About AEROVISION
AEROVISION Drone Support GmbH specializes in indoor drone inspections for industry. The company offers visual inspections as well as ultrasonic measurements in the air, produces deformation measurements of vessels and 3D point clouds of shafts, channels and special structures. The focus is exclusively on the interior of facilities: vessels, tanks and boilers are inspected without scaffolding and without entry, as are industrial chimneys, pressure pipelines and galleries in hydropower, mine shafts in mines, and towers of wind turbines. The use of drones eliminates the risk to personnel in confined or hazardous areas; downtime is reduced and scaffolding and setup costs are saved. High-end drone equipment is used. The company cites more than 70 customers, over 320 missions and more than 1,200 flights. The website lists an Austrian telephone number; an official company headquarters is not stated in the sources.
