Synchronising the needs to develop new markets, reducing operation costs and system reliability are the major challenges faced by the domestic as well as international utility sector. These utilities sectors are

Power
Power & Gas line corridors are often in areas that are not easily accessible. But LiDAR operating from an airborne platform helps in surveying, mapping and monitoring new and existing power and gas lines.

The technique of airborne altimetric LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) provides accurate topographic data at high speed. This technology offers several advantages over the conventional methods of topographic data collection.

Corridor Mapping, thus, helps in Setting up Distribution network, Alternate Routing in case of distribution failure, Fault Identification& Utilization Management.

Gas
Natural gas has huge demand nowadays that is why it is considered as a lucrative market in the energy sector. Albireo’s data acquisition technology along with appropriate models and spatial analysis method is used to define the suitability of different locations for the construction of gas plants , setting up of gas pipelines and maintenance of existing pipelines.

Our airborne LiDAR corridor mapping and imaging technology for pipeline mapping and pipeline safety application aims to improve the safety and security transmission of gas and liquid energy in pipeline system by assessing the potential benefits of airborne LiDAR technology.

Telecommunication Industry
Sophisticated spatial analysis is useful for determining optimum generation potential. Our solution is used to spatially analyse network congestion, consider growth opportunities for energy sources, determine site feasibility, and create energy resource market scenarios.

Corridor Mapping using LiDAR technology also plays a crucial role in Telecommunication Industry. It assists in: Inventory management & equipment placement, Providing network data, Fault location & service maintenance, maintenance of network assets, Network analysis and Signal Tower site identification

Banking
Albireo works to create map data for banking sector to identify the location of ATM centers, location of customers, classification of defaulters, market analysis & ATM cash flow management.

Corridor Mapping plays a crucial role in Banking Sector. This is among the most interesting applications of LiDAR data. A helicopter bound LiDAR sensor is generally used for mapping of corridor by flying at lower altitude for collecting accurate and dense data of corridors. In case of banking, corridor includes the directions and paths of all ATM’s & Banks.

This can help in preparation of Zonal & Road network map of the city for locating ATM centres & customers.
