Guide

How to plan a useful PV thermal inspection by drone

A useful PV inspection depends on the installation data, operating conditions, systematic capture and a clear reporting format, as well as the thermal camera. Together, these factors determine whether the maintenance team can act on the observations.

How much do drone services cost? Build a realistic starting budget

A useful estimate starts with the closest defined scope, then adds reporting, the selected delivery option and return travel for every visit. The calculator gives a transparent starting point before the location and operation are reviewed.

05, FAQ

Solar & PV inspections

01What can thermal PV imagery show?+

It can highlight hotspots and uneven temperature patterns that may identify modules or areas requiring closer electrical or physical verification.

02Can a drone inspection replace electrical testing?+

A drone inspection provides rapid screening and documentation. Qualified personnel must carry out the electrical testing and final diagnosis where required.

Send the asset, location and decision your team needs to make.

Include the site coordinates, asset type and scale, preferred operating window and required outputs. Aeronautiq will review feasibility and return with any missing requirements and a defined scope.

What happens after you send the brief

  1. We check whether the information is complete and the work is feasible
  2. We ask only for details that are still missing
  3. You receive a proposed scope and individual quote

Prefer to speak before sending the brief?

Operational base: Szczecin, Poland. Germany and European assignments are confirmed only after reviewing asset access, local regulations, airspace, permits, safety, weather and logistics.
