Computer vision for electricity-network inspections
Capgemini reported that EDP Redes España shortened network inspections from 1 year to 1 month
Problem
EDP Redes España needed faster electricity-network inspections as demand grew. Manual image reviews limited the speed and consistency of defect detection.
Approach
EDP and Capgemini built an inspection platform using LandingAI and AWS technologies. Computer-vision models examined helicopter imagery, with geolocation connecting findings to assets. The team expanded the system after initial tests.
Results
Takeaway
The reported improvement concerned the inspection cycle. Capgemini did not disclose a numerical defect-detection accuracy rate.
