ELECTRIC UTILITIES
From LiDAR acquisition to advanced modeling, we provide end-to-end solutions that keep your projects compliant and on-schedule. Our expertise spans PLS-CADD, POLE, TOWER, and underbuild modeling. Whether it’s vegetation management, hard surface detections, thermal rating reports, or NESC/NERC compliance, we turn complex data into actionable insights—helping you reduce risk and maximize reliability.
METHOD 1 MODELING
Method 1 models are used as the basis for vegetation management, hard surface detections, and thermal rating reports. These digital twins are an essential and cost-effective method for ensuring NESC and NERC compliance.
VEGETATION MANAGEMENT
Using our high-accuracy Method 1 models and dense lidar collection, we run vegetation detections along your circuits. We analyze threats in as-surveyed, maximum sag, and blowout conditions, giving you complete confidence in any weather scenario.
ATTACHMENT POINT CREATION
We create attachment points to your specifications, including structure bottom, structure top, shield wire, insulator, conductor, and joint use attachments. These can be used to rapidly create Method 1 models using AMBER within PLS-CADD.
SUBSTATION SURVEYS
We include high density surveys of substations along your circuits. These are used to identify vegetation encroachments near the substation and provide substation fence or wall heights.
ORTHOIMAGERY
We provide up to 1.2” GSD orthoimagery in our .bak files. This high-resolution imagery is a valuable addition to the lidar dataset, adding true-color, context, and identifying access roads.
OBLIQUES
We provide high definition obliques from multiple angles, cropped and centered on your structures for easy identification of features, equipment, issues, and access.
