Remote Inspection of Wooden Utility Poles (RIWUP)

Remote Inspection of Wooden Utility Poles (RIWUP)

This competency building initiative is devoted to establishing a benchmark concept and methodologies for airborne remote sensing of subsurface defects in large and complex infrastructures, specifically, of wooden utility poles within the electricity transmission and distribution network. The ambition is to lay the foundation to enable that all poles are in service to their true remaining useful lifetime and preventing unpredicted failures.
