Skylux Drone Services performs drone aerial inspection services. At SDS, we utilize Unmanned Aerial Vehicles – UAV (a.k.a. Drones) to inspect structures and fixed assets including, but not limited to:
SDS uses the latest in drone inspection technology utilizing Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) systems that allow navigation by global positioning. The RTK system is accurate to within a centimeter, which allows for pinpoint localized spotting.

Our drones feature various camera mounts for infrared and high-resolution with optical and digital zoom. Extended flight times accommodate the heights and conditions associated with taller structure inspections.
