Asset Encroachment

Power lines are often a difficult, time consuming, and hazardous asset to inventory manually. With Mandli’s LiDAR data collection system, power lines and surrounding vegetation can be automatically catalogued. The data can be used to display the number of power lines present, the physical proximity between the individual lines, and the proximity from the power lines to the road. A frequent cause of power outages is vegetation encroachment on suspended power lines. Vegetation density and distance can also be measured and outputted in a convenient format.

• Inventory power lines quickly and easily
• Identify problem areas for vegetation encroachment
• Create customized databases from the information
