Power plants & substations
captured properly.
Turbine halls, boiler houses, switchyards, and transmission assets in one control story.
Why this building type gets scanned
Generation and transmission assets mix dense interior plant with sprawling energized yards. We combine terrestrial scanning inside with drone mapping outside, so outage planning and equipment replacement work from one coordinated dataset.
- Outage windows are short and expensive — pre-outage geometry shortens the critical path.
- Energized switchyards limit foot access; aerial capture keeps crews at a safe distance.
- Equipment replacement needs rigging paths, laydown areas, and clearance verification.
- Interconnection and BESS additions need current site geometry, not decade-old survey files.
How a typical project runs
We walk the site or review drawings and photos, agree the areas and density, and set control. Field work is scheduled around your operations — nights, weekends, or planned outage windows where required. After registration and QA, the deliverable set is produced and reviewed with your team so the files are usable on day one. The full workflow is on our process page.
The deliverable set follows from the questions above. That usually means interior capture of the plant, aerial mapping across the energised yard, and a maintained record the outage team can plan against next time.
- Turbine halls and boiler houses
- Switchyards and substations
- Cable trenches and duct banks
- Transformer pads and firewalls
- Cooling and water systems
- Site access and laydown areas
- Point cloud (interior + exterior)
- Site orthomosaic and DSM
- Equipment and clearance drawings
- BIM model where scoped
Where generation and grid assets get captured
Interiors are scanned from the ground and energised yards are mapped from the air, which keeps crews clear of live equipment and still lands both halves in one control network.
New York coverage includes switchyard and substation mapping in Schenectady, turbine hall scanning in Clay, pre-outage capture in Niagara Falls, and transformer pad and duct bank surveys in Tonawanda. On the New Jersey side it takes in switchyard and substation mapping in Atlantic City and turbine hall scanning in Vineland. The Connecticut side of the service area adds transformer pad and duct bank surveys in Bridgeport, generation site documentation in East Hartford, and switchyard and substation mapping in Middletown, CT.
