As an industry-standard, building surfaces must be free from solar radiation for a minimum of 2 hours prior to the start of a thermographic survey – longer if the building consists of a heavyweight fabric. This is in order to allow for the effect of external heat gain in the wall to dissipate. For this reason, surveys can be expected to start around midnight during summer and early evening during winter.
The APS (“Aerial Payload Specialist”) Infrared Certificate has been designed to provide highly professional theoretical and practical infrared drone training for users intending to view or capture aerial thermal images.
Conforming to ISO 18436 standards, this comprehensive aerial thermography course combines the principles of infrared thermography with aerial work-flow considerations.
The Aerial Thermography Category 1 course has been designed to provide an introduction to the many aspects to be considered when buying, assembling and operating thermal imaging equipment for commercial aerial surveys. In addition to this, the course delivers fundamental skills and knowledge for general thermography, making it ideal for those looking to gain quick experience and competency to a high industry-standard.
