UAS ADVISORY PROGRAM
Benefit from
our expertise
Launching or scaling-up a UAS program can be a challenge for any organization, but our advisory service, AVIATE, is the product of over a decade of experience, completing over 500,000 asset inspections, and is designed to help you understand each of the elements that you need to consider.
We work with you to understand your requirements and then map them to our proven approach so that you can easily and cost-effectively get your program off the ground in as little as two weeks.
Shot sheet
We create a shot sheet to give your inspection program structure and precision. It defines exactly what to capture — angles, distances, zoom levels, and perspectives — so data is collected in a uniform way across every mission. Acting as a shot checklist, it ensures no component is overlooked, whether it’s an insulator, cross-arm, or turbine blade. This consistency makes aerial inspections directly comparable across identical assets and over time, building a reliable foundation for tracking condition and supporting confident engineering decisions.

Inspection standards alignment
Cyberhawk makes drone-collected aerial data actionable, consistent, and slots seamlessly into your internal processes. We align every finding with your established defect library so drone-captured issues carry the same classification as field inspectors would give them. We apply clear grading scales so teams can prioritize defects using objective, repeatable criteria. Each image and report ties directly to your asset hierarchy, linking evidence to the right component in the right location. We build inspection workflows into your maintenance system so data flows naturally into repair orders.

Equipment recommendation
We help you cut through the noise of a crowded drone market to choose hardware that truly fits your needs. We evaluate the latest platforms and payloads — from high-resolution cameras and thermal sensors to LiDAR and gas emission detection — and match them to your inspection goals and environments. Our recommendations focus on technical fit and scalability, ensuring your chosen systems can handle enterprise-level inspection programs across entire asset portfolios. The result: no guesswork, just the right investment in technology that delivers lasting value.

Maintenance program
Owning drones is one thing — running a reliable, enterprise-grade aerial inspection program is another. Cyberhawk’s maintenance framework keeps your fleet mission-ready through structured checks, proactive servicing, and tailored guidance for your chosen hardware. The program is built to prevent equipment failures, reduce downtime, and ensure every payload performs to spec in the field. With clear recommendations and checklists, you can track, service, and optimize your systems with confidence, keeping inspections consistent and operations uninterrupted.

UAS inspection of assets
We start by inspecting a fixed number of your assets—not as a demo, but as the foundation of your program. This proof of concept validates your shot sheet in the field, confirming every angle and image delivers the coverage your engineers need. The results create a benchmark and a blueprint for all future inspections, giving you consistency, repeatability, and confidence to scale across your entire network.

iHawk trial
iHawk, Cyberhawk’s aerial data management platform, turns inspection data into a single source of truth for your assets. In your trial, we preload images and reports from your own towers, poles and lines — so you’re working with real data, not a demo. Explore map views, 3D models, and 360° imagery to see condition at a glance. Test how workflows, collaboration tools, and AI defect recognition slot into your operations and speed up maintenance decisions.
