Case Study: Azure Integrity improves culvert inspection safety and speed with Flyability’s Elios 3

Azure Integrity completes an 80-meter culvert inspection in under a day with Flyability

Azure Integrity, an industrial drone service provider, faced the challenge of inspecting a previously inaccessible 80-meter culvert at a major open-cut mine in Australia. The confined space, unknown water levels, and safety risks made traditional inspection methods impossible. They utilized the Elios 3 drone from Flyability to safely conduct a visual survey of the asset.

The solution from Flyability provided the flexibility to adapt when a colony of bats halted the initial daytime flight; the inspection was successfully completed at night using the drone's powerful lighting system. The Elios 3 gathered comprehensive visual data in less than a day, which engineers used to assess the culvert's structural integrity. This allowed Azure Integrity to improve site safety without putting personnel at risk and successfully proved the concept of drone inspections for the mine client.
