Indji Watch is the world’s first web-based hazard monitoring system that uses spatial information to deliver real-time analysis of risks and hazards against the physical location of fixed or mobile assets, and initiates intelligent actions and warnings when assets are under threat.
The application was developed using a sophisticated mapping analysis system that brings together multiple data streams into a single, web-enabled interface that is easily deployable and cost-efficient to operate. Its framework enables volumes of raw data to be visualised seamlessly in real time, and its ability to program actions based on pre-defined business rules means that Indji Watch can automatically send targetted notifications using a range of communication methods, as well as intelligently triggering actions such as sounding sirens or activating sprinklers.
Since launching, Indji Watch has been successful in reducing the likelihood of damage to property and injury to people for electrical utilities. The application has provided a way for the Australian utilities industry to efficiently mitigate the risk of loss of life or damage to infrastructure, information critical decision-making and also increase operational efficiencies relating to effective hazard management.
The intelligent system is dynamic and secure and can be adapted according to pre-defined business rules, allowing advanced customisation and applicability to a range of different industries where effective hazard management is paramount to business operations.
The application has demonstrated effectiveness with the majority of electricity transmission networks in Australia for its ability to stream multiple third party datasets into a single web-browser interface, and effectively notify key personnel with the information they require to make critical business decisions. This has increased productivity, reduced costs and helped in militating against the risk of damage to both fixed and mobile assets from unforeseen threats and hazards.
The product is ground-breaking because it not only displays information from various different sources, but also intelligently analyses this information and can automatically initiate actions.
Indji Watch automates current labour-intensive manual processes providing a faster response through a fully integrated web-based service, which delivers deployment in days rather than months.
The real-time evaluation and analysis means that preventative action in a timely manner, which means it is more likely that the threat of damage to property and injury to people or loss of life is greatly reduced.
If specific criteria are met, the system sends notification messages to specified stakeholders. Each threat situation is directly accessible through an online web client, enabling authoring to assess the situation rapidly, wherever they may be.
Indji Watch:
- Is applicable to all industries where natural and man-made hazards pose a risk to the lives of employees and citizens, as well as fixed and mobile assets.
- Simultaneously monitors multiple data streams from multiple sources and locations, delivering time-synchronised, fault-tolerant hazard monitoring.
- Delivers increased flexibility through the option of Software as a Service (SaaS) subscription-based purchase model, delivering efficiency and economy.
- Helps to reduce the risk of injury to employees, loss and damage to assets, by enabling real-time monitoring and earlier warning of risks.
As there is a vast range of potentially different monitoring scenarios and data feeds, the system was built in a generic and configurable way, so it is capable of expanding into a wide range of new applications and industries.
