One truck, many miles.
A small CCTV team cannot film every pipe every five years if it films the wrong pipes first.
How it works
Follow one pipe from the map to the fix.
The office and the field use the same system and the same data, from the first plan to the funded repair.
In the office · plan
01
Start with the map you already have.
We load your sewer, storm and water assets straight from your ArcGIS services. Every asset keeps your IDs. Then we add free public data about the ground around each pipe: groundwater depth, soil, flood zones and nearby rivers.
- Reads your Esri ArcGIS layers
- Keeps your pipe IDs, object IDs and global IDs
- Public USDA soil, FEMA flood and USGS river data on every pipe
- A missing value shows as unknown. It is never guessed.
See which pipes to inspect first.
Every pipe gets an inspection priority score. It asks two questions. How likely is this pipe to leak or fail? And how bad would it be if it did? The reasons are written on every pipe, in words anyone can read.
- Pipes that were never inspected, or are overdue, rise to the top
- Your team sets the weights and can add its own rules
- Every change is saved as a new version
- The map colours each pipe by its priority
Plan the year in minutes.
Enter your network length and your cycle, for example 155 miles over five years. Inspection OS works out the miles you need each year. It then builds the list, highest priority first, until you reach that target. Approve it, and the work is scheduled to your crews month by month.
- A yearly target from your own numbers
- Skips pipes with open work, and force mains
- See the plan on the map, or export it as PDF or CSV
- Progress shows miles approved against miles planned

04
Send the work to the crew’s phone.
Crews download their jobs. The list, the forms and a map of the area are saved on the phone, so everything works with no signal. Each job shows the pipe, the manholes at each end, its condition and its past inspections.
- An offline map of the work area
- The same forms the office manages, always the current version
- Start a new inspection on any asset, even offline
- Managers dispatch work. Reviewers review. Contractors see only their pipes.
05
Capture the evidence where it happens.
Take photos and short videos, or import the large video file from the CCTV truck. Note a finding at its video time with a PACP code. For smoke tests, mark each spot where smoke came out, with GPS. Tap Finish. It uploads by itself as soon as there is signal.
- Truck video in MP4, MOV, AVI, MPG, WMV and more
- GPS location, notes and PDF documents
- Uploads in parts and picks up where it stopped
- If two people change the same job, both versions are kept

Watch the video in any browser.
The original video is kept untouched, with a digital fingerprint that proves it never changed. A copy plays in any browser, with nothing to install. Bookmarks save a still image and the exact time, so anyone can jump back to it.
- Large files resume after a dropped connection
- Every video is linked to its pipe
- Jump from a finding to its moment in the video
07
Code with PACP. Get the grades worked out.
Reviewers pick codes from the full NASSCO PACP v7 list, so there are no typos. The form asks for what each code needs, like a clock position. The Quick Rating, Pipe Rating and Pipe Ratings Index are worked out live. Nobody types them.
- All 231 PACP v7 codes, and MACP for manholes
- PACP rules are checked when you save
- Grade maths checked against published PACP examples
- Grades turn into Good, Fair, Poor or Critical by rules you set
08
AI suggests. A person decides.
AI is optional. It looks at still images from the video and suggests PACP codes. Each suggestion links to its moment in the video. A reviewer accepts, changes or rejects it, and adds anything it missed. Nothing counts until a person says yes.
- Every suggestion is checked against the real PACP code list
- The AI never guesses a grade
- See the cost before a run. Turn AI on or off yourself.
- We measure accuracy on your own videos in a pilot
09
Approve, and everything updates.
A certified reviewer approves the inspection after watching the full video. The approval is locked and kept in the history. The pipe’s risk score updates on its own. One click turns a finding into a work order, with a link to the exact second of video.
- A PACP report PDF for each pipe
- Work orders are built in. No separate CMMS needed.
- Reopen with a reason. The first approval stays on record.
In the office · decide
Decide what to fix, and fund it.
Risk asks a different question: what should we fix first? It uses the grades from approved inspections. Your engineer chooses repair, rehab or replace. Inspection OS prices it from your unit costs and fits it into a five-year plan that stays inside your budget.
- Risk models you can change, with every number explained
- Compare two budgets side by side
- Approved work stays in its year

Know if you are on track.
The workspace shows what is in draft, what is waiting for review, and how many miles are inspected and approved against the yearly target. A pipe filmed twice counts once. Drafts and test footage do not count. Inflow and infiltration is ranked by basin, with the smoke and CCTV evidence behind each rank.
- Review backlog and AI turnaround times
- A list of the worst pipes
- A weekly PDF by email
- I&I ranked by basin, with the reasons
