Developed by our engineers, DroScan, a drone solution with smart analytics capability, is the first drone solution authorised by the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore for use in General Visual Inspection (GVI) during maintenance work on Singapore-registered aircraft.

DroScan uses drones to fly autonomously along planned routes around the aircraft fuselage to capture high definition images, thereby allowing indirect GVI to be conducted through live video feed and images. The same images can be fed through algorithms that detect and classify defects to assist the review process, with an inspection report generated to maintain a digital database. The system provides a repeatable inspection process to ensure consistent quality and reliability while reducing inspection time and risks of working at height.

DroScan is incorporated in our MRO work on Singapore-registered aircraft, and it will be available in more facilities across our global network.
