Startup Idea: Drone-based Telecommunications Tower Monitoring Software
I am a telecommunications engineer. I'm tasked with monitoring and taking inventory of status and conditions of towers around the world. Normally I have to visit each location and climb each tower to check on each connection. After I do that I have to manually input the information. We are starting to use drone technology so I can avoid each structure. Now I do the checking with video images, but I still have to input al data manually. I would pay good money for a software that can identify the different connections and detect troublesom situations automatically. This way I could do my work faster and more efficiently so that I can do more visits in a day or even better. Have the viedos from other towers uploaded to my server. This would also bring costs down because its very different paying a drone operator than a professional technician that has to climb each tower.
