Vegetation encroachment analysis in 3D using deep learning

When it comes to electrical power distribution over transmission or distribution wires, a lack of vegetation management around the powerlines can lead to high maintenance costs. Vegetation management is crucial, as uncontrolled vegetation encroachments can lead to forest fires, power outages during a storm, and so on. Identifying these maintenance spots that will need trimming or vegetation management takes time. Often, you will need to conduct a manual survey, or one partially assisted by remote sensing data. Companies must spend time, money, and resources on vegetation encroachment management.
