How Copture helped Vissi AS inspect 800 power line pylons in northern Norway - no climbing, no helicopter<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Kautokeino. Northern Norway. Winter climate, rugged mountainous terrain and sub-zero temperatures. Along this landscape run power lines that supply the region with electricity - and each point of construction must be assessed for a permit.<\/p>

Vissi AS needed to conduct a comprehensive inspection of power lines<\/strong> in one of Norway's more challenging areas - 800 masts in terrain with limited access. The solution came via Copture, in partnership with Archion<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Vissi AS<\/a> is a Norwegian electricity network operator that owns and operates critical infrastructure in northern Norway. For a planned inspection of the power line network in Kautokeino, they were faced with a practical challenge: 800 plant points scattered across terrain with limited road access and difficult winter conditions.<\/p>

A traditional inspection of power lines requires staff to go to each individual point of installation - in this case, a so-called top inspection of 800 masts. Helicopters were costly, noisy and difficult to justify environmentally. A solution was needed that could cover all 800 masts - quickly, safely and with minimal impact on the environment.<\/strong><\/p>

How to carry out a comprehensive inspection of power lines in challenging terrain - without climbing, without helicopters and without compromising data quality?<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The solution - airborne inspection of power lines instead of ground operations<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Copture was responsible for the execution of the assignment on behalf of Vissi AS, with Archion<\/a> as an analysis partner. Certified UAV operators carried out the inspection on site in Kautokeino with equipment qualified for northern Norwegian winter conditions.<\/p>

All 800 masts were documented with high-resolution aerial imagery - top structures, insulators, brackets and any anomalies were systematically covered without the need for field staff to go to each site. No climbing, no helicopter noise, minimal environmental impact.<\/strong><\/p>

The entire flow was handled by Copture: from operational planning, permit management with Norwegian aviation authorities and logistics on site, to image delivery and quality assurance of collected material.<\/p>

The collected inspection material was then delivered to Archives<\/a> AI platform, where technicians analyzed each facility point to identify damage, wear and tear and anomalies<\/strong> - and compiled a priority action plan for VISSI.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\t\n \t\t\"Copture's UAV inspection provided us with a comprehensive picture of all 800 plant points in Kautokeino. We got the data we needed to prioritize the right maintenance actions - without having to send staff out to each individual mast. Efficient, safe and with good data quality.\"\n <\/div>\n \t
