What are aerial markers?
While the various applications for aerial markers vary, the general design is based around the concept of a heavy duty, weatherproof sign system, constructed and arranged in such as a way as to be easily visible from the viewpoint of an airplane pilot or helicopter pilot (or official onboard observer) at low to medium aircraft altitudes. Colors such as bright yellow, safety green, or brilliant white are often utilized to aid in creating high visibility.
What are aerial markers used for?
Transmission systems such as pipelines, underground electrical cables, water lines, and other conveyances can become damaged due to accidents, construction activities, acts of nature, or even normal wear and tear. When a leak or other problem arises, aerial markers are instrumental in helping airborne spotters locate, plot, and report the exact area of the mishap. Aerial markers can help reduce the amount of time and money it takes to fix a problem, directly benefitting a company’s bottom line, as well as the environment through which the transmission system is laid.
