Automation and technological innovation has been at the forefront of development due to the advantages it has offered to various industries, especially the industrial, construction, and marine industries. Let’s look at how the remote monitoring aspect has been improved to increase productivity, efficiency, and quality of work being performed.
Product Overview
The HoistCam™ Director Remote Enterprise Software is an all-in-one site monitoring software which shows you all the footage being received from all of your HoistcamTM equipment installed and being used on-site. Live video feed is fed to the software through Wi-Fi, 3G, or 4G connectivity, which is also recorded at the same time it is being transmitted to the central server. Incident evaluation can also be performed to determine the reason behind any accident occurring, if any. Coupled with the HoistCam™ Director Site Tracker Service, this complete package can help you at every step of the way, from the planning phase to the evaluation and reporting phase.
Features
- Central real-time video monitoring of all HoistcamTM equipment from any part of the world through Wi-Fi as well as 3G and 4G connectivity
- GPS and cloud-based footage recording and playback function
- Date and time-based archiving functionality to replay recordings stored on a central server, hard drive, or memory card
- 3D video rendering function providing map overlay to evaluate quality of work being performed on site
- Instant alarm notification in case of an accident or emergency at the site
Benefits
- Real-time Monitoring
The live video feed being transmitted to managers back in the office allows them to supervise every area of the site 24/7. This allows them to monitor performance and efficiency of the workers and the equipment on a constant and repetitive basis in order to make sure that the work is progressing as planned and whether or not all instructions and guidelines are being followed as specified.
Another advantage of using the HoistCam™ Director Remote Enterprise Software is that it grants flexibility to the managerial staff to conduct office work without needing to be present or physically visit the site, saving valuable time which can be dedicated to other tasks.
- Timely and Informed Decision Making
The visual information available minimizes the need to contact on-site workers for determining progress and for planning purposes. Instructions and adjustments can be communicated without needing to confirmation from on-ground staff beforehand. Incidents, problems with machinery and equipment, and discrepancies can be replayed and addressed in a timely and efficient manner in this way. Worker safety can also be increased by highlighting potential accidents which could occur due to equipment failure and human error.
- In-depth Progress Report and Reporting
The data, in the form of photo and video, can be used to plan future work and to formulate progress reports on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. The HoistCam™ Director Site Tracker Service, which comes with the software, allows in-depth evaluation of all projects by providing a 3D video rendering feature, including Digital Surface Maps (DSM), 3D Point Clouds, and Orthomosaics, to generate accurate models of the current progress.
Reports and models generated can also be shared with other members within the organization for planning and evaluation purposes. Furthermore, it can also help identify choke points and inefficiencies to eliminate them for more efficient and timely work performance.
