Airborne Thermal & Colour Imaging

Delta Helicopters offers a value-added service by combining our aircraft, flight-crew and some specialized imaging equipment.

With this equipment we are able to carry out airborne visual and infra-red patrols, scanning and recording in IR, colour video, or both.

We can detect gas or oil leaks from pipelines, even through snow cover.

We can scan burn sites for residual heat, preventing wildfires and protecting valuable log decks.

We can patrol fire-line for the presence of hot spots and active areas, even through dense smoke.
