Programme Highlights

Unmanned Aerial System is becoming widely adopted in the field of surveying and building inspection. Apart from simply “putting an eye in the sky”, the integration with artificial intelligence and software platform can further broaden the compatibilities of aerial inspections.

The talk will focus on how to apply latest software tools to facilitate the inspection process. Automated report preparation process will be demonstrated with a case study, simulating the workflow process of a building inspection project. The pros of adopting A.I. will be illustrated by benchmarking to the traditional practice.
