Why AerTwin

Too heavy to send. Too sensitive to copy. Only useful if the numbers hold.

A capture of a bridge or a dam runs to hundreds of gigabytes. AerTwin keeps it on the server and sends a 3D interactive video of it instead.

01

No workstation to buy or maintain

The model renders on a cloud GPU while an inspector is in it, and is released when they leave. A current browser is all your team needs.

02

The model stays where it is

The browser receives video, screen coordinates and record numbers. No mesh or point cloud is ever transmitted.

03

Numbers you can defend

Measurements are computed on the server, against the model itself. The same figure appears on screen, in the PDF and in the CSV.

04

One record for the whole team

Several people can be in the same structure at once. A saved finding syncs across, a bell says what changed, and the activity panel holds 30 days — click an entry to jump straight to that finding.

Structures

One platform, whatever you inspect.

The tools do not change with the structure. Findings are filed under its own parts, so the report reads the way your inspection does.

Bridges

Decks, piers, abutments and bearings

Move along the deck and down each pier, and file findings under Deck, Pier 2 or Bearings — those groups become the sections of the report.

Road and motorway authorities, rail infrastructure owners, city bridge owners, and the consultancies that inspect for them.
Dams

Faces, spillways and crests

Work across the whole face at once, and file findings under Upstream face, Spillway or Crest — the same way a bridge is filed by its parts.

Dam and hydropower owners and operators, and the engineers who inspect for them.
How it works

Your structure renders on a cloud server. Your browser receives a live picture.

Three steps, and only the last one reaches your computer.

01 · CAPTURE

A drone survey becomes a 3D model

Photographs and LiDAR are captured together and reconstructed to scale into one textured 3D model.

02 · RENDER

A dedicated GPU draws your view

A cloud GPU loads the model and renders exactly the view the inspector is looking at, at the size of their screen.

03 · STREAM

Video out, clicks back

The view arrives as encrypted video. A measurement is computed on the server and returned as numbers.

Cloud GPU server

Stays on the server

  • The 3D model — mesh and textures
  • A dedicated NVIDIA GPU for each session
  • The engine that computes every measurement
Live video of your viewencrypted
Your clicks, drags and keys
Measurements and finding records
Your browser · Chrome or Edge

Reaches your screen

  • A video of the view you asked for
  • Overlay positions, figures and record numbers
  • A photograph or a report — only when you open or export one
One dashboardEvery structure your account can open, each with its findings counted.
About two minutes to startFor a scheduled inspection, a GPU can be held ready so the model opens in seconds.
Nothing left runningA GPU is released automatically after 15 minutes without a session.
Capabilities

Everything the inspection needs, on one shared model.

Navigate

Move around the whole structure in 3D

Orbit, pan and zoom with CAD-style controls, or double-click any point to fly to it. Every finding keeps the viewpoint it was recorded from, so anyone can return to what the inspector saw.

  • Section plane cuts the model open
  • Compass where the capture declares a map grid
  • Show every finding, only your filters, or none
Measure

Length, area, volume and depth, on the model itself

Distance, area, volume, depth profile and 3D defect tools trace against the model on the server — not against a picture of it.

  • Every volume carries one of four grades: Good, Fair, Indicative or Not measurable
  • Plan length, slope, perimeter and elevation difference
  • 3D defect: concrete missing from a spall
AI-assisted review

Review AI-proposed defects, one decision at a time

Our computer vision sweeps every survey photograph before your team opens the model. Each proposal is placed on the 3D model, measured, and linked to the photographs it came from.

  • An inspector accepts, edits or dismisses each one
  • Nothing reaches a report until a named inspector accepts it
  • Severity is always set by a person
Findings & reports

Turn findings into a report

Each finding carries its component, severity, status, recommended action and target date. File them under the parts they belong to — Deck, Pier 2, Spillway — and those groups become the sections of the PDF.

  • One PDF page per finding, from its saved view
  • CSV with each outline's geometry
  • Finding numbers are issued once and never reused
Instruments & monitoring

Your monitoring network, placed on the model

Pin each piezometer, crackmeter, water-level gauge or accelerograph where it actually sits on the structure. Every type has its own symbol, so an engineer can read a structure they have never visited, and one click on the list flies to any instrument.

