AssetDMS Pipe Survey Data Collection Software
Simple. Powerful. Robust.
PACP/LACP/MACP Certified, easy-to-use, touchscreen enabled software for pipeline survey data collection, reporting and analysis
We developed the data collection process specifically to enable the user in the field to collect data without having to manage multiple screens and complex database software programs. Utilizing a touchscreen interface like today’s smartphones and other modern electronics makes the use of AssetDMS more second nature than work.
- Compatible with a wide range of manufacturer's CCTV systems
- PACP/LACP/MACP certified by NASSCO
- Import/Export from ANY certified PACP/LACP/MACP database
- Compatible with Microsoft Windows 7 thru 10 operating systems
- Intutive design and self-guiding prompts
- No need to remember all PACP codes and rules
- PACP reference photos for codes
Collection of data is streamlined, simplified and accurate with the use of built-in user prompts so critical information is always captured
A Richly Functional and Intelligent User Experience (UI/UX)
Intuitive Design
AssetDMS allows intuitive data collection through a simple touchscreen. It was designed with the asset owner (municipality/contractor) and the user (operator) in mind. This unique software was created to make the CCTV pipeline inspection process faster, easier and more productive.
- Complete on-screen/context-sensitive help file
- Drop-down menus and intuitive prompts provide quick access to common PACP
- Standard reference points, such as: Defects, Pipe materials, Survey purpose, Locations, Pipe usage, etc.
- Extensive reporting and easy to understand analysis tools
- Data exported from a PACP database or ArcGIS® software can pre-populate work orders and inspection header information, based on the historical data
Fully User-Driven Record and Playback Experience
AssetDMS puts record/playback power in the hands of the user. An array of intelligent features allows you to specify:
- format
- resolution
- playback speed
- and more
Through an industrial touchscreen monitor on a Windows® 7 Professional thru Windows 10 Professional platform, AssetDMS is designed to collect PACP-LACP inspection data, video files and JPEG images.
Users can select their choice of video recording formats. MPEG1, MPEG2, MPEG4, and H.264 are included as standard recording options.
A continuous digital video recording is made of the inspection view as it appears on the television monitor. This becomes a permanent record of defects found. The digital video encoding includes both sound and video.
These images or video clips can be easily launched for viewing during inspection report review. Depending on the nature of the project, video logging and image capture are available. These may be entered in video surveys either in real time or later, from previously recorded inspections.
- An MPEG image is taken at each saved observation, and automatically time-logged
- The recording can be paused for brief periods
- Software can automatically resume recording from paused point when tractor resumes forward motion
- Recordings can be stopped and then continued via the APPEND feature
- Playback may be viewed from one-quarter to 10X normal speed with no video distortion
- Live and recorded video can be played side-by-side on screen for comparison
Due to the wide variety of defect and observation codes, each with specific requirements, we integrated a front-end validation tool for PACP-LACP compliance. This eliminates the need for operators to remember every single coding requirement.
Powerful, Industry-Leading Analysis Capabilities
Data without analysis is just numbers. At AssetDMS, we’ve built in powerful analytical capabilities, allowing the user to filter extensive data sets by date/condition/geography/codes
and a whole lot more, to drive informed and accurate decision-making.
- The basic software module has search (filter) capabilities to find information about past surveys located in the database(s)
- The basic software module maintains a database of underground pipe and manhole assets with the entry form allowing additional detail about the pipe to be added, including map coordinates
- A Reader is provided for viewing and printing all information, and JPEG files can be captured using the Reader from the MPEG file
- The Site Sketch feature allows the operator to create a drawing or sketch to indicate special details about a particular asset, such as location anomalies
Powerful, Flexible Reporting Capabilities
AssetDMS allows you to interpret collected inspection data through highly customizable charts and graphs, for all your presentation and analysis needs. The intuitive interface allows the user to choose from a wide variety of axis attributes, scales and data points, giving you and your customer the power to drive visually rich, informed decision-making.
Some of AssetDMS’s most noteworthy reporting capabilities include:
If only a partial inspection of a manhole-to-manhole section is possible, a reverse setup is performed—per PACP requirement—as a second survey, then both inspections are displayed as a single report in Pipe Graphic and Tabular Reports
Section summary reports are available: all surveys within a section are listed, showing purpose of inspection, dates, work order numbers, manholes, road names and total lengths
Service and structural aspect scoring reports list the pipe segment reference number, total observed length, number of defects and total score (these are expressed as figures regarding condition of the total pipe; average of the pipe; total defects; and average of defects)
