Industrial SkyWorks (ISW) is a Toronto-based start-up company, which deploys Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) to provide advanced aerial imaging solutions for the building science and infrastructure industries. ISW uses UAVs equipped with high-resolution thermal and video cameras to graphically depict energy inefficiencies and identify wet insulations in the roof, façade or elsewhere by showing temperature variations within the building. A result of problems can lead to increased operational costs, occupant discomfort and other issues. ISW's solution creates detailed building envelope reports with thermography maps, 3D models and assessments using geo-referenced aerial data, delivered through cloud-based, direct to smart device platforms. Since 2014 ISW becomes the only kind of service provider in Canada for Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance's SkyBEAM (Building Envelope Asset Mapping) program. ISW's current system is inefficient at
