HOW WE WORK

Before commencing a dive extensive Mission planning is carried out to ensure all risks to property, personal safety and desired outcomes are covered. Also approvals from marina management or government departments prior to diving may be required.

Depending on the work required dive missions may need to be planned weeks in advance to allow time for approvals from authorities or where specific tides are required.

Quite often a dive will include a Lead ROV Pilot plus a second Pilot who will work as the Tether attendant.

At the end of each dive mission, the EdgeROV team will provide clients with detailed reports via Notilo Cloud, our video data management and reporting platform. These reports contain annotations of points of interest in a combination of video and PD formats. No other platform available in market today delivers such a detailed report.

We can even combine Aerial drone footage with the Underwater footage where both are needed. For example, there may be a need to provide external video of a water tank as well as in water video from within the tank. Both videos will be delivered to the client via Notilo Cloud
