Effective inspection methods for structures (roads, tunnels, bridges, etc.) built simultaneously during the high-growth period 50 years ago.
Infrastructure such as roads, tunnels, and bridges, built en masse during the period of rapid economic growth over 50 years ago, is deteriorating as inspections have not kept pace. In 2014, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism mandated regular inspections every five years for bridges and tunnels over 2 meters in height, conducted through close visual inspections. However, due to issues related to personnel and budget shortages, the introduction of drones for some inspections has gained attention. Inspections using drones include checking high-altitude equipment, solar panels, utility poles and transmission towers, inspections during disasters, and examining the exteriors and roofs of houses and facilities. 【Features of Infrastructure Inspections】 ■ High-quality inspection records due to improved camera performance ■ Enhanced safety due to improved drone performance ■ Ensured safety of on-site work by eliminating the need to access dangerous areas ■ Reliable on-site records secured through video data recording *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Company information
"The Era of Utilizing Drones for Infrastructure Inspections and Maintenance" Many infrastructures, such as roads, bridges, and tunnels, which were built en masse during the period of rapid economic growth, are now over 50 years old, and inspections have not kept pace, leading to neglect. For example, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism mandated in 2014 that bridges and tunnels over 2 meters in height undergo regular inspections through close visual observation every five years; however, issues have arisen due to personnel and budget shortages. As a result, the introduction of drones for some inspections has begun to attract attention, and we are now in an era where drone operations are commonplace. Towa Drone Service supports the promotion of digital transformation (DX) at customer sites by converting inspection and survey data for public and power infrastructures into 3D formats.
