Disclosed is a system and method for infrastructure inspection, comprising means for generating a 3D model of a specific piece of infrastructure, such as a LIDAR or photogrammetric sensor on board a helicopter or UAV, the model acting as a basis for creating a waypoint sequence according to which a route will be programmed, which will later be followed by vehicles for inspecting the piece of infrastructure. The vehicles are preferably multi-rotor UAVs that carry out their inspection by gathering data without a LIDAR sensor and which, when performing their programmed route, will be able to dispense with complex on-board electronic processing equipment, all of which results in greater flight autonomy.
