3. Introduction
In this guide, you’ll learn how to use visualAI to make your Drone Inspections easier,
faster, and more efficient. The step-by-step guide intends to quickly get you started with
the features that the visualAI Inspections tool has to offer.
visualAI is a cloud based software that helps one analyse, manage and share one’s drone
data. visualAI offers different tools for different industries like Mining, Solar, Industrial/
Rooftop Inspections, Construction, and Agriculture. This means that you can upload your
images on the platform, use the functions present in that industry specific tool to analyse
these images, and then generate customised reports for your project.
visualAI works best with Chrome on Windows, and Safari on Mac.

4. visualAI Inspections
visualAI Inspections is a data management and analytics tool that makes it easier for
Drone Pilots, Inspectors, and Analysts to scout through thousands of drone images, and
quickly identify the problems.
It allows users to upload the drone images of the site that they have inspected, create
annotations for faults/issues on these images and convert these findings into cohesive
reports for their clients. The tool is powered by Image Processing and Deep Learning
algorithms and therefore, learns from the user’s inputs.
Once the user annotates a fault on the platform, the tool auto-identifies all other images
where the same fault is visible, and automatically annotates them. This saves the user
both time and effort as he doesn’t have to mark the same fault over and over again. The
tool enables the user to add tags, leave comments, mark the severity level of the marked
issues and update the resolution status of the fault. Finally, the tool allows the user to
brand the report with the user’s organisation’s logo and share the same with the client.

10. Annotation Toolbox has the options to add more details to the features identified by the
user. The following data points can be directly added:
- Fault Status: Pending or Resolved - Tags (Type and press Enter)
- Severity: Low, Medium or High - Comments
Annotation Toolbox
Use the Pen Tool
from the Inspection
Toolbar to annotate
on an image. This will
b r i n g u p t h e
Annotation Toolbox at
the bottom of the
screen.
• As soon as an annotation is created, the algorithms auto-annotate the same fault
visible from different perspectives across all the images.
• As in the case here, the fault with ID#2 in image DJI0001 is also present in image
DJI0999, DJI0998, and DJI0997. The tool has auto-annotated the fault in all of them
while keeping the fault ID consistent throughout these images.
iSpections
(Intelligent Inspections)
Multiple perspectives
of the same fault help
the user gauge the
issue by preventing
false positives &
reducing the time
spent in marking the
same fault/ID across
multiple images.

12. Project Dashboard
Project Dashboard is the go-to page for accessing user projects and creating new ones.
Here, the user can quickly see the list of projects with their details in a single window.
Current Projects
My Projects is the place where you’ll find all your inspections that you have created so far.
Your inspections will be listed along with details such as:
- Company under which the inspection has been created
- Inspection Type (Example – solar, roof, transmission and so on)
- Date of creation
- Image Count of the Inspection
- The Inspection Status (Private or Public)

13. Project Status
Accessibility status of the project - Private or Public. The only difference between the two
is the accessibility by the Guest Accounts.
Setting up Guest Accounts is a great way to share your inspection data with your clients,
as they are able to see the analysis and the captured images, but not edit anything.
Create New Project
In “My Projects”, click on “Create New” to create a new inspection.
Search a Project
Use the search bar to find a project quickly when the list gets too long
My Profile
Click here to edit your account settings, like:
- Name
- Time Zone
- Contact Number
- Billing Plans (This is also where you would find your unique Referral Code, in case
you’d like to recommend visualAI to your friends)

17. Creating your Inspection Report
Generating an automated report is easy – the images and the issues are auto-populated
in a clean online interface. No more copy-paste-cut-crop in Microsoft Word, Apple
Pages! The auto-generated reports are good-to-go by default and need no user changes.
At the same time, visualAI offers plenty of editing options to customise your report.
To generate a report click on the Download report button on the Inspection Dashboard.
The report cover has the name of your
project, the date and the option to add the
address of the surveyed location. You can
edit the date and address by clicking on
them.
You can also add your logo by simply
clicking on the Upload Logo button.
The report contains a default page for the
Disclaimer, and Summary, which can be
removed by clicking on the Remove button
on the top of the page. The report will
provide you with the project’s information
where you can add the description and
weather for the inspection.
Page !17

18. The report provides a fault summary
which, will list all the faults and their
respective severity levels marked by you.
Furthermore, the report will provide
detailed information about each fault,
along with all the images in which the fault
has been identified.
You can zoom in on an image to provide
the desired view of the fault and can add
notes that complement the images. Your
comments and tags can be seen on each
fault. The reports can be customized as
per your needs by clicking on the settings
button, and selecting and deselecting the
report features you require.

19. Sharing your Inspection
visualAI gives you multiple options to share your Inspections with your team, and with
your clients. This is directly connected to the User Access Management, so you might like
to read up about the Company Management to understand Sharing thoroughly.
Toggle: Private – Public
Guest Users in User Access Management can view all the Public projects listed within
their Company. The Private-Public toggle controls which projects of the Company can be
viewed by the guests.
Page !19
Public
Visible to the Guest Users as well
Private Only visible to the Inspectors

20. Let’s take an example to understand this further:
An Inspector, Murph, is working on inspecting 100 wind turbines for Endurance Power
Company. A representative, Mann, from Endurance has been added to Murph’s visualAI
account as a Guest User.
Now, Murph can set an Inspection as Private or Public, depending on it’s completion
status. Mann can log-in to visualAI with his guest credentials and see all the projects
done for Endurance that have been made public by Murph.
- By default, all projects are set to Private.
- Guest users can only see projects belonging to their Company. For example, Murph
could be inspecting for multiple companies, but Mann will only see Public projects
made for Endurace.
Share Button
Clicking on the Share button generates a public link of the project that can be seen by
anyone on the Internet.
- No Sign-Up/Sign-In required to view the project with this link.
- The public link allows the viewer Guest level of access, which means that the viewer
would be able to view the captured images. annotations, comments, geo-location,
EXIF, and the reports.
- The viewer would not have the option to edit anything.
That’s it for this guide — so get out there and conduct your first inspection! Check out
training videos, documentation and support on www.visualAI.io
Happy flying!
