Verisk expands property drone inspection offering with new app

Data analytics provider Verisk's business Geomni has enhanced its drone service for properties with the launch of its new mobile app for ground imagery and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) inspections.

The app enables users to collect imagery and other data directly with their mobile devices or to conduct complete UAV inspections with compatible DJI drones.

Geomni said that the ground-based imagery offers unique views and angles, complementing imagery and data captured from aircraft and satellites. Images captured using the app are synced back to the Geomni cloud, enabling detailed property measurements and reports for roof structure, siding, windows, doors, and more.

"The idea behind the app is for inspectors in the field to be able to do their jobs without having to venture onto steep rooftops or climb to unsafe positions. They can now gather exterior imagery and measurements needed from the safety of the ground," said Jeffery Taylor, Geomni's president. "The app also gives them access to the power of Geomni property images and data in the palm of their hands-whenever and wherever they might need it."
