3 Summary It is almost inevitable that Proof of Concept investigations will produce both successes and failures. How these extremes are analysed and acted upon will ultimately determine the framework for moving this project forward. In this instance, both Anglian Water and Texo Drone Services found the site work to be very informative in understanding the needs, processes, limitations and aspirations for both sides. There is little doubt that remote sensing could have a vital role to play in the detection of mains water leaks. Certainly the advanced equipment and expertise that Texo Drone Services have available means that Anglian Water should be able to develop a realistic solution to such a costly problem. It is worth emphasising, that ongoing success should be measured in incremental steps as the refinement of technology and operational methods develop by the collaboration of both companies.

4 Methodology Our Process Scope Thermography The purpose of these trial days, was to provide Anglian Water and Texo Drone Services engineers the opportunity to combine their skills and experience to investigate the potential for using remote sensing equipment / drones to find mains pipe water leaks. Therefore, no prescribed process was adhered to, save for the normal H&S or SOP s followed in the deployment of drones. Several sites were identified by Anglian Water as either with the potential for water leaks or previously confirmed as a leak area. The aim of the exercise was to see if any correlation could be ascertained from the data gathered and known site conditions such that predictions for other leak sites could be confidently undertaken. Thus, at each site discussion would cover the most appropriate technique and how it should be implemented. Health & Safety In addition to the normal Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS) prepared before a site visit, another process is also undertaken to ensure the safety, legality and appropriateness of using drones to facilitate the capture of aerial digital and thermal images. This process, undertaken as a desktop exercise, checks CAA Notams, flight-path restrictions and other potential hazards that may preclude the safe conduct of any flight. This procedure is then augmented on-site, where a visual inspection is combined with further assessment including radio frequency interference, kp index and GPS satellite locks. This survey and report combines images to provide a general thermographic and multispectral overview of three sites. Whilst care has been taken to record thermal images (thermograms) as accurately as possible, absolute temperature values obtained are of secondary value, as the qualitative relationship between different parts of the ground provides far more useful information regarding the potential for underground leaks. Variable environmental conditions, together with changes in camera angle, distance, material change and emissivity can all adversely affect the result. However, by combining images with equal parameters the relative change of temperature across selected areas will be accurate and therefore useful analysis can be made. From discussions prior to the survey, the following points have been incorporated into the methodology of data collection and presentation of findings: The survey is to include the general scanning and capturing of selected images that fairly represent the situation (qualitative survey). Anomalies noted to be identified either within the narrative or on the image. The survey is to be conducted in accordance with all CAA operator permissions, thermographic / multispectral camera specifications, environmental considerations and pre-agreed RAMS. Thermography (otherwise known as thermal imaging) is a specialist technique which uses thermal imaging cameras to capture infrared radiated wavelengths. When undertaking any survey, Texo Drone Services use specialist, purpose-built infrared camera cores with the highest detector sizes x available to the commercial market. In reference to digital cameras, this may initially be dismissed as a very low resolution, but it must be remembered that the data captured is equivalent to a thermometer in each cell; a total of 327,680 thermometers in every image. Several hundred individual images are often captured during the course of a survey, which can be stitched into panoramic thermograms or overlaid on a digital equivalent (orthomosiac).

7 Image Set 2 Digital Image Raw Captured: 28/09/2017 It is very unusual to find naturally occurring straight lines within a thermographic image. The arrowed section above was noted during the flight and subsequently examined in more detail. The differential heating across the ground and trees is very small but continuous, thus confirming that no evidence existed to indicate any excess moisture in any part of this image.

This image represents a small area which appeared cooler and out of context to the surrounding vegetation. An inverted rainbow pallet was applied to the image and the span reduced to emphasise the anomalous area (circled above). The yellow pinpoints the centre of the leak with the effect extending into the red areas. This was indeed a known leak area and had previously been marked as such by Anglian Water, although not communicated to Texo Drone Services until after the survey info@texodroneservices.co.uk 10

Processed w/ Region of Interest Captured: 31/10/2017 Palette: Rainbow As part of the overhead scanning using thermal information, it was anticipated that mains water would appear as the coldest element within the image. However, other factors need to be considered such as the effect of shadowing. In the above image purple areas both below and to the right of the marked box show a similar temperature but equally are known to be dry. In this instance therefore, it can be concluded that no evidence exists to suggest a leak below ground info@texodroneservices.co.uk 13
14 Multispectral Capture This multispectral image has been processed using a standard NDVI formula originally devised to determine the health of vegetation. In this instance, it has been trialled to observe if localised excess water has contributed to plant growth. The red areas are roads, tracks or compacted ground where no green leaf (chlorophyll) matter exists. The green areas of the map highlight where there is healthy growth. The arrows indicate the areas of interest near the road, away from the influence of parked cars or other foreign objects, that ordinarily should have provided a consistent result. Despite the colour changes seen, there was no other evidence to substantiate any leaks and must be considered inconclusive info@texodroneservices.co.uk 14