  • Twelve instrument types, from piezometers to survey points
  • Show one type at a time across the whole structure
  • Already publishing readings over the web? Connecting them to these instruments is integration work we scope with you
Work together

One model, one record, the whole team

Three account types — Administrator, Inspection Engineer and Viewer — so a critical finding raised by one engineer is reviewed by another, and the record shows who reviewed what.

  • Each finding records who created it and who accepted it
  • A sign-off applies to one version
  • Undo puts content back — never a sign-off
The Planner

A finding becomes work somebody is accountable for.

AerTwin shows the structure. The Planner is the part beside it that turns what you found into a work order, follows it to site, and keeps the evidence attached to the place it belongs to — the photographs your team took, and the model they were taken against.

What is waiting, and on whom

Every open action, who owns it, what is past due and what is blocked — for the whole team on one screen. Nothing sits in one person's inbox.

A work order, place by place

One package, every place it touches, and a plain answer to “can this start?”. A place that is blocked says why, and holds up only itself.

Recorded where the work happens

The crew ticks each step on a phone, with the permit and the photographs attached. It works with no signal and sends when there is one.

Every photograph lands in the right place

Phone, camera or your own drone. The time and the place come in with the picture, so photographs group themselves and the app suggests where they belong. A person decides.

Done right? Did it work?

Two separate questions, both asked after the work and both recorded. Before and after are the same saved view of the model, so the comparison is like for like.

The model is the baseline

Every place in a work order is a point on the model, and one click moves between the record and the structure it describes.

Preview of the next AerTwin release. Ask us what is running today and what is still being built — we will show you both.

Security & hosting

Built so the model never leaves the server.

Managed cloud servers, with a session placed on the one closest to your team. Nothing to install, patch or lose.

Pixels out, never geometry

The model, its textures and the measurement engine stay in the data centre. The browser receives encrypted video and numbers.

Named accounts, second factor required

Every person signs in with their own account, a password and an authenticator app. It cannot be switched off.

Access checked when it matters

Permissions are read at the moment of each action. Changing someone's role ends their live session.

Render machines hold nothing personal

GPU machines accept no inbound web connections and never receive a user's login token.

Honest by design

The model shows more than it can measure. AerTwin says which is which.

01

Crack width comes from the photograph

A 3D model cannot resolve it at any zoom, so AerTwin opens the original photograph instead.

02

Closer is not more precise

Zooming magnifies the picture. The sampling resolution is printed next to every volume.

03

No figure where none is supported

Past 60% uncertainty a volume reads Not measurable. A refusal is a correct answer, not an error.

04

An empty area is not a clean bill of health

A detector's miss rate is not known. Every report states how many proposals are not yet reviewed.

05

A sign-off belongs to one version

Edit a signed-off finding and the sign-off is withdrawn until someone accepts the new one.

06

Our accuracy statement is in writing

What is verified, how it was checked, and what is not. Ask for it before you rely on a figure.

Questions

Before the demo.

Which structures does it work on?

Bridges, dams and comparable civil structures captured by drone. The tools are the same on each — only the model changes.

Does it produce condition ratings or DIN 1076 reports?

No. AerTwin gives you the evidence behind a rating — each finding located, measured, photographed, with a severity and a named sign-off — and exports it as PDF and CSV for your own process.

What does my team need?

A current version of Chrome or Edge, a steady broadband connection, and UDP allowed through your firewall. A dedicated graphics card is not needed. We test your network with you before any pilot.

Where is it hosted?

Your session runs on the cloud server closest to your team — today that is our European data centre.

What do you need to set up our structure?

Very little. We study the structure from what you already hold — drawings, past reports, earlier surveys — together with what is publicly available, then carry out the data collection ourselves, build the model from it and host it on our servers.

Book a demo

Thirty minutes. One browser tab. A real structure.

We will stream a live model to your screen, measure it together, review AI-proposed defects and export a report — including the parts that say what the model cannot measure.
