Jake Tyler Black Dog Walks
Walking and running the whole of the Great Britain to raise awareness of Mental Health.
We had the opportunity to meet a remarkable young man, Jake Tyler, whole lives with depression and anxiety. He decided to take back control of his health by looking at the beauty of nature that surrounds him. One day he took off on a walk and didn’t stop until he had walked and run the length of the country. The BBC One Show caught up with him to tell his story and we were delighted to provide the aerial video.

Bird Droppings, Lichen or a Cell Fault? How a Drone Solar Survey Tells Them Apart
Bird droppings and lichen both make solar cells run warm, and on a thermal image either can look like a genuine module defect. This article explains how each deposit presents, why a dropping can resemble a single cell anomaly and lichen at the frame can resemble an electrical edge pattern, and how a Level III thermographer separates surface growth from faults using the visual image, distribution and symmetry, so every finding reaches the right person.
Missing Insulation, Thermal Bridge or Air Leak: How a Drone Heat Loss Survey Tells Them Apart
A warmer patch on a heat loss thermogram can mean missing insulation, a thermal bridge or an air leak, and each sends the owner to a different specialist. This post explains how a Level III thermographer tells them apart, reading the shape and edges of each pattern against the construction of the building rather than the colour alone, why glass and metal can mislead, and why classification, not the picture, is the real value of a drone heat loss survey.
Why a Building Has to Settle Before a Heat Loss Survey: Thermal Mass Explained
A heat loss survey needs more than a cold night. It also needs a building heated steadily for long enough that heat is flowing through the walls at a settled rate. Thermal mass delays and dampens any change, so a building imaged while it is still warming up shows patterns that look like defects and are not. This post explains what thermal mass does to a thermogram and why the heating regime is agreed before a date is set.
