Fleet Control & Remote Inspection

Inspection is field work, with real cost and real exposure attached to it. What changes is how much of the network a team can reach, and how much of what they saw survives the trip back.

Coverage that is not limited by the route

Assets are reached from the air rather than on foot, so a team covers more of the network in a working day, including the spans a walking round tends to leave for later.

Crews stay clear of the hazard

Elevated structures, energised equipment, and difficult terrain are inspected remotely. The inspection still happens, and nobody has to stand next to the asset to do it.

The office sees what the field saw

Telemetry and replay travel with every capture, so a reviewer at a desk works from the same recorded pass the crew flew, rather than from a written summary of it.

Inspection work has to hold up after the fact. A record that shows what was covered, when, and under what conditions is worth more than a completed checklist.

Proof that the inspection happened

Every mission leaves a record of the assets covered and the date they were covered, so an inspection obligation is evidenced rather than asserted.

Conditions recorded with the capture

Telemetry recorded alongside each capture fixes the position and the circumstances it was taken under, so a finding can still be placed in context long after the flight.

A reviewable trail from flight to finding

Mission, capture, telemetry, and finding are held together as one record, so any conclusion can be traced back to the pass it came from.

Findings are reviewed before they become work

A capture becomes an inspection finding only once a reviewer confirms it. Nothing is escalated into operational work without a person agreeing to it.

Prepared for NIS2 obligations

Fleet Control & Remote Inspection is designed for the record keeping and oversight duties placed on critical infrastructure operators.

Data sovereignty where it is required

Operators who need it can run Fleet Control & Remote Inspection inside their own infrastructure, keeping inspection records and flight data under their own control.

Inspection is a recurring operational cost, and the network only grows. What it costs depends on how much of it a crew has to reach in person.

Coverage that scales with the network

Remote inspection reaches assets that would otherwise need a crew and a vehicle at every location, so inspection effort follows the size of the network rather than the size of the team.

Exposure removed is cost removed

Work at height and close to energised equipment carries real exposure for the people doing it. Inspecting remotely takes them out of that position, and takes the cost that follows an incident with it.

Spend argued from what was observed

Findings arrive recorded and attached to named assets, so inspection and maintenance budgets are justified by what the field returned rather than by a fixed schedule.

Inspection is organised in three ways today. Each of them limits either what can be reached or what can be trusted afterwards.

Inspection rounds walked on foot

Coverage is bounded by what a crew can reach in a shift, and the awkward assets are the ones that get deferred. REDXGRID reaches them remotely and brings back a record of the pass.

Drone flying kept apart from the asset record

Pilots fly, files land in a folder, and somebody matches them to assets afterwards. REDXGRID plans the mission against the assets and returns the evidence already attached to them.

Flight tools that stop at the aircraft

General flight operations tools manage aircraft, batteries, and logs, and say nothing about the condition of what was inspected. REDXGRID treats the flight as one step inside an inspection record.

Field evidence is only worth what it can be checked against later. This is what makes a record from Fleet Control & Remote Inspection reviewable rather than anecdotal.

The same mission returns the same record

Inspection is flown to a defined mission rather than improvised on the day, so two passes over the same asset are comparable and change between them can be seen.

Position and conditions travel with the capture

Telemetry recorded through the flight fixes where a capture was taken and under what conditions, so a reviewer is not left inferring context from the image alone.

Replay instead of recollection

A completed flight can be replayed with its telemetry, so a finding is re-examined against the recorded pass rather than against what the crew remembers of it.
