Italian railways: drones arrive at the construction sites of the new HS/AC Naples-Bari railway line

The drones arrive at the construction sites of the new AV / AC Naples-Bari railway line to monitor their activity and inspect the progress of the works. The project by the FS Group companies Italferr and FSTechnology, based on Microsoft and Seikey technology, marks a big step in the digital supervision of the F construction processesItalian errors allowing the optimization of costs and times and guaranteeing a timely intervention activity in case of anomalies or critical issues in the monitored construction sites.

The technologies made available by the companies have made it possible to record, process and analyze the data on the state of the works that emerged from the drone tracking used in many construction sites in Italy, creating 3D models made available to engineers for the management of construction activities and quality control of the built work.

“We currently operate on 200 construction sites in Italy, but there will be 400 in about 3 years,” said Federica Santini, Italferr's Director of Strategies, Innovation and Systems.

Instead, Luigi Ferraris, managing director of FS, recalled in a recent interview with Previndai Media Player when speaking of the Group's new business plan that "technological and digital innovation is essential for the planning, management and maintenance of infrastructures, both from the environmentally and economically".
