In the evolving landscape of utility management, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly emerging as a transformative tool that enhances the efficiency and accuracy of sewer pipe inspections. Utility owners traditionally spend significant time and resources reviewing CCTV footage for sewer inspections. AI, through advanced machine learning algorithms, can replicate the workflow and thought process of contractors, thereby streamlining the process of coding and performing QA/QC of sewer inspections.
Efficiency and Accuracy: AI technology drastically reduces the time required to obtain and review inspection data. By eliminating human bias, AI increases the accuracy of defect identification and coding. This technological advancement allows contractors to inspect more footage in less time, reducing the overall cost per foot for utility owners.
How It Works: AI systems equipped with computer vision and machine learning components get smarter with each data processing cycle. The computer vision acts as the “eyes,” examining CCTV footage to identify features like taps, cracks, and obstructions. The machine learning component, serving as the “brain,” enhances its understanding of these defects over time. Upon detecting a defect, the AI system assigns the appropriate code, ensuring consistency and precision.
Geospatial Integration: The integration of AI with geographic information systems (GIS) creates a digital twin of the sewer collection system. This digital twin allows utility owners to visualize the condition of sewer assets and geographically pinpoint each defect and construction feature. Such a dynamic database replaces static PDF reports, offering a more effective tool for system maintenance. Utility providers can quickly evaluate their infrastructure’s condition, making data-driven, transparent, and repeatable decisions.
Predictive Maintenance and Integration: AI’s capability extends beyond immediate defect identification to predictive maintenance. By analyzing historical data and identifying patterns, AI can predict potential failures, enabling proactive rather than reactive maintenance strategies. Additionally, AI tools can seamlessly integrate with existing sewer inspection equipment and software, enhancing current systems without necessitating complete overhauls.
Join the Discussion: Join us for a session where we delve into the transformative benefits of AI in sewer maintenance. Learn how AI can serve as a low-cost, efficient means to evaluate systems, prioritize rehabilitation, and coordinate capital improvement projects. Discover how AI-driven insights can revolutionize asset management and decision-making processes for utility providers.
