Moisture surveys that end in
a map, not a maybe
A flat-roof moisture survey can produce a map of areas for verification coring. Atlas turns an evening thermal flight into measured, georeferenced documentation for the inspector's interpretation and follow-up.
The IR moisture survey toolkit
Everything between landing the drone and marking the deck for cores.
Radiometric file support
Atlas reads embedded temperature data from supported DJI R-JPEG and FLIR radiometric files — not just the colorized preview — and keeps measurement parameters available for review.
Radiometric temperature analysis
Inspect per-pixel temperatures, adjust emissivity and reflected temperature, and place spot and area measurements that update live as you tune parameters and interpret capture conditions.
Annotation & markup
Drop pins with live temperature readouts, mark regions, add delta-T callouts, and attach field notes so every finding carries its evidence.
Georeferenced findings
Findings land on maps and an interactive 3D globe view, so repair crews know exactly where to go without re-flying the site.
3D models & orthophotos
Turn drone photos or video into interactive 3D models, orthophotos, and downloadable deliverables processed on cloud GPUs — no desktop photogrammetry rig required.
Branded PDF reports
Generate client-ready reports with annotated imagery, findings tables, and severity grading — under your logo and brand, ready to send the same day.
Timing and temperature are your evidence
A moisture survey lives or dies on capture conditions and measured contrast. Atlas preserves timestamps, site weather, and temperature differentials for each suspect area, giving the inspector a documented basis for interpretation and follow-up verification.
From thermal signature to core location
Mark regions of interest on thermal imagery, and Atlas maps them onto the roof plan through georeferenced capture data and orthophoto reconstruction. Verification cores and moisture-meter checks can be planned from the documented areas, with results recorded in the same project.
Frequently asked questions
When should a flat-roof IR moisture survey be flown?
Typically in the hours after sunset following a sunny day, when roof areas may cool at different rates. Atlas records timing and conditions with each flight so an inspector can assess whether capture conditions support the intended interpretation.
Does Atlas replace core sampling?
No — thermal surveys locate suspect areas; cores verify them. Atlas makes the survey side rigorous and mapped so your verification effort is spent in the right places.
What roof types suit IR moisture surveys?
Low-slope membrane and built-up roofs with absorbent insulation are ideal. Ballasted and highly reflective assemblies are harder targets — judgment calls Atlas supports with measured data rather than making for you.
