    Description

    Sewer pipelines are buried and out of sight. They are underinvested in and rapidly deteriorating. There are millions of miles of sewer pipelines that require monitoring to determine the condition and performance of this critical infrastructure. The principal method that utilities use involves closed-circuit television (CCTV) mounted video cameras on crawler units. Video and photographs of the insides of pipes are interpreted by engineers trained in the art of sewer pipeline defect recognition. This time-consuming and expensive process usually carried out in the field is increasingly being challenged by the use of AI and machine learning (ML) image detection and recognition techniques. See how the integration of Autodesk's Info360 Asset SaaS asset management product and VAPAR AI/ML tools will transform the assessment of sewer pipeline conditions, leading to huge cost and efficiency savings and productivity gains. Learn how these inspections are used to identify failure modes and determine the likelihood of failure and remaining life of assets.

    Key Learnings

    • Learn about how the water industry is solving problems related to aging and deteriorating sewer infrastructure assets.
    • Learn how and why Autodesk desktop asset-management products are migrating to the cloud.
    • See how AI/ML is used for the purposes of condition-based, tactical, sewer-pipeline capital improvement planning in Info360.
