Great video

[@Leon-pb5cr]

Very informative video. Thanks.

[@zwiftfrance]

Nice. New in that activities, I own a M2EA as well. Would like to learn more from you. Rgds.

Great video David! I'm interested in providing this type of service as well.

Amazing work, great video

[@ForTheGreys]

How do you start a career in building and roof inspection using thermal technology? There are certain certifications ive seen, but is that it? or is there a required background beyond that?

Great video! I’m looking into starting a commercial drone inspection business. For this type of job do you reach out to the property manager to get the job?

[@aaronschmidt7127]

What certifications do you have to perform/analyze thermal imaging? How often do you have your thermal camera certified/calibrated? What drone licensing do you need for this?

[@VictoriaAerial]

Advanced TC certification.

[@hendamq8965]

Ok ... how much ?

[@stepanstovpyak3401]

is that DJI 3T ?

[@Iceking007]

Why does the emissivity indicate water penetration? Could this also just not indicate poor insulation with a sealed water tight membrane?

[@VictoriaAerial]

Like bottled water, water holds heat efficiently after sundown.

Great for finding your local grow house

non evasive?

[@VictoriaAerial]

We don’t have to step on the roof to inspect or harm the gutters?

[@jeffcoffey5442]

Can you explain what you mean by drone inspections being "non evasive" do you mean "non invasive"?

[@VictoriaAerial]

It is not deceptive. It works... but invasive is the thrust. The roof is not subject to more damage by stepping on the structure.

[@thetilo8682]

interesting video! But the "pilot" jumpsuit is killing me!! 🤣😆 Please don't do this - it just looks silly!

[@VictoriaAerial]

I don't wear it often... but why not? UAV pilots wear them. What do you suggest... jeans and T shirt? It is a flight suit.

[@citizenphaid1880]

Oh come on. You don’t need thermals to see that the roof is pooling with water in the spots you say the thermal camera is picking up emissivity 😂

[@VictoriaAerial]

Oh come on😊 ? It is under the membrane that the water leaking and detected/hiding, not the visible pooling. That is the least of the worry. It detects what you cannot see. It is an addition tool and technology to help, not a silver bullet.
