Industries
Built for the Industries That Can't Afford Downtime.
Tier 1 serves the infrastructure sectors where data accuracy isn't a preference it's a safety and compliance requirement. We understand your regulatory environment, your asset types, and what your engineers actually need from aerial data.
Electric Utilities
Transmission, distribution, and substation inspection for IOUs, co-ops, and municipal utilities.
Electric utilities operate some of the most geographically dispersed and safety-critical infrastructure in the country. Tier 1 can support investor-owned utilities, rural electric cooperatives, and municipal power authorities with LiDAR corridor surveys, thermal inspection of energized equipment, general inspection high resolution images, and post-storm damage assessment — all delivered within 24 hours of flight completion.
Key Challenges We Solve
Telecom Infrastructure
Tower inspection and documentation for carriers, tower companies, and neutral hosts.
The telecom industry is in the middle of a massive 5G densification buildout and every new installation, modification, and lease renewal requires accurate structural documentation. Tier 1 replaces costly and time-consuming tower climbs with a systematic drone inspection workflow that produces a complete high resolution photographic and structural record of every tower element. we also can create a Lidar map of surrounding terrain on your new or existing asset.
Key Challenges We Solve
Oil, Gas & Pipeline
Pipeline corridor surveys and facility inspection for midstream and upstream operators.
Pipeline operators face a persistent challenge: maintaining accurate, current data on hundreds or thousands of miles of right-of-way. Tier 1 provides LiDAR corridor surveys for pipeline integrity programs, encroachment detection, and facility inspection — giving your integrity management team the spatial data they need to make confident decisions.
Key Challenges We Solve
Commercial Roofing
Thermal and visual roof surveys for property managers, facility teams, and roofing contractors.
Commercial roof failures are expensive and most go undetected until water is already inside the building. Tier 1 provides radiometric thermal and 4K visual aerial documentations of flat and low-slope roofing systems, identifying membrane failures, moisture intrusion, ponding water, and structural defects in a single mobilization. Our geo-referenced condition reports give facility teams and roofing contractors a defensible, prioritized repair plan without putting anyone on the roof.
