Abstract

The utilization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with aerial photography and photogrammetry allows for the inspection of large structures, including TV towers. This approach enables remote measurement of defect sizes and locations, as well as identifying areas requiring further investigation by technical experts. It aids in planning repair and restoration procedures, preserving the durability and ensuring the safety of large-scale structures. The obtained data is valuable for enhancing the efficiency and safety of engineering structure inspections.
