ZXY-Builders remote sensing solutions for automated daily workflow

ZXY-Builders provides consultancy services for remote sensing applications. We help our clients to achieve their remote sensing goals in the field of industry, construction, infrastructure and water management. We continue to develop expertise in gathering and processing remotely sensed data and associated technologies. In addition to UAV and remote sensing solutions, our expertise includes sensor data analysis, sensor networking, and project support and management.

ZXY-Builders is a technology-based company that provides operation services and also assists clients to set up a complete end-to-end UAV operating and sensor data processing solution. We develop, integrate and operate small UAVs for remote sensing applications. To plan, monitor and control a mission we use flight planning and ground control software with an elevation or three-dimensional profile. The flight planning software consists of an integrated data processing solution.

ZXY-Builders is constantly seeking to develop operational uses for remote sensing data, where the unique capabilities and cost advantages of UAV imagery find practical application. In-house development of prototypes and customised systems that incorporate remote sensing data, sensor networking and data processing supports our work.

Because of our project management we can kick-start and deliver UAV prototypes and full operational turnkey solutions. Starting from initial selection of hardware systems, airframe and software customisation to training and final delivery. Based on functional and technical requirements, we select the right UAV, autopilot system and sensor payload. We quickly get your UAV project up and running.

ZXY-Builders expertise in sensor integration, technologies and drone operations means that we can offer payloads that are field-ready and are backed with a complete data processing workflow. We assist to match the requested data requirements to the sensor payload and data workflow that is needed. We offer a range of industry-leading payload sensors to ensure the exact data needed for the assignment.

Sensor data processing is transforming imagery data. But in our vision does processing also mean combining networking technologies with Internet of Things (IoT) sensor data to create new opportunities in process automation, remote monitoring and control.

Flight path planner is a management platform to plan and control one or more UAVs at once. The software calculates the ideal path to fly for remote sensing the requested area or objects. The calculated flight path takes into account the elevation profile, obstacles and restricted areas. Central to the planner are the algorithms for flight route and tracking. It is essential to find the shortest path for maneuvering of an UAV, since the power consumed during flights has a direct impact on the length of the flight path, the performance of a UAV will invariably improve with sophisticated path planning software.

Remote sensing is a cloud of sensors in the sky and is part of an integrated sensor network. Sensor data streams directly to the web, providing invaluable data for monitoring and maintenance. A sensor network, combining multiple sky and fixed sensors, provides a real time sensing platform that connects people and systems with their surroundings. In this way we close the loop between managing and monitoring industrial systems, construction sites, infrastructure and water management.

Sensor data processing is transforming geo-tagged aerial imagery into geo-referenced models. We distinguish two-dimensional orthomosaics, three-dimensional point clouds, triangle models and Digital Elevation Models (DEMs). Sensor data processing is actually more than this. It’s mainly the analytics on top that provides the real insights, like structural integrity and predictive failures. These analytics, combined with fixed sensor data, provide actual opportunities for industrial remote monitoring and control.
