TIO Stadium inspection

TIO Stadium inspection

Client: HK Solutions | Northern Territory Government (NTG)


TIO Stadium is the Northern Territory’s premier outdoor stadium. The 12,000 capacity stadium was built in 1991 primarily to cater for Australian Football. 

Rise was contracted by HK Solutions to undertake an aerial inspection of the stadium roof and lighting towers; and roof take-offs with a UAV aerial drone. The aerial inspection included identification of debris, drainage problems, incomplete works, missing parts, rust and birds nests in the lighting tower! The roof measurements included perimeter, pitch, surface area, edge types and edge measurements. 


A critical consideration for this project was that TIO Stadium is located within 1 nautical mile of Darwin International Airport, one of only two Australian airports managed by the Department of Defence. This required Rise to prepare and lodge CASA approvals to fly within this restricted airspace; to hold a Defence RPAS (Darwin International Airport); to have two licensed operators (RePL and AROC) on site with one in constant radio contact with the Air Traffic Control tower.

We are so proud to have our investment into the development of a tropical bathymetric USV (unmanned service vehicle) secure matched funding from Advanced Manufacturing Growth Centre Ltd. Current wastewater survey methods are often not fit-for-purpose for the waste water conditions in tropical Northern Australia - high debris loads and organic matter.
