Niricson sells damage-assessment software, using drones to spot problems with major infrastructure such as dams and bridges.
Victoria-based Niricson, which uses its damage-assessment software and drone-based data collection system to assess and inspect large infrastructure projects, is preparing to expand its reach after raising $10 million.
Niricson’s early focus was on analyzing dams. It has since expanded its scope to include bridges, power plants and tunnels. The system provides visual, thermal and acoustic analysis of concrete infrastructure. Because it requires fewer people than conventional assessment work, it can be done faster and at a fraction of the cost.
