How utility companies can benefit from the Mosaic 51
Efficient planning for new projects
Before undertaking a new utilities project, extensive information is necessary concerning other infrastructure in place and the surrounding environment.
The Mosaic 51 is a 360-degree camera capable of capturing all views of a given location, providing vital information such as the local vegetation, the gradient of the roads, and the occurrence of hills and mountains.
With this information utility companies will be able to properly plan, schedule, and budget their projects from a remote location.
Remote inspection of assets and environment
Once a project has been completed, it is still necessary to stay in-the-know about the conditions concerning the utility pole, transformer, or pipes.
The natural environment and climate can be unpredictable and changes can occur at the drop of a hat, causing potential issues for utility companies.
It is necessary to maintain a real-time map of the area and the assets, which is not possible with manual surveys or site checks. But an HD camera with mobile mapping abilities, like the Mosaic 51, is the perfect solution to handle these sorts of constraints.
Keeping an eye on Mother Nature
Vegetation can be one of the most complicated issues for utility companies.
Unattended vegetation can lead to many problems down the road as it can interfere with cables, electrical lines, and poles.
Depending on the nature of the vegetation, it is possible that changes occur in a very short span of time, making it nearly impossible, or at the least, very expensive, for utility companies to stay on top of its management. However, mobile mapping technology is a fast, easy, and cost-effective way to be on the lookout for possible problems.
