3D utility mapping services

Dielmo3D has extensive experience in generating full 2D and 3D utility mapping and power lines design of overhead transmission and distribution.

Almost any network feature can be vectorized and designed in 3D using accurate LiDAR point clouds. From fast catenary drawing to highly detailed and complex 3D utility mapping design and network models containing insulators, guy wires, stapling pints, phases of the main conductor, etc.

3D power lines can also be imported into PLS-CADD to reduce costs when modelling lines in different weather case scenarios (temperature, wind, icing, etc.).

Product customization for each 3D utility mapping design project specifications.

High detailed 3D design of overhead transmission lines and custom power line maps.

2D and 3D planimetrics and soil cover for overhead transmission and distribution network.

Simplified semi-automated and cost-effective 3D power line design for encroachments.

CAD profiles and reports

Sometimes 2D/ 3D utility mapping and planimetrics are not the only end product that our client needs for utilities management. Dielmo3D can produce and export any 2D and 3D power line design in many formats and displays, to match each project requirement and simplify our client’s daily work.

Formats and outputs can be fully customized depending on each project needs and clients.

Study in real conditions. Possibility of simulation of different environmental conditions (PLS-CADD)

VEGETATION
MANAGEMENT REPORTS

After computing all the vegetation clearance analysis required by our clients ( voltages, distances, materials, span length, etc.); Dielmo 3D generates 100% customized and fully automated reports for vegetation encroachments, tree fall risk or different weather scenarios (PLS-CADD required).

Formats and outputs can be fully customized depending on each project needs and clients.

UTILIZATION OF LiDAR TO ASSESS CLEARANCES

Measuring 3D power line clearance distances for utilities maintenance

We combine accurate LiDAR data with our exclusive algorithms and AI solutions to measure automatically any power line clearance distance. We check compliances and detect potential risk areas. From the conductor to the ground, buildings, roads, etc.

+99% reliability guaranteed in safe distances from power lines detection and risk reports delivered.

Automatic measurement of 3D distances from overhead power lines to any LiDAR feature over your entire network.

Our exclusive software is 100% customizable, allowing to adapt each power line clearance distance to different safety specifications.

+99% accurate safe distances detection and analysis. From power lines to overhead wires, ground and other objects.

Analysis of the current state and possibility of simulation with different wind and temperature conditions.

Exhaustive quality controls to guarantee the accuracy of the results (+99%).

Clearance reports

Once the results from our power line clearance distance analysis are generated, Dielmo 3D creates custom reports containing key information, such as the minimum distance from the conductor to the ground, buildings, roads, etc.

Formats and outputs can be fully customized depending on each project needs and clients.

PLS-CADD modelling services

Measuring vegetation encroachments and clearances from simulations and 3D Models of the network at different weather conditions.

The PLS-CADD LiDAR software is one of the most widely used by electrical engineers to design and analyse power lines considering all the parameters that affect them, such as cable material, wind and temperature, among others.

In this way, we can use the LiDAR data as an input data that gives us the current situation and from there obtain a 3D simulation of the power line in the worst case scenario (at maximum wind and maximum operating temperature).

If you require 3D PLS-CADD modelling and simulations for safety distance analysis in different environmental conditions of wind and temperature from LiDAR data, we can help you. We have a great deal of experience and a qualified team.

Assignment of material type and environmental conditions at the time of data capture.
Analysis of safety distances (to the ground, between cables, objects) and dangerous vegetation depending on the material and in different wind or temperature conditions.

PLS-CADD reports
in different weather conditions

After obtaining the network modelled in 3D for different weather case scenarios it is possible to apply different safety distances and vegetation analysis to them and to obtain accurate reports for each situation.

Worst case scenarios on high wind and temperature, icing, different materials… all them can have their own analysis and report to help utilities to manage their network more efficiently.

Formats and outputs can be fully customized depending on each project needs and clients.

Benefits of working with Dielmo 3D

Confidence

Our systems have been tested and refined. We implement exhaustive quality controls at every step of production. This ensures 99.9% accuracy in power line inspection. Our production team is committed to working with our ISO 9001 quality standards.

Peace of mind

Our experience and production capacity in this type of project is your guarantee of compliance with deadlines.

Customization

Customization of the product to meet your specification. We are not limited by the constraints in of off-the-shelf software. Our R&D Department develops what our clients need.

Capacity

We are able to spin up additional servers on demand using parallel computing and our own software, if we need to meet very short deadlines. All in house.

Value

Our service is not the cheapest, but cheap service can be the most expensive if you are penalised for non-deliveries, unexpected errors, etc leading to the loss of the customer.

Flexibility

If you are an acquisition company and work seasonally, you do not need to maintain specialised staff all year round for processing. We are your contracted processing team.
