Information

GGI’s roadmap to the digital and automated utility asset and vegetation management (UAVM) solutions include remote sensing (LiDAR, SAR, UV and imagery) and change detection on LiDAR point cloud and imagery, predictive analytics and machine vision & learning-augmented artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in concert.

Technologies are augmenting traditional asset and vegetation inspection processes for efficiency and effectiveness, not eliminating traditional practices. We have highly experienced powerline inspectors and ISA certified vegetation inspectors to implement technologies in most efficient and effective manner. Please watch the following video message of our unique LiDAR workflow for powerline asset and vegetation management and subscribe to our channel by clicking the green and gold “G” on the upper left corner of the video frame.

GGI is committed to working with the electric and gas utilities at each of the above stages in the vegetation management automation process. Please contact us to discuss your project.

How It Works

We collected LiDAR data of approximately 20 square miles area containing Transmission and Distribution powerlines concurrently to validate the most modern airborne LiDAR sensor from a fixed wing aircraft using wide-area collection mode. This is the most efficient, effective and accurate mode of LiDAR data collection for powerlines and vegetation. This 3D model of classified LiDAR point cloud is a section of an as-built Transmission circuit right-of-way (approximately 3500 ft long x 500 ft wide) in rugged high fire threat terrain. This model is a very high quality input for our proprietary powerline asset and vegetation management analytics. We can calculate vegetation encroachment and powerline clearance within centimeters level accuracy. 

This is a great periodic inspection tool (until real-time monitoring with iSIU® is enabled) to verify that the vegetation has been maintained and there are no immediate remedial actions required. We are capable of collecting, processing and delivering 100s of miles of LiDAR-derived Transmission and Distribution network vegetation analytics quickly.

UAVM Benefits

Real-time monitoring and early detection of hazards reduce the risk of accidents and wildfires.

Continuous assessment ensures consistent and stable power distribution.

Automated processes streamline maintenance, reducing costs and resource allocation.

Proactive vegetation management minimizes environmental impact and preserves natural resources.
