Visual Intelligence has partnered with Bentley Systems, Incorporated (Nasdaq: BSY), the infrastructure engineering software company, to introduce OpenTower® iQ – a purpose-built analytics solution to help tower owners, operators and engineers realize the true value of digital-twins to automates downstream workflows, including inspection and engineering analysis.

Visual Intelligence uses patented dual-sensor drone technology and proprietary enterprise software, to generate billions of datapoints and map exponentially more measurable tower surface area than any alternative aerial or ground-based method. Combining our unique sensor offering with Bentley’s OpenTower iQ-software provides the first industry solution capable of digitizing physical tower infrastructure with millimeter accuracy. OpenTower iQ uses artificial intelligence to analyze engineering-grade as-built 3D models and automate inspection and engineering analysis.

Increased tower model fidelity facilitates new capabilities including structural and mount analysis, as-designed versus as-built comparisons, vendor equipment recognition, and automated report generation.
