Using Technology to Maximize Data Collection and Increase System Resiliency

Thursday, May 23, 2024
3:00 PM – 4:00 PM CT
Location: Mobile Convention Center - Room 203B
New technologies and tools are helping utilities better understand the condition of their infrastructure. Data collection and imaging technology using LiDAR and image recognition can produce high-accuracy maps efficiently without putting workers at risk in challenging terrain or bad weather. The collected data can be combined with back office pole loading and engineering software to accurately provide invaluable pole plant models and vegetation management assessments. This session provides an overview of LIDAR and includes a case study on how one utility used Imaging technology to manage their infrastructure requirements.
