Unlocking Insights: Data Archives in Storm Damage Assessment

Minimize downtime and boost your productivity.

Précis
  • Problem: The unpredictable aftermath of a storm.
  • Solution: An archive of regular monitoring data.
  • Benefit: Fast, efficient storm response.

For one Satelytics customer, a relentless 48-hour freeze transformed the landscape into a shimmering wonderland, but at a hefty price. With nearly a quarter inch of ice blanketing everything, travel became perilous, and the region’s electrical grid took a beating as falling trees and branches wreaked havoc, knocking out power for many. In situations like this, Satelytics’ utility customers harness their data archives and monitoring alerts to swiftly prioritize storm damage assessment and response, ensuring they’re ready to tackle the aftermath.


What exactly is a data archive? Think of it as a historical treasure trove, capturing a log of activities and threats that have impacted customers' significant asset areas. At Satelytics, we believe in preserving every piece of data, which means our customers’ archives stretch all the way back to the start of their monitoring journeys—whether that was just 10 weeks ago or a decade in the past.
Can Satelytics Analyze Historical Data?

Satelytics’ Constant Vigilance™ algorithms dive deep into every pixel, analyzing conditions and substances with incredible precision—down to the square foot! For utilities, this means tracking vital tree attributes like height, species, and health, along with monitoring encroachments in the wire zone and land movement. Each tree in the asset area is assigned a unique identification number, allowing for continuous monitoring of its condition and characteristics throughout the program's lifespan. Our customers leverage this wealth of data to craft smart models for tree trimming and maintenance schedules, ensuring their operations run smoothly and efficiently.

A Satelytics data archive proves to be a game-changer in disaster response, especially during events like the ice storm we discussed earlier. With Satelytics’ powerful algorithms, teams receive alerts about damages just a few hours after satellite overpass. This accurate data archive allows for rapid assessment and tagging of damaged trees and infrastructure, ensuring that response crews can swiftly tackle areas in urgent need of remediation. It’s a vital tool that transforms how we respond to crises!
