Data & Analytics

From Raw Sensor Data to Predictive Intelligence

Our drones collect. Our platform processes. Our AI predicts. Every flight generates a structured data pipeline that transforms multi-sensor readings into decisions that prevent failures and extend asset life.

The Data Pipeline

Three Tiers of Intelligence

Every autonomous mission flows through a three-stage pipeline — from raw collection to processed analysis to predictive action.

Tier 1
📷

Scanning & Collection

Multi-sensor raw data captured by autonomous drone flights. Surface and subsurface, geotagged to centimeter accuracy.

Tier 2
🌍

Geophysical Processing

Raw data transformed into geological models, orthomosaics, 3D reconstructions, and subsurface maps by domain experts.

Tier 3
🧠

AI Analytics & Prediction

Machine learning detects anomalies, classifies defects, predicts failures weeks in advance, and generates automated reports.

────────
Tier 1

Multi-Sensor Scanning & Collection

Every autonomous mission captures structured data across 12+ sensor types. Two data categories — surface and subsurface — collected simultaneously, all RTK-geotagged to centimeter accuracy.

Tier 2

Geophysical Processing & Modeling

Raw sensor data is processed by our team of 4 geophysics PhDs into calibrated, interpretable outputs. From magnetic anomaly maps to 3D subsurface models, this tier turns signal into structure.

🧲 Magnetic Anomaly Analysis

Pipeline integrity diagnostics, corrosion mapping, joint/weld identification. Ferrosonde and proton magnetometer data processed into defect classifications.

📐 3D Subsurface Modeling

Multi-sensor inversion combining GPR, EM, and magnetometry into volumetric geological models. Mineral deposit identification and underground infrastructure mapping.

🗺 Surface Reconstruction

LiDAR point clouds and photogrammetry processed into orthomosaics, DEMs, and 3D terrain reconstructions via RAVAM Mapper.

🌡 Thermal & Spectral Analysis

Thermal gradient mapping for leak detection, solar panel hotspot identification, and multispectral vegetation health indices.

Tier 3

AI Analytics & Predictive Intelligence

The RAVAM AI engine fuses multi-sensor data streams, detects anomalies in real-time, and models degradation trends to predict failures weeks before they occur.

⚠ Anomaly Detection

Real-time identification of defects, hot spots, leaks, structural deformations, and vegetation encroachment. Multi-sensor cross-referencing eliminates false positives.

📈 Predictive Maintenance

Historical trend analysis models degradation timelines. Forecasts when components will fail and recommends intervention windows — weeks in advance.

🔄 Change-Over-Time Analysis

Baseline comparison across repeated survey flights. Detects progression of corrosion, subsidence, vegetation growth, and thermal drift.

📋 Automated Reporting

AI-generated inspection reports with annotated imagery, severity classifications, GPS coordinates, and recommended actions. PDF, dashboard, or API.

Proven in the Field

Pipeline Integrity — From Scan to Decision

Our most advanced data pipeline in action: UAV-based aeromagnetic diagnostics for underground pipeline corrosion detection.

1️⃣ Scan

Heavy-lift UAV with ferrosonde three-component magnetometer flies low-altitude survey lines along the pipeline corridor.

2️⃣ Process

Magnetic field data (X, Y, Z, F components) processed to identify pipe joints, welds, and anomalous zones at up to 7,000 nT resolution.

3️⃣ Analyze

AI compares before/after magnetic signatures to detect corrosion, metal loss, and crack formation. Sensitivity confirmed to >1,000 nT shifts.

4️⃣ Deliver

Geo-referenced defect map with severity classification, inspection priorities, and 6-month re-survey schedule. GIS layers + PDF report.

Common Questions

Data & Analytics FAQ

Each mission captures 2–4 sensor types. Surface: RGB, thermal, LiDAR, multispectral. Subsurface: magnetometry, GPR, electromagnetic. All RTK-geotagged to centimeter accuracy, stored onboard (512 GB) and uploaded via the nest station.
95%+ accuracy through multi-sensor fusion. A thermal anomaly confirmed by a magnetic signature and visual defect is far more reliable than any single sensor. False positive rates drop with each additional data layer.
Yes. Standard GIS formats: Shapefile, GeoJSON, KML, GeoTIFF. ArcGIS and QGIS compatible. For SCADA/EAM/ERP, we provide REST API access and custom integration.
Weeks to months ahead, depending on asset type and degradation rate. For pipelines, magnetic signature progression across 6-month survey cycles builds robust degradation curves for forecasting.
