In this video, youβll see how the Elios 3 drone performed a complete drone stope inspection from a single location in only 10 minutes, delivering 100% coverage with zero shadowing. Its ability to fly 15 meters away from the ridge also made the process much safer for the inspection team. Watch how precise #StopeMapping with LiDAR and high-resolution visuals allows engineers to calculate extracted volumes and understand geological structures for better planning. The video covers the exact flight strategy to produce accurate point clouds and detailed wall imagery. This is a clear example of how drones are replacing slower, riskier traditional methods with faster, safer, and more complete data collection in active mining environments.

![Inspecting Pipe Racks with Drones π
One of the main drone inspections that are conducted at refineries with the Elios 3 UT is pipe and pipe rack inspections. Andre and his team now use the Elios 3 once or twice a week to inspect the pipe racks at their refinery in Louisiana. #PipeInspection #PipeRackInspection #RefineryInspection
Pipe racks can be very congested, making it hard to access with standard outdoor drones or man lifts, so Andres is now using the Elios 3 UT to reach spots you wouldnt normally be able to see from the ground or with bigger drones from above. [The Elios 3] allows you to get into those hard-to-get-to spaces. A lot of the time its just a couple of feet between the tiers of a pipe rack, and we are able to get the Elios 3 in there to inspect the underside and the top of each tier of the pipe rack, says Andre.

Andre then goes on to say that pipe rack inspections with drones are a lot faster compared to using traditional means like scaffolding or rope access. Depending on the length of the pipe rack, it may take us 10 minutes for about 50 feet (15 metres), and we can safely carry out the inspection from the ground.

Revolutionize your pipe rack inspections with drones. Elios 3 is a UT inspection drone made for confined space inspections and NDT inspections in petrochemical plants. It can be used as an oil and gas inspection drone for tank inspections, pipe inspections, pressure vessel inspections, and more, or as an emergency response drone.
