We were delighted to be invited to come and film alongside the team from the BBC’s The One Show down at the Swanage Railway.
We were part of an article that they were creating regarding the rejoining of the Swanage train station to the main railway line, something that’s been achieved through a huge amount of work by a team of volunteers in a large part. We were to provide aerial footage of the beautiful steam engine puffing its way along the route – the chocolate box Dorset countryside and you really couldn’t ask for a more picturesque backdrop.
A very friendly farmer allowed us to use his field as a takeoff and landing site as it was adjacent to the rail track, giving us the opportunity to get beautiful views of the train as it headed over from Corfe Castle towards Swanage. Then we moved off to Norden station where we were able to interact even more closely with the train as it left the current final station on the line, filming almost trackside to create rising views of the drone disappearing into the steam plumes as the engine chugged beneath.
Despite relatively high winds on the day, our Matrice and Inspire fleet of craft were more than equal to the task of creating stable and stylish footage to capture both the engine and the environment with plenty pieces of the footage being used in the finished piece on BBC 1.
Seasonal Window for Building Thermography is Closing Soon
As winter's chill recedes, the optimal period for building thermography is ending. This technology relies on temperature differences to detect energy inefficiencies. With spring's arrival, these disparities diminish, making it harder to identify problem areas. Act now to ensure your building's energy efficiency before the seasonal window closes.
Roof Thermography Solar Inspections: A Guide to IEC 62446-3:2017 Standards
This guide provides an in-depth understanding of commercial roof thermography solar panel inspections, focusing on the IEC 62446-3:2017 standards. It covers the importance of these inspections, the process involved, and how to interpret the results, ensuring your solar panels are efficient, safe, and compliant with international standards.
Essential Planning for Springtime Solar Panel Inspection
Ensure your solar panels are spring-ready with these 5 essential steps: 1) Pre-inspection planning, 2) Drone setup and calibration, 3) Aerial thermal imaging scan, 4) Data analysis and interpretation, and 5) Post-inspection maintenance. Utilize thermal imaging drones for efficient, accurate, and safe solar panel inspections this spring.
