Everything is carried out from the ground, with georeferenced data that can be compared over time.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>Can railway inspection with drones take place in BVLOS?<\/summary><p>The system is designed to operate in BVLOS in compliance with ENAC (Italy). The operations centre manages dynamic path planning, configurable geofences and no-fly zones, SORA procedures or standard scenarios, audit log and full traceability. The Matrice 4TD has omnidirectional vision and proximity LiDAR, which also detects thin obstacles such as the catenary, with sensing active even in low-light conditions.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>How does it integrate with existing maintenance and surveillance systems?<\/summary><p>The operations centre exposes APIs to CMMS, GIS and BIM and provides integrations with UTM, VMS, CCTV and SAP PM via REST, WebRTC and MQTT. AI detections, validated by a certified operator, become automatic work orders with georeferenced attachments. Deployment can be on-prem or air-gapped.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>What is the difference between in-house management and DaaS?<\/summary><p>With in-house management the infrastructure manager builds and runs the fleet and the operations centre, trains and certifies operators and bears technology updates and operational risk: high initial CAPEX and 8\u201312 months to reach steady state. With DroneBase DaaS the service is turnkey, on an OPEX fee, with operators already ENAC-certified (Italy), contractual SLAs and KPIs and 30\u201360 days for operational pilot lots. Data ownership remains with the client: DroneBase is the data processor.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>How long does the pilot last and how do you get to roll-out?<\/summary><p>The roadmap has four phases: line pilot in 1\u20132 months (1 pilot line section, 2\u20133 Docks with Matrice, trial operations centre, KPI definition), validation in 2\u20134 months, extension to a strategic corridor in 4\u20138 months and national roll-out in 8\u201312 months. Every step has measurable KPIs.<\/p><\/details>\n      <details><summary>What does the AI detect and where is the data processed?<\/summary><p>The AI automatically classifies defects, components and obstacles and produces georeferenced output ready for ticketing. Inference takes place on board the drone, with a module of about 120 g and up to 100 TOPS, or at the dock: custom models are installed on-prem and are not exposed to the cloud. A certified operator confirms, downgrades or requests further investigation before the work order.<\/p><\/details>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<!-- ================= FORM ================= -->\n\n\n  <nav class=\"db-chrome db-rel\" aria-label=\"Related solutions\">\n    <div class=\"db-rel-in\">\n      <span class=\"db-rel-label\">Related solutions<\/span>\n      <ul>\n        <li><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dronebase.it\/en\/drone-operations-center-bvlos-luc\/\">BVLOS drone operations centre<\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dronebase.it\/en\/ai-drones-security-monitoring\/\">AI drones for security and monitoring<\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dronebase.it\/en\/dji-dock-3\/\">DJI Dock 3<\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dronebase.it\/en\/air-and-gas-sensors\/\">Air and gas sensors for drones<\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a class=\"db-rel-all\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.dronebase.it\/en\/drone-applications\/\">All applications &rarr;<\/a><\/li>\n      <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/nav>\n\n  <!-- ===== WHY DRONEBASE (standard block, identical on all landing pages) ===== -->\n  <section class=\"db-chrome db-why\" id=\"perche-dronebase-std\" aria-label=\"Why DroneBase\">\n    <div class=\"db-why-in\">\n      <div>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"db-why-logo\" src=\"https:\/\/shop.dronebase.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Logo-Web-DB-White-scaled.png\" alt=\"DroneBase\" loading=\"lazy\">\n        <span class=\"db-why-label\">Why DroneBase<\/span>\n        <h2>Since 2012, Europe&rsquo;s reference point <span>for professional UAV technology<\/span><\/h2>\n        <p><strong>DJI Super Gold Dealer, the only one in Europe.<\/strong> Headquarters, warehouse, service centre and demo area in Rimini, Italy: you see the system working before you buy it, and this is where it comes back for maintenance and updates.<\/p>\n        <div class=\"db-why-badges\"><span>DJI Super Gold Dealer<\/span><span>ISO 9001:2015<\/span><span>Since 2012<\/span><span>MEPA<\/span><span>Rimini \u00b7 Italy<\/span><\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <ul>\n        <li><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><polyline points=\"20 6 9 17 4 12\"\/><\/svg><span><strong>ISO 9001 certified<\/strong> \u2014 certified quality in sales, training and service<\/span><\/li>\n        <li><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><polyline points=\"20 6 9 17 4 12\"\/><\/svg><span><strong>Training with certified instructors<\/strong> \u2014 DroneBase Academy, pilot certificates and STS scenarios<\/span><\/li>\n        <li><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><polyline points=\"20 6 9 17 4 12\"\/><\/svg><span><strong>Technical and regulatory consulting<\/strong> on complex scenarios, ENAC and EASA<\/span><\/li>\n        <li><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><polyline points=\"20 6 9 17 4 12\"\/><\/svg><span><strong>R&amp;D<\/strong> for complex projects and tailor-made integrations<\/span><\/li>\n        <li><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"><polyline points=\"20 6 9 17 4 12\"\/><\/svg><span><strong>Full support<\/strong>, before and after the sale, with a dedicated technical contact<\/span><\/li>\n      <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/section>\n\n  <!-- ===== FINAL FORM (standard block, identical on all landing pages) ===== -->\n  <section class=\"db-chrome db-form\" id=\"contatti\" aria-label=\"Contact\">\n    <div class=\"db-form-in\">\n      <span class=\"db-form-label\">Talk to an expert<\/span>\n      <h2>Let's build the first pilot lot together<\/h2>\n      <p>Joint technical workshop, selection of the line section, Dock sizing, definition of KPIs and SLAs.
