DJI Matrice 4E drone
To ensure safe drone (class 2) flights while simultaneously offering efficiency and effectiveness in providing services to clients at lower costs, we developed inovative customized aerial photogrammetry solution capable of generating point clouds of power lines using the DJI Matrice 4E.
This is the first RTK drone on the market capable of taking a photo every 0.5 seconds and simultaneously capturing oblique photos in two directions with a resolution of 20 MP, delivering precise data for post-processing on the Sky Powerlines server to generate a 3D map of cables and easements, and a report of critical distances via AI.
New aerial-photogrammetry solution:
- Small dimensions, therefore easy to transport and handle. In a case measuring only (34 x 42 x 21) cm, it houses the drone, remote control, accessories, and up to six batteries, and can be transported in the cabin of an airplane.
- Wi-Fi remote control with a high-brightness 7-inch touchscreen, easy to use even on sunny days.
- Includes charger that charges the remote control and up to 4 batteries.
- With a single battery, it is possible to map 4 km of transmission line in four 1 km flights or two 2 km flights (40 hectares).
- Lower cost of the drone and batteries when compared to models with LiDAR.
Step by step service
This short video presents the steps:
1) Receiving the coordinates of the power grid towers
2) Generating the flight plan
3) Executing the flight plan
4) Processing the data using AI
5) Delivering the reports
Application case
At client HRZ Transmissoras (ACTIS Group), comparing inspection by patrolling, our service reduced the cost by around EUR 360K with vegetation cutting and detection of critical situation for fire/shutdown in more than 350 network spans in 410 km previously unidentified. With a team we did the work in 3 months. Cost 80% lower than the quote for the service via helicopter with LiDAR.
- Drone piloted by the customer after training in 5 days. Services performed with VLOS flights (very safe).

Application case
At Engie do Brasil, we inspected 170 km of network and our service was considered the best innovation project in Engie Brasil's INOVE 2023 program. Recently approved new Engie innovation project for 2024.
- Services performed with VLOS flights (very safe).
