What an assessment for AVIW0006 must cover

59 assessable components: 4 elements (27 performance criteria), 22 performance evidence and 10 knowledge evidence requirements. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Conduct pre-flight actions

1.1Own fitness for flight and planned operations is self-assessed
1.2Operational aircraft type is determined for suitability for type of aerial infrastructure inspection operation
1.3Aircraft and role equipment are checked and assessed for serviceability prior to commencing flight operations
1.4Required applicable maintenance documentation is compiled and checked for accuracy and completeness
1.5Role equipment calibration is checked and adjusted as required
1.6Planned aerial infrastructure inspection operations are assessed for potential or actual hazards
1.7Fuel/power requirements are determined and established within aerial operational plans
1.8Issues relating to aircraft weight, performance, dimensions, load and meteorological conditions are identified and managed

2 Conduct planning and risk management

2.1Suitability of current and forecast weather is determined
2.2Infrastructure inspection plan is developed and used as the basis for aerial application operations
2.3Potential and actual hazards and operational requirements are identified, risks to aerial infrastructure inspection operations are assessed and appropriate risk controls implemented in accordance with the application management plan
2.4Area map is correctly interpreted
2.5Acceptable aircraft performance for aerial infrastructure inspection operational conditions is confirmed through performance planning
2.6Normal and abnormal operational communications and signals are confirmed

3 Conduct aerial mapping and modelling

3.1Appropriate aerial survey plans are developed for conducting safe aerial mapping and modelling operations
3.2Operating area boundaries are established and environmentally sensitive areas identified, including areas that are noise sensitive, biologically susceptible, populated and urban, and restricted or dangerous
3.3Potential emergency or alternate landing areas are identified and/or established for contingency operations
3.4Environmental hazard factors affecting aerial mapping and modelling operations are considered
3.5Wind velocity and direction are assessed for effect on operations
3.6Infrastructure inspection operations is conducted safely in accordance with the application management plan
3.7Infrastructure inspection equipment is operated within scope of the plan
3.8Decisions to suspend or continue safe aerial infrastructure inspection are taken based on planned or actual operating conditions
3.9Power lines within and outside the treatment area during an aerial survey are identified and accurately assessed to support safe operations in vicinity of power lines, including safe flying parallel to wires

4 Perform infrastructure inspections

4.1Infrastructure and condition assessment criteria are verified and understood prior to the inspection
4.2Data capture process is selected based on the type of infrastructure
4.3Various types of structural failures are recognised and recorded
4.4Infrastructure data and records are provided in accordance with client requirements

Questions about assessing AVIW0006

What does an assessment tool for AVIW0006 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AVIW0006 needs to address all 59 unit components: 4 elements with 27 performance criteria, 22 performance evidence requirements, 10 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for AVIW0006?

Auditori pulls the current release of AVIW0006 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for AVIW0006 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AVIW0006 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of AVIW0006, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
