A developer of uncrewed traffic management and operational technologies has demonstrated drone inspection capability with the New York Power Authority (NYPA). ANRA Technologies announced on August 14 that, using multiple drones to inspect power lines, it has “displayed the advanced features of its [Mission Management] software, including real-time monitoring, tracking of multiple simultaneous drone operations, and streaming video feeds—all coordinated by ANRA’s airspace management capability.”
ANRA said the technology used in its Mission Management software package promises safety and cost benefits through Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations and “sets a foundation for compliance with anticipated FAA rules.”
ANRA Technologies has been supporting NYPA since 2022. At an August 1 public demonstration in White Plains, New York, ANRA displayed drones performing linear inspections of NYPA’s power lines using Mission Management and property security monitoring “all coordinated and displayed from the Operations Center.”
