More than 150,000 bridges in Germany require regular inspection \u2014 according to DIN 1076, a simple inspection every three years and a main inspection every six years. Only 13% receive a rating of “very good” or “good,” while over 10% are rated “inadequate” or “insufficient.”<\/p>\n

Around 90 bridges are inspected daily \u2014 with enormous effort: bridge inspection vehicles, aerial platforms, scaffolding and road closures are standard. A leading engineering firm estimates one and a half days of work time to inspect a 200-square-meter structure. Five and a half hours alone are spent on equipment setup, walkthrough and documentation. Time that is increasingly scarce given rising inspection volumes and skilled labor shortages. Add to this considerable safety risks for inspection personnel.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Approach: Automated Aerial Inspection With AI-Based Damage Analysis<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n

 <\/p>\n

A nationwide industrial service provider relies on drone-based inspections: Uncrewed aircraft systems reach even hard-to-access areas like bridge undersides effortlessly \u2014 without heavy equipment or road closures. Equipped with high-resolution sensors, the drones capture even the smallest spalling and vegetation growth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

FlyNex covers the entire process \u2014 from planning through automated flight operations to AI-based analysis. The integrated vision AI automatically detects damage down to the millimeter level: cracks, rust, contamination and spalling are graphically displayed and documented. The platform meets the highest standards for data privacy and data security.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
