Use of drones for safety inspections at Greek airports
A new partnership has recently been launched between Fraport Greece and the Centre for Research and Technology-Hellas (CERTH), aiming to upgrade services at the country's regional airports. This initiative focuses on the use of modern technology for better infrastructure management.
At the heart of this collaboration is the use of drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles, to inspect airport facilities. These drones will fly over airport grounds, accurately recording the condition of buildings and runways.
The main purpose of this action is the preventive maintenance of critical infrastructure. Through technology, officials can identify any damage or problems in a timely manner, before they become dangerous to the safety of passengers and employees.
The implementation of this technology is expected to make inspection procedures faster and more efficient. At the same time, the collaboration with CERTH demonstrates Fraport Greece's effort to integrate innovative solutions into the daily operation of the airports it manages in Greece.
With the completion of this program, Greek regional airports are strengthening their level of safety, following modern international standards. The use of drones represents a significant step toward the modernization of our country's aviation infrastructure.
