AI reducing the risk and cost
of building inspections
80% reduction in cost per meter
Increased coverage of inspection
Decrease inspection time by 70%
Opportunity
Building inspections are labour intensive, costly and dangerous. Drones have been introduced to the process to address this but a person is still required to analyse the images.
Solution
Silverpond used its tool HighLighter to train software to recognise building defects on 3D models of the building from drone collected data.
Results
-Reduced the inspection costs from $0.35/metre to $0.07/metre.
-Decreased inspection time by 70%.
-Removed requirements for rooftop inspection by a person for over 600 buildings.
-Increased the total coverage of a traditional inspection from 15% to 100% of the
building’s surface area.
