What are the benefits of drone-enabled inspections compared to traditional inspection methods?

Drone-enabled inspections are safer, more efficient, more cost-effective, and provide a complete and detailed overview of a facility, both with visual and thermal imaging.

Traditional inspection methods are time consuming, have safety concerns, are not cost-effective, lack flexibility to provide a thorough inspection, and lack detailed data on the condition of a facility.

How does it work?

EagleHawk has an expert team of FAA certified drone pilots and analysts who have created an innovative method for inspecting large-scale facility assets using state-of-the-art drones equipped with cutting-edge sensors and high-definition cameras that make it easier, safer, faster, more efficient, and more cost-effective to inspect facility assets.

EagleHawk will work closely with your facility team to compile all the necessary background and logistical information to plan the data collection flights. EagleHawk will take the necessary steps to ensure that the proper FAA flight clearances are obtained in advance and, if applicable, will coordinate with your onsite team and local flight control authorities throughout the data collection process.

On the day of the data collection flights, EagleHawk’s team will use professional drones and sensor equipment to capture high-resolution data on each of the assets under inspection. Once all the necessary data has been collected, our core team of analysts will evaluate the data and compile the findings in a comprehensive final report that is easy to read and navigate with an interactive dashboard.

What is the company history?

EagleHawk was founded in 2016 in Buffalo, NY by Patrick Walsh and Will Schulmeister.

Patrick graduated from the Rochester Institute of Technology and holds a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering as well as an MBA from Rollins College. Patrick spent most of his career with Lockheed Martin in Orlando, FL working with advanced thermal imaging systems for fighter aircraft and helicopters before relocating back to Upstate New York.  

Will graduated from the University at Buffalo with a Master’s Degree in Geographic Data Science and also holds degrees in Economic Crime Investigation, Geography and Social Science. Will previously held professional roles in private security and investigations, as well the property insurance and inspections services industries.

Both natives of Buffalo, Patrick and Will were connected thanks to their entrepreneurial spirits and mutual passion for drones and technology. Both knew that drones were rapidly becoming an emerging industry and wanted to combine their backgrounds and skill sets to create a niche within the space. That’s when EagleHawk was born.
