Scope
Delta Scan completed a comprehensive internal and external inspection of a Durban silo facility, documenting 35 silos and 16 inter-bins. The largest structure on site reached 60 metres in height. In total the team captured more than 17,500 square metres of external facade and an equivalent area internally.
Services
Three specialist teams worked in parallel: one for photogrammetry, one for thermal imaging, and a third operating the ELIOS 3 drone with SLAM LiDAR. External data collection was completed in two days. Internal operations required five days and were carefully coordinated to keep the facility running at normal throughput.
Outcome
Delta Scan delivered a digital twin and used a hybrid AI workflow to produce facade maps for defect identification. The team correlated external observations with internal findings inside the LiDAR point cloud, enabling precise defect location mapping across the 3D model and providing a clear remediation roadmap for the client's engineers.
