Professional Viewpoint: How Drones Overcome Major Obstacles in Pipeline Surveys

The following is a guest post by Dustin Price, a licensed land surveyor and the Operations Manager at Landpoint.

For pipeline surveys, there is a lot that needs to be considered: speed, accuracy, budget, and safety. Pipeline surveys occur at critical junctures of oil field and pipeline projects.

UAVs can help pipeline surveying overcome some major obstacles, and the advantages of drone technology in this field are only increasing as the technology becomes more advanced.
