Use Cases for Drones in Solar

More Data, more insights. Drones allow us to image an entire solar farm in a matter of hours. View the complete picture to help allocate maintence crews more precisely & recover lost revenue caused by equipment malfunctions. We deploy pilots to British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec.

Thermal Inspection of Solar Panels

Identify malfunctions quickly and with a higher level of percision by using drones. FlightPhoto can capture and analyise thermal and RGB maps of your entire solar farm. Thermal images help to identify damage and faults in solar panels in order to repair, replace, or request a warranty. Our pilots are certified thermographers and operate either the DJI M30T or M350. The M30T and M350 are DJI's most recent thermal inspection drones. Using drones to inspect solar farms results in higher quality data captured in less time.

FlightPhoto has online courses to help you prepare for either of Transport Canada's drone exams. We also operate drones for a variety of customers. We've recently upgraded to the DJI Inspire 3.
