Summary: Analyzed powerline geometry and conductor sag using LiDAR data to assess wire curvature, ground clearance, and potential electrical safety risks.
Detailed Description: This project focuses on analyzing overhead power transmission lines using LiDAR point cloud data and geospatial processing techniques. The workflow involves identifying and analyzing powerline conductors, extracting their spatial coordinates, and assessing conductor sag and clearance. Sag measurements help determine the vertical deviation of conductors between support structures, while clearance analysis supports the identification of potentially critical locations. The project demonstrates the application of LiDAR and GIS techniques for powerline infrastructure assessment, electrical safety evaluation, and transmission corridor management.
Status: Completed — one powerline segment analyzed for conductor sag and electrical clearance as part of the case study.
Research Area: LiDAR-Based Infrastructure Monitoring, Powerline Sag Estimation, Electrical Clearance Assessment, Remote Sensing, Utility Corridor Management.
Technology: LiDAR Point Cloud Processing, GIS, 3D Spatial Analysis, Conductor Geometry Analysis, Sag Calculation.
