International Seminar / Workshop on:
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) use for
Infrastructure Inspection needs
(Gas&Oil Pipes, Electrical Networks, Railways and more),
Component Condition Monitoring & Maintenance Planning

There are many professional events focusing purely on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)
technology yet the benefits of UAVs and the use of their derived data are often overlooked.
Recently, we see that Infrastructure Companies have increasing interest to understand the
possibility of using UAVs for their inspection needs, Component Conditions monitoring,
Maintenance Planning, Security Inspections, etc. This is a very promising emerging market
awaiting proper rules and standardization.
This Seminar “UAVs’ use for Infrastructure Inspection needs, Component Condition
Monitoring & Maintenance Planning” is one-day event that aims to bridge that gap by
delivering an educational seminar program revealing the important stages within the UAV
“journey” including topics on the various types of UAVs available for those kind of missions,
matching the best UAV for the task at hand, how to plan a survey, making raw data usable
and end user specific applications.
In a broader context, mission and trajectory planners must yield acceptable low-cost
solutions for single UAVs or coordinated teams operating nominally or, worst-case, in nonoptimal, “unfriendly” or uncertain environments – such as Overhead Power Lines, with
degraded performance characteristics. Under a new paradigm, humans are "on the loop"
rather than “in the loop”, thus de facto “mission managers” and “theatre commanders” armed
and supported by an array of computational tools. These tools are now capable to acquire
and accurately summarize mission-critical information for human supervisors while providing
the underlying infrastructure that plans and executes missions in accordance with specified
high-level directives.
This particular seminar will enable its attendees to gain a thorough insight into this fast
moving market by meeting face to face with UAV producers, commercial suppliers of
dedicated UAV equipment, IT infrastructure and Government Agencies (Regulators) and
hearing directly from Infrastructure Industry speakers, UAV producers and Service Providers
who are using this exciting technology.

Gain a direct insight into this fast emerging market
Meet with UAV product and service providers
Explore the potential of UAV systems as a viable option for your projects
Ideal for those in the research stage of understanding the benefits for all Infrastructure
Industry representatives (Water/Gas/Oil/Electrical Utilities, Transport – train, roads, this
technology can offer.
Seminar Topics
1. Overview on UAV Platforms and Payloads: choosing the right UAV for the right mission (SWaP)
vs. when not to use a UAV.
2. Data collection and Software tools : How to plan and undertake a survey, making raw data
usable, cost implications, hardware, safety / cyber (cyber, CUES, EO SAA ) and IT issues.
3. Simulation and certification of UAV.
4. Power Line Companies needs for Inspections: Vegetation Management, Component Conditions
and Maintenance Planning, prioritization and optimized results.
5. Inspection Service Provider’s POV: demonstrating capabilities for UAV based inspections,
comparison with traditional methods and helicopter based inspections.
6. Aviation Authority: vision of the future regulation allowing inspection flights in Israel.
7. Panel: Where is the UAV industry taking us?
Who Should Attend?
□ Utility Senior Management who make corporate level investment decisions and need to
defend them in front of the Board of Director or the Regulator.
□ Transmission project and maintenance managers, estimators, and contract managers
