Drones are the future of large structure inspection. Where manual inspection takes weeks, even months and costs hundreds of thousands of pounds, a drone can do the same job for a fraction of the time and money, and more efficiently. However, drones can only assist in collecting images, leaving surveyors hundreds of photos with no clear idea of the location of a damaged part that has been identified. Inspectors need to trace the flight path to find the location of each photo manually. Our software will help automate this process. My team and I aim to develop a software that creates a single fully mapped image, from photos or videos taken by the drone. This allow for inspectors to quickly navigate through large files from an overview image. Inspectors can zoom in and select areas to pull out the original photos, making it faster and easier to see areas of damage and estimate severity. Our target markets are Drone surveyors and Inspectors that work with aerial footages in 2 main industries - Wind turbine inspection and Building inspection.

无人机是大型结构检测的未来。人工检查需要数周甚至数月，成本高达数十万英镑，而无人机可以用更少的时间和金钱完成同样的工作，而且效率更高。然而，无人机只能协助收集图像，让调查人员无法清楚地了解已识别的受损部件的位置。检查人员需要手动追踪飞行路径，找到每张照片的位置。我们的软件将帮助自动化这一过程。我和我的团队的目标是开发一种软件，可以从无人机拍摄的照片或视频中创建一个完整的地图图像。这允许检查员从概览图像快速浏览大文件。检查人员可以放大并选择区域以拉出原始照片，从而更快，更容易地查看损坏区域并估计严重程度。我们的目标市场是无人机测量师和检查员，他们在两个主要行业中使用空中镜头-风力涡轮机检查和建筑检查。
