About the workshop

9 July 2018
Hilton Manchester Deansgate, Manchester M3 4LQ, UK 



This workshop will present users with information about the current progress of development for multicopters, commonly known as drones, for carrying out aerial inspections of industrial and other assets. Multicopters that can carry high-resolution cameras and thermal imaging or light detection and ranging (LIDAR) equipment are being used increasingly to conduct inspections of locations that are difficult to access or hostile to human inspectors.

The aim of the workshop is to inform delegates of the legal, safety and training requirements, supported by case studies of a variety of applications including oil & gas, wind turbines, rail, power generation and distribution. There will also be a panel discussion providing the opportunity to discuss and debate some of the key challenges.
