So I was able to run some test out in the field. Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual thermal.
And there are some good points to be made.
Though the resolution isn’t as high and as good as the 336 and 640 models of the XT2. It still sports Ocusync 2.0 multi bands, its compact and you can fly closer to structures to make up for the lower resolutions.
Thats important because as you may know in the energy field there can be lots of Radio Interference. Ocusync 2.0 helps over come this by combining both bands. 2.4 and 5.8. The collision avoidance is top notch.
In thermography, we split data into to classifications; qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative is infra red data we can interpret without external input to get temperature variations. And quantitative data is when we
compute different effects, such as emmisivity and reflectivity to get a more accurate temperature readings. Aerial thermography is mostly used for qualitative data, and thats where this drone shines.
Its low cost, light weight for safety and small for tight fits in small places and easily deployable. I understand very well, that power plants and all enterprises in the energy field is going to want the best
product delivering the highest quality data. However a small easily deployable drone that delivers just the data needed, can be a viable solution to monitoring heat dispersion quickly in vast areas.
