Investigate the alarm at a remote site.

A temperature alarm arrives from a remote site. Before sending a team, you need to see the equipment and check the latest inspection. This is the kind of review we are designing ARDVI to support.

Illustrative concept · Planned workflows

The goal

Put the alarm beside the site evidence.

Find the affected equipment and review the records that explain the alarm.

Site context
Locate the affected site and equipment, keeping the alarm in view.
Local continuity
Plan recording and storage around the connection available at each site.
Related evidence
Bring the footage, temperature readings and inspection notes into the same review.

Illustrative site story

Investigate a temperature alarm.

Follow this planned workflow from a remote alarm to a decision about the affected equipment.

Check the site before deciding to send a team.
RegionAn alarm needs attention

An alarm identifies the remote site that needs attention.

  • Regional overview
  • Site E07
  • Alarm raised
SiteThe affected zone is located

Locate the affected inverter block on the site plan.

  • Inverter block
  • Thermal source
  • Local sensor state
EvidenceCompare the records

Compare the video and thermal readings with the latest inspection record.

  • Live video
  • Thermal change
  • Inspection record
ReviewDecide whether to send a team

Decide whether to send a field team and record the reason.

  • Escalation path
  • Field coordination
  • Site update

Planned workflow example. Sensor inputs, operator review and orchestration are not yet released.

Possible reviews

Give remote teams a clear view of the problem.

Each example begins with a site event, then follows the records needed to review it.

Remote site review
Check conditions at a remote site from the central team's view.
Inspection context
Compare inspection notes with footage of the same equipment.
Perimeter event context
Check an alert at the perimeter against nearby cameras and site activity.
Cross-site investigation
Investigate related activity at different sites with the original records available.

Existing infrastructure

Work with the equipment already at the site.

Start by reviewing your cameras, network and storage. Agree any future sensor connections as part of a defined pilot.

Existing systems
Check the cameras you already use and identify the records a future investigation would need.
Workload placement
Choose site or central processing to suit the available network.
Incremental scope
Test one site or investigation before expanding the scope.

Discuss your requirements

Start with the sites you operate.

Describe your sites, existing systems and the information that is hardest to keep together today.
