This week's TCR_Cast looks up...looks wayyyyy up, as we discuss the future of drones in construction as well as the value of telematics with SITECHMIDCANADA and finningcanada. Have a listen!
Pallister explained how drones help not only with inspections but to create point clouds that can then be integrated with telematics readings from heavy equipment. Gibbons said practically all of Finning’s equipment is built with or fitted for telematics enabling further data collection.
Pallister said emerging sectors for drones include the forestry sector as well as in inspections of infrastructure in need of repair. Gibbons said more and more areas are gaining connectivity and different technologies from satellite to wifi and Bluetooth are being used to gather data depending on conditions and the work environment.
