For infrastructure owners, operators, and engineers

Screen the whole network. Inspect where it moves.

You are responsible for every kilometre; you can physically inspect only a fraction of them. Satellite radar treats the entire network consistently, reaches years into the past, and shows which sections justify engineering attention.

Asset types

Applications across the built network

  • Roads
  • Railways
  • Bridges and approaches
  • Pipelines
  • Water networks
  • Dams and reservoirs
  • Industrial facilities
  • Ports
  • Airports
  • Utilities
  • Construction corridors
  • Mining and extraction areas

How it helps

From network-wide screening to focused inspection

The workflow is designed around one economic fact: engineering time is scarce and expensive, and most of the network is not moving.

  1. Define the network

    Alignments, buffer widths, and priority structures — from GIS files or simple route descriptions.

  2. Process the archive

    Multi-temporal InSAR over the corridor: typically 100+ acquisitions spanning several years, in one consistent analysis.

  3. Rank and report

    Per-segment movement statistics, ranked sections, time series for flagged locations, and GIS deliverables for your systems.

Flagged segments come with their history attached: when movement began, whether it is steady, seasonal, or accelerating, and how it compares with adjacent stable sections. That context is what turns a flag into an inspection decision.

Repeated on a schedule, the same processing becomes a monitoring baseline — each new acquisition extends the series, and defined thresholds trigger closer review.

Precision, honestly stated

What accuracy you can expect

Millimetre-level precision is achievable under favourable conditions — and wrong to promise universally. Achievable precision at your asset depends on:

  • Data availability over the asset and period of interest
  • Surface characteristics (structures and hard surfaces measure well; vegetation poorly)
  • Atmospheric conditions across the image archive
  • Viewing geometry relative to the movement direction
  • Processing method and parameter choices
  • Temporal coverage and acquisition continuity
  • Availability of validation data (levelling, GNSS, track geometry)

Every corridor assessment starts with a data availability review that states expected measurement density and precision for your specific network — before you commit to the full analysis. Where satellite measurement is genuinely unsuitable, we say so and suggest alternatives.

Screen one corridor first

A pilot on a single route or facility establishes measurement density, data quality, and usefulness for your network — typically the fastest way to evaluate the approach.
