Protect your network.
From space to the ground.

Five integrated solutions on one Esri ArcGIS platform. We find the leaks you cannot see, stop the structures you cannot afford, map the utilities no one has records of, track every fault and fix what we find.

Five offerings. One platform.

Each offering stands on its own, and together they form a closed loop from detection to measured repair.

uMngeni-uThukela Water DRES

The Disaster Risk Encroachment Solution (DRES) is an end-to-end solution for combating servitude encroachment on uMngeni-uThukela Water infrastructure. Built on Esri ArcGIS, it monitors hundreds of kilometres of high-pressure pipeline servitudes so new structures are found early, before they restrict access, damage pipes or endanger communities.

Chatsworth floods, April 2022

SkySat imagery captured on 28 March and 15 April 2022 shows how the April 2022 KwaZulu-Natal floods changed the Mlazi River in Chatsworth. The river burst its banks and stripped vegetation along the floodplain, beside homes and roads.

Before-and-after imagery like this lets municipalities and utilities assess damage quickly, prioritise inspections and plan recovery, without waiting for ground surveys.
