ABC Surveys and VISION ME have completed the first LiDAR project for overhead lines in the U.A.E. and Middle East. The project consisted of the topographic survey, of a 72 kilometre route, between Fujeirah, Dibba and Taween substations, on the East coast, of the United Arab Emirates. The client Inabensa Engineering and TRANSCO are designing a new 132 KV overhead line. TRANSCO is a U.A.E. government state company responsible for developing, operating and maintaining the high voltage power transmission networks. A Decision has been made to use LiDAR survey due to the extremely difficult route, in terms of access, as it crosses the central mountain range in the U.A.E.
