DRONELIFE Staff Writer Ian M. Crosby
Today, advanced inspection service providers Zeitview announced its AI support Property Insights Platform We are expanding. The company currently offers thermal capabilities for commercial facilities and AI/ML damage assessment capabilities for commercial, residential and multi-family properties. The Property Insights platform leverages high-resolution aerial imagery of roofs captured from drone flights to assess roof condition, identify anomalies, and recommend optimal maintenance schedules.
Zeitview’s solution eliminates the errors and risk of injury caused by time-consuming manual inspections and provides a fully transparent damage assessment in minutes. Deploying drones for inspection and analysis can identify areas of potential moisture under the roof membrane and energy loss around the façade, allowing the problem to be addressed proactively. AI/ML technology identifies common roof anomalies that need attention, and AI vision highlights non-feature areas of the roof itself.
Dan Burton, Founder and CEO of Zeitview, said: “Our comprehensive analytics enable our clients to make faster decisions about the real-time condition of each property while increasing efficiency and maximizing deliverables. Our client partnerships have grown to include pre- and post-construction imagery, thermal analysis, and conditional analysis of properties nationwide, to provide a robust reporting and one-stop shop for drone services that are relevant to our customers.”
Our in-house team of roofing experts analyzes the images in the software, assesses the damage and creates a professional condition report. In this report, each anomaly is overlaid on a 2D orthomosaic map that forms a highly accurate reproduction of the roof. The platform features customizable thermal and measurement reports to pinpoint the exact location of each variation on the roof. Triage sub-membrane roof anomalies using additional thermal analysis with qualitative temperature data and visualization. Customers can also use captured images to create their own reports through the Property Insights platform.
“Advanced inspections are rapidly becoming more accessible through the use of drones and other smart technologies and are seeing increased adoption by roofing contractors, manufacturers, commercial real estate, property managers and insurance adjusters. “Given the highly reliable data provided by aerial imagery, we are excited to begin this expansion of our Property Insights platform to provide our customers with the tools to standardize information while speeding up workflows and reducing costs.” We are excited to help our clients get the first line of defense across their entire property portfolio in one place so they can quickly filter information and get to what matters most about the condition of their properties. I would like to.”
Zeitview uses its advanced analytics to improve the accuracy and safety of roof inspections, while making the process faster and more affordable. The easy-to-use Property Insights Platform creates customizable reports that can be downloaded and shared for use by insurance companies, roofing contractors, and property managers to estimate repair costs and prioritize projects. increase.
