Industrial Drone Inspections
Safer, faster, more detailed inspections for industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, and infrastructure using advanced drone technology across NC.
Industry Overview
Industrial facilities contain complex, hard-to-reach, and hazardous infrastructure. Putting personnel at risk for routine visual inspections is no longer necessary. Holmes and Watson deploys advanced drones to inspect cooling towers, smokestacks, pipelines, structural steel, and electrical equipment — providing plant engineers with critical condition data without scaffolding, rope access, or significant downtime.
Key Inspection Targets
- Cooling towers and exhaust stacks
- Pipelines and structural supports
- Storage tanks and silos
- Flare stacks and flare tips
- Substations and electrical infrastructure (thermal)
- Process equipment thermal anomalies
Operational Process
Safety Integration
Integrating our operations with your plant's safety protocols and permit systems.
Targeted Inspection
Flying close-proximity, high-zoom visual and thermal missions.
Data Processing
Organizing vast amounts of data into usable formats for engineering review.
Engineering Support
Providing the precise data structural engineers need for fitness-for-service evaluations.
Final Deliverables
Organized high-zoom photo galleries, thermal anomaly reports, 3D point clouds for spatial analysis, and engineering-grade documentation.
