About Vantage UAV

Vantage UAV is a market-leading drone services and solutions provider. Our mission is to enable our customers to effectively and consistently manage and maintain their assets in a safer, smarter and cost-effective way. We have extensive experience and expertise in supplying drone services and solutions to the built environment, with a particular focus on the social housing sector and are the preferred supplier of drone services to the National Housing Federation (NHF).

Our capabilities include:

Drone as a Service (DaaS)

Vantage UAV performs drone-based inspection, surveying, mapping and security services on your behalf. We use an expansive range of drones, alongside a myriad of sensor types covering optical, high-resolution video, thermal and LiDAR, tailored to client output requirements.

The data we capture can be delivered in a variety of ways, including 2D & 3D data portals, coupled with a suite of data deliverable options; raw data only, data integration into existing client systems and a range of hosted data portals for client access, viewing and interaction with the end-output. We can produce reports highlighting and categorising defects providing critical data for the BIM process.

Distribution

We enable our clients to build their own ‘in-house’ drone solutions through the provision of hardware & software. This includes, consultancy, training and the implementation of systems, in addition to ongoing support and maintenance.

Vantage UAV and Social Housing

Within the social housing sector, we have the ability to provide a variety of services aiding the inspection and safety of buildings, assisting responsive repairs and supporting development and regeneration projects. Carrying out drone-based inspections provides greater insight into the condition of assets at a vastly reduced cost in comparison to traditional access methods.

Building Safety

The unparalleled capability of drones to capture data in multi-occupancy buildings of varying heights, is fully proven. Our drone services can provide detailed imagery highlighting potential issues with the external fabric of a building. The comprehensive data collected can also be processed to create a full 3D digital twin of the building.

.

Responsive Repairs

A large proportion of issues raised in this area revolve around roof and upper surface conditions, which can be notoriously difficult to detect. Vantage UAV can perform a whole drone roof inspection in a fraction of the time and cost of traditional methods. The detailed imagery output allows full assessments to be made before any remedial work is undertaken.

.

Development & Regeneration

Drones can quickly and effectively survey large areas of land, collecting mm accurate data which can aid different sized development and regeneration projects. Drones can also be used to monitor project progress and can be deployed to assist site security functions.

.

Legal Disrepair

As the data collected by drones is both date and time stamped it can be used in supporting or contesting legal disrepair claims.

Social Value

Tenant inclusion is central to our way of working. Drone services actively demonstrate innovative and advanced property management and can provide easy-to-use visual data which can be shared with all relevant stakeholders.

Net Zero

With a growing awareness of the need to reduce Scope 3 emissions, our services are aligned with net zero strategies. We can reduce third-party transportation emissions using our localised pilot network, alongside a reduction in construction and operational emissions.
