TILLMAN BRIDGE, NV | JAN/2021

Bridge Routine Inspection- Full coverage of a 630m bridge long, using COTS Drones



Manam and AVISIGHT (UAV operator, NV ) team; completed a drone based bridge inspection for Nevada DOT (Dept. of Transportation); mostly using automated flight plans. In the Below deck  (GPS denial areas) we did manual drone based inspections.


We succeed to deliver full coverage of the Tillman Bridge above the Colorado River.  We used only COTS (of the shelf) drones, in this case DJI-P4A, MAVIC-2-Enterprise, both 20MP, 360 deg. cameras


We used unique techniques we developed in the last 3 years of R&D; to create Automatic "Flight plans" (DH software), and trained AVISIGHT's team for future surveys.


We are analyzing the bridge defects using our own propriety Manam 3DBIA Studio.
