SmartAssets: AI-based image inspection and asset inventory for utilities

SmartAssets is an AI-based asset inventory and inspection solution designed for utilities and urban environments. It features a proprietary capture system composed of high-resolution cameras integrated with an advanced georeferencing system, ensuring metric accuracy and full traceability of collected data.

The platform uses AI models to detect and classify network assets, identify public lighting infrastructure, recognize visual defects, and analyze vegetation interference. All data is organized within a structured and auditable platform, providing a complete trail from image capture to inference and validation, enabling continuous updates and seamless integration with GIS systems.

The system is already in use in Europe, conducting inspections of Portugal’s power distribution network, demonstrating its robustness and scalability in large-scale operations.
