Natural Power has acquired an aerial imaging surveyor, called the Trimble UX5.
Whilst the system has been focussed on large wind and tidal renewable energy projects to date, it is ideally suited to any type of large or small scale project development, the company said.
The new resource provides wider opportunities for front end, engineering design and optimisation to fully realise the potential of new projects, and can also monitor live construction progress as well as environmental variables, and help to identify issues rapidly, particularly in the case of inaccessible project sites.
The Trimble UX5 has recently been deployed from a windswept hillside overlooking the Isle of Arran, Scotland, as part of its first commercial deployment.
