FROM IMAGE TO ASSET DATA

From Aerial Image Capture to Blade-level O&M Data

Wind inspection is not only about high-resolution images; each image must correspond to the correct turbine, blade and surface location. A unified mission chain connects field capture with office analysis so results can be reviewed, archived and accumulated.

OPERATIONAL GAPS

Four Data Breakpoints in Aerial Blade Inspection

01

Limited Viewing Distance and Angle

Ground observation cannot consistently reveal surface details on elevated blades, and results are affected by distance, lighting and angle.

02

Heavy Manual-flight Workload

Manually approaching three blades while maintaining consistent distance and angle requires substantial pilot experience and field coordination.

03

Scattered Images Are Hard to Review

Large, dispersed image sets lack structured relationships between blades, surface directions and positions.

04

Results Do Not Form a Closed Loop

Capture, screening, review and reporting are separated, limiting cross-cycle comparison and maintenance localization.

ONE TURBINE · ONE DATA RECORD

Organize a Reusable Mission around Each Turbine

Starting from turbine parameters and field pose, the system generates an inspection mission. The drone captures key blade surfaces, and the platform organizes results by turbine, blade and direction.

INTEGRATED SYSTEM

Coordination across Airborne, Ground and Platform Systems

Four core modules collaborate around one inspection mission, reducing information gaps between field and office work.

AIR

M400 Drone Platform

Carries navigation and imaging equipment to execute route flight and waypoint capture around turbines.

NAV

INES Onboard Navigation

Integrated positioning, perception and control provide onboard support for route execution.

GCS

AGS Ground Station

Handles parameter entry, mission configuration, camera control, status monitoring and necessary field intervention.

AI

Wind-Turbine Inspection Platform

Manages wind farms, turbines, blades, images and suspected defects, supporting stitching, review and reporting.

STANDARD WORKFLOW

Six Steps Connect Field and Office Work

01

Create the Mission Record

Enter turbine and blade parameters to establish the data basis for mission planning.

02

Confirm Field Pose

Confirm turbine orientation, blade position and safe operating conditions from field status.

03

Generate the Inspection Route

Generate mission routes and capture actions around target blades and planned viewpoints.

04

Execute Image Capture

The drone executes the mission while AGS monitors flight, link, camera and capture progress.

05

Stitching & Defect Review

The platform organizes multi-view images, assists screening and supports professional confirmation.

06

Reporting & Archiving

Archive results by wind farm, turbine and blade to create viewable, traceable reports.

AGS MISSION CONTROL

Centralized Route, Camera and Flight-status Management

AGS supports inspection mission setup, flight-status viewing and camera control. Operators can track route progress and intervene when necessary from one interface.

  • Turbine parameters and mission-route configuration
  • Flight attitude, link and battery monitoring
  • Capture parameters and acquisition progress

OPERATIONAL VALUE

Turn Each Inspection into Long-term Asset Data

01

Standardized Capture

Reusable missions reduce capture differences between personnel and flights.

02

Structured Blade Data

Organize images and suspected defects by wind farm, turbine, blade and surface direction.

03

Traceable Defect Locations

Link abnormal images to a turbine, blade and relative position for efficient field reinspection.

04

Accumulated Inspection Results

Retain inspection records and reports as a basis for future comparison and maintenance planning.
