Established in 2014, Aerodyne uses AI to integrate large-scale data operations and analytics into its drone offerings. The company said it has managed over 560,000 infrastructure assets with 458,058 flight operations across 35 countries globally.
Kamarul Muhamed, founder and group CEO of Aerodyne, said that the partnership would allow the company to tap into the Scandinavian region’s large renewable energy sector. In 2020, Denmark and Norway had a total renewable capacity of 9,677 megawatts and 37.2 terawatts, respectively.
“There is also a huge opportunity to break data silos in the oil and gas sector, and with room to improve in how data can be standardized, integrated, and analyzed,” he added.
