5th Infrastructure Maintenance Award Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Award Recipient "Investigation of Obstructive Trees from the Air Using Drones"
Benefits of Drone-Based Obstruction Tree Surveys Until now, the prediction of obstruction trees relied on the experience and intuition of skilled technicians, leading to tree felling. However, due to the lack of improved communication conditions, it has been difficult to select and fell trees appropriately. By conducting efficient surveys with drones and creating 3D models from the obtained photographic data, it is possible to identify obstruction trees on a one-by-one basis by overlaying this data with visualized microwave propagation paths. Furthermore, by simulating tree growth in 3D, it is possible to identify trees that will obstruct signals in the future on a one-by-one basis. As a result of drone-based obstruction tree surveys, identifying obstructive trees has eliminated the need for extensive felling, allowing for consideration of environmental impacts and achieving cost benefits of up to 50%.

"The Era of Utilizing Drones for Infrastructure Inspections and Maintenance" Many infrastructures, such as roads, bridges, and tunnels, which were constructed en masse during the period of rapid economic growth, are now over 50 years old, and inspections have not kept pace, leading to neglect. For example, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism mandated in 2014 that bridges and tunnels over 2 meters in height undergo regular inspections through close visual checks every five years, but issues due to personnel and budget shortages have arisen. As a result, the introduction of drones for some inspections has begun to gain attention, and we are now in an era where drone operations are commonplace. Towa Drone Service supports the digital transformation (DX) of customer sites by 3D modeling infrastructure inspections and survey data for public and power sectors.
