Case Study: a Texas utility improves reliability and asset inspection with Davey Resource Group drone services

DRG's Drone Fleet Tackles State-Spanning Project completes Texas utility inspection in 1.5 months with Davey

The customer DRG's Drone Fleet Tackles State-Spanning Project, a Texas utility, required a comprehensive visual inspection of assets across the state to improve electric service reliability. The vendor Davey, through its Davey Resource Group (DRG), employed its fleet of U.S. drones and proprietary ResourceKeeper software for high-resolution data collection and organization.

Davey's solution utilized FAA-certified pilots and drones to capture imagery, completing the statewide project in just a month and a half. The real-time data and 360 imagery enabled the utility to quickly identify and prioritize maintenance and vegetation management. As a result, Davey helped the client make informed, proactive decisions to improve safety, promote efficiencies, and enhance overall reliability.
