CONTROL SERVICES FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

  • Unauthorized building
  • Unauthorized deforestation
  • Dumps, industrial dumping
  • River and costal pollution
  • Gas pipelines and long-distance power lines
  • Urban and suburban traffic monitoring
  • Railway and motorway monitoring
  • Risk-exposed mountain areas monitoring
  • River banks, coastal erosion monitoring

The helicopter is the most suitable means to monitor any terrestrial activity or phenomenon. New observation items, such as the checking of pollution sources, are flanking the traditional observation items (gas pipelines, oil pipelines, power lines, parks and nature reserves). By monitoring both natural and anthropic events it is possible to check rivers, lakes, see coasts, dumps, industrial settlements, and in so doing, it is possible to detect in advance the possible pollution sources. To support the watching activity it is possible to perform photo-cinematographic shooting, also in the infrared mode, to better put into evidence and document the observation item. Through computerized graphics on video it is also possible to plan some works in order to detect their impact on the territory and find out their correct location.
