Asset Management Teams
Explore Neara's solutions to understand the condition of assets at an individual and at a network level, in order to make better investment decisions while optimizing CAPEX and OPEX spend.
mitigation
Centralize asset maintenance monitoring and analysis in one location
Asset Analytics & Risk Mitigation
Neara combines maintenance data, degradation and change analytics, and asset history with structural, stress, and loading analysis at network scale.
- Define network models for condition-based assessment
- Stress test the network under maximum allowable conditions, and automatically flag areas and assets at high risk of failure
- Construct, audit, and optimize inspection and replacement scheduling
- Integrate with existing defect / task management systems
- Identify problems using Neara’s Analyze Modules, then immediately design solutions using Neara’s Design Modules – all on the same platform
climate
Prepare for and respond to extreme weather and climate events to build grid resiliency
Climate & Weather Resilience
Wildfires, severe winds, floods, and snow storms are just some of the potentially catastrophic events that threaten the integrity of critical infrastructure with increasing frequency. Neara provides tools for utilities to prepare for and respond to extreme weather and climate events, and build grid resiliency.
- Simulate extreme environmental conditions network-wide to prepare for weather events
- Find points of likely asset failure and prioritize remediation to ensure the most vulnerable, most critical network components are hardened
- As an extreme weather event unfolds, use Neara to identify affected assets, prioritize response initiatives, and provide up-to-date information to field and control teams
structural
Understand precise loading, stress, and tension on every asset across the entire network
Structural Analysis
Neara enables utilities to run at-scale Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on all poles, cross-arms, and sub-components.
- Identify the “invisible” risks of poles and assemblies under high-stress or approaching maximum loading, and prioritize remediation programs accordingly
- Simulate environmental conditions network-wide. Predict the consequences of extreme wind, snow, and heat events before they occur
- Perform multi-pole failure analysis to identify points of elevated failure risk across your network
- Propose solutions and mitigations immediately – add guy-wires, splints, change material types, then rerun analysis to immediately see the effects
assets
Identify, compare and correct missing and mislocated assets
Asset Correction
You can’t manage, track, or mend what you can’t locate. Every missing or mislocated asset in a network is a potential risk for the utility owner. Neara identifies network assets from field-captured LiDAR and intelligently compares them with existing network databases to detect, triage, and correct discrepancies.
- Reconcile GIS with your assets in the field. Identify candidate poles and spans from LiDAR that are missing from network GIS. Identify GIS assets that no longer exist in reality. Correct the coordinates of all pole and span assets in your network GIS
- Comprehensively identify network asset components by combining LiDAR and other sources at network scale, including poles, spans, insulators, pole-top equipment, transformers, reclosers, spreaders, and more
For utilities looking to extract as much data as they can from network scans, Neara offers advanced asset detection and automatic tagging capabilities.
attachments
Identify and analyze the effect of third party attachments
3rd Party Attachments
Third party assets such as telecommunications and private cables can affect clearance, structural integrity, and accessibility of utility assets. Neara provides the tools to identify and analyze the effect of third party attachments on utility infrastructure.
- Understand where all third party attachments are across the network and immediately identify any clearance or encroachment violations
- Automatically identify all assets in your network that can accept further third party attachments and cables, while maintaining clearance loading limitations
- Instantly confirm adequate clearance and loading along entire cable routes
