C.A.T Manager vs StormChain

C.A.T Manager Online for iOS links your gC.A.T4 to the Radiodetection C.A.T Manager online secure cloud. Recording what users actually do with Cable Avoidance Tools is a vital component of a quality management approach to prevent damage and harm related to excavation of buried cables and pipes. To facilitate this, Radiodetection’s gC.A.T4 records key parameters every second, and stores them in non-volatile memory. The data collected can be subsequently analysed using our PC application. For customers with a fleet of CATs the problem has been to manage and analyse the data from all these devices quickly, simply and accurately. This problem is solved with the release of the new C.A.T Manager Online service from Radiodetection. Use this iOS app to automatically transfer data from gC.A.T4s to the Radiodetection secure cloud. See data from all your CATs in near real-time, and ensure that all your operators are using their gC.A.Ts correctly. Use of the C.A.T Manager Online service requires agreement to a set of terms and conditions. Radiodetection makes no warranties of any kind, written or oral, statutory, express or implied, with respect to this app, including, any implied warranties or merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose other than as set out in the C.A.T Manager Online terms and conditions. This app is designed for use by businesses that have professional, trained, operators for their Radiodetection gC.A.T4 devices. Older gC.A.T4 devices may require a firmware update to function with this app. * iOS compatibility is only for gC.A.T4 produced from August 2016. Check the label above the battery compartment to verify if your locator is compatible

Stormchain is specifically designed to meet the needs of highway operators, to rapidly understand the impact of incidents and emergencies on their networks. Stormchain™ provides: 20 x questions (mix of mandatory & detailed) and 4 x images for every asset Create incidents by authority area for (e.g.) countywide extreme weather, or freehand for site-specific incidents such as road traffic collisions Pre-designate and assign RIAs (e.g., key assets in flood hot spots) and/or receive ‘Found in Field’ assessments directly from deployed teams Interoperability: provides unparalleled shared situational awareness Dynamic refresh: “When I know, you know” map & app up-dating Batch reports and/or WFS data sharing with partners* of associated damage to (e.g.) road-aligned pipes or cables. Build ‘SitRep’ summaries at scale – Local, Regional, National The Stormchain Impact Matrix supports dynamic, risk-based and defensible decision making to prioritise ‘lifeline’ asset stabilisation and recovery. Create ‘One Truth’ record of event impacts as a foundation for a risk-based recovery programme (e.g., Recovery grant applications) How to procure and start using Stormchain The Stormchain App is available for download by registered users only. For a demonstration of the app and system functions go to: www.stormchain.org Contact us to discuss how you might become a system user: info@stormchain.org More information Whether caused by a natural hazard (e.g., floods, storms, wildfire, drought), a major accident, or a malicious act, Stormchain provides a new level of the situational awareness that is so vital for understanding an event’s implications for network management. In Stormchain, Impact = Damage x Consequences This means that Stormchain directly informs, not just the nature of asset damage, but also accounts for the consequences of that damaged asset on the affected community. This means that Stormchain directly supports risk-based asset management and risk-based recovery approaches. To do this, Stormchain creates and supports a ‘one truth’ dataset, which allows you to effectively initiate and monitor the stabilisation and restoration of assets following damage, from the initial RIA to the final repair. Stormchain supports the easy auditing of event-related data to inform response and recovery grant applications. Stormchain’s embedded technology means that it can offer unparalleled interoperability and “when I know, you know” situational awareness during emergencies for both highway operators and their partner agencies. Stormchain’s formatted Situation Reports provide time-stamped information directly to defined audiences, including the potential to report directly to Ministerial level. Stormchain provides the platform for delivering consistent highway impacts reporting from local to national scales. Stormchain provides responders with unparalleled situational awareness of highway impacts.
