-site and take action if necessary. Not only does this simplify decision-making, but it also ensures greater transparency and involvement.

In search and rescue operations, speed is crucial. By following the live images directly on the monitor, rescue teams and stakeholders can immediately respond to what the drone captures. This saves valuable seconds and enables faster action.

DJI Zenmuse Z30: Ultimate Zoom Capability for Drone Inspections

At Droneview.be, we use the DJI Zenmuse Z30 for detailed drone inspections requiring extreme zoom. With 30x optical zoom and 6x digital zoom, this camera provides unparalleled capabilities for inspecting infrastructure, buildings, and industrial facilities without bringing the drone dangerously close.

Why Choose the Zenmuse Z30?

The Z30 is designed for professionals working in inspection, security, and monitoring. Its main advantages include:

  • Extreme detail without risk: Thanks to its powerful zoom, we can capture small details from a safe distance, such as cracks in a tower or loose bolts on a wind turbine.
  • Efficiency: Traditional inspections often require scaffolding or rope access. With the Z30, we can complete a thorough visual inspection in minutes.
  • Fast data collection: High-resolution images from a distance allow for quick assessments and faster decision-making.

Why new solar panel installations should also be tested

At Droneview.be, we regularly inspect older solar panel installations to detect defects and efficiency losses. However, we recently encountered an unexpected issue at a client’s site: a brand-new installation from November 2024 had three panels with faulty cells. This proves that testing is not only essential for older systems but also for new installations.

Defects in new panels: how is this possible?

Although you’d expect new solar panels to work flawlessly, defects can occur during manufacturing, transport, or installation. The three defective panels in this installation had damaged cells, which can lead to:

  • Reduced energy output: A single defective panel can negatively impact the entire string’s performance.
  • Higher internal resistance and heat buildup: This can shorten the panel’s lifespan and pose safety risks.
  • Potential warranty issues: If defects are not detected in time, claiming warranty replacements can become more complicated.

Why Drones Are Essential for Inspecting Storm and Hail Damage

Storms and hail can cause significant damage to buildings and infrastructure. From dislodged roof tiles to damaged solar panels and façades, it’s crucial to assess the damage quickly and accurately to prevent further issues. Traditional inspection methods can be time-consuming, costly, and even dangerous. Drones offer an innovative solution: fast, safe, and highly detailed.

Benefits of Drone Inspections for Storm Damage

  1. Safety First
    Inspecting roofs, façades, and other tall structures can be risky, especially if the damage has made the building unstable. Drones eliminate the need for ladders, scaffolding, and dangerous climbing. Inspections can be conducted entirely from a safe distance, even in hard-to-reach or hazardous areas.
  2. Fast and Efficient Damage Assessment
    While a manual inspection can take hours, a drone can survey a large area in just minutes. This is particularly valuable after storms that have affected multiple buildings, such as in residential neighborhoods or industrial sites.
  3. High Precision with Advanced Technology
    Drones equipped with high-quality cameras like the Zenmuse Z30 or thermal cameras such as the Zenmuse XT2 can detect even the smallest cracks, missing roof tiles, or hidden damage. Thermal images are particularly useful for identifying where water or cold air is seeping through the structure.

The Power of Drone Photography in Belgium: A New Dimension in Visual Experience

The rise of drone photography has permanently transformed how we capture and inspect the world. Whether it’s for real estate presentations, building inspections, thermal analyses, or event coverage, drones offer unique opportunities to create stunning aerial shots. In Belgium, the demand for professional drone photography is rapidly growing, creating opportunities for individuals and businesses alike.

What Makes Drone Photography Unique?

Drone photography provides a perspective that traditional methods simply can’t match. With our drones, we can effortlessly inspect tall buildings, map vast agricultural fields, or monitor the progress of construction projects. Thanks to advanced technologies like the Zenmuse XT for thermal imaging and the Zenmuse Z30 for detailed zoom, issues such as heat loss, defective solar panels, or structural damage can be identified quickly and efficiently.
