Ben Bishop

Technical Director, Flythru

Capturing accurate data under bridge decks, in confined spaces and below the waterline is difficult where GPS signals are weak or absent. Ben Bishop shows how drone and survey technology can build a reliable digital twin of the whole structure.

  • Surveying techniques that work without GPS
  • Combining above-water and underwater data in one model
  • How accurate digital twins support inspection and maintenance
