What is the future of sewer inspection services and pipeline inspection technology?
- Sewer Inspection Services are continually evolving. Transitioning from capturing sewer inspection data on VHS tapes to capturing sewer inspection televising digitally to the most current evolution of real time defect detection identification using Artificial Intelligence algorithm techniques.
- Pipeline Inspection Technology advances will positively affect Sewer Infrastructure Monitoring, Sewer System Diagnostics and Sewer Maintenance Technology.
- Sewer System Diagnostics are advancing through the utilization of AI Object detection algorithms. This AI technology identifies precise itemized sewer defects like Sewer Pipe Cracks, Sewer Leak Detection, Root Intrusion and Sewer Joint Misalignment.
- AI pipeline Inspection Technology provides continual consistency to an industry that traditionally was only as good as the sewer camera operator gathering the sewer defect data.
- The evolution of Automated sewer defect detection contributes to developing proactive sewer maintenance programs versus reactive sewer maintenance programs. AI Sewer Defect Identification consistency provides sewer collection system operators the confidence needed to verify required sewer collection system maintenance fund requests.
- If history is any indication, sewer collection system issues occur during Holiday Seasons or during a Rain Event when there is increased sanitary sewer pressure on the sewer collection system. Holiday and Rain Event sewer emergencies create budget cost overruns. Improved sewer maintenance with AI technology helps to mitigate unanticipated sanitary sewer emergencies due to more thorough sewer defect data collection.
