Digital AECOM - Version PipeInsights -AI/ML Sewer Inspection Program
Digital AECOM offers PipeInsights, a solution that leverages AI and machine learning technology to enhance the efficiency and precision of sewer inspection operations. By utilizing advanced analytical capabilities, PipeInsights enables clients to speed up inspection processes, thus allowing them to allocate more resources towards addressing pressing water infrastructure challenges. Recognized with the Digital Products Award at the Innovation Spotlight Awards 2022, this tool assists in gaining comprehensive insights into pipe assets, optimizing both the maintenance and planning of sewer systems. PipeInsights stands out for its ability to process intricate data effectively, supporting infrastructure professionals in managing key issues within the water sector. Users can book a demo to explore how these advanced capabilities can be integrated into their operations.
User uploads
A user will upload coded or uncoded CCTV inspection videos and data into the cloud-based platform.
Applies data science
Data science is applied to the inspections, the data quality is reviewed and confidence levels are provided.
Processes data
AI/ML data processing flags potential coding errors or missed codes and automates the defect coding process.
Identifies risks
The PipeInsights platform will then identify and display structural and operational risks in your collection system.
Recommends treatments
Recommends structural and operational treatments though a built-in and engineered decision support system.
Provides information
Detailed information and costs are provided to enable the development of your asset capital improvement plans.
