DENVER —  Cyberhawk™, a global leader in drone-based inspection and survey services and visual data management software, announces a strategic enhancement to its flagship iHawk™ enterprise SaaS visual data management platform: Visualive™. This latest version of iHawk’s image inspection module delivers new capabilities and leverages AI to enable the instant analysis of drone-captured asset data, significantly streamlining the inspection process.

The new software release of Visualive allows operators in the utility, oil and gas, and capital project (large construction projects) sectors to enhance overall inspection outcomes, lower asset management costs, and improve performance. iHawk Visualive will be demonstrated during the Atlanta T&D World Live conference, October 1-3, 2024.

“We’re excited about the release of iHawk Visualive, which will bring cutting-edge enhancements to revolutionize asset inspections across key industries. With AI capabilities and user-friendly tools, Visualive streamlines the inspection process, enabling users to make informed decisions more quickly, ultimately lowering costs and maximizing asset value. Our dedication to innovation continues as we support over 5,000 iHawk users worldwide in enhancing their asset management experience,” noted Matt Zafuto, Chief Commercial Officer for Cyberhawk.

Visualive delivers industry-leading data analysis and visualization, such as multi-view inspection image comparison, enhanced annotation tools, and customizable workflows. Building on the foundation of previous versions of iHawk, users can streamline their inspection processes, make informed decisions quickly, and simplify surveyed asset management more effectively throughout their organizations.

“The feature-rich functionality of Visualive significantly enhances our platform’s capabilities. By continuing to focus on addressing the challenges specific to the drone to decision process and leveraging AI-driven analysis, we improve the accuracy and efficiency of asset inspections. This technology reduces data interpretation time and enables precise decision-making, ensuring our users can effectively manage their assets and drive operational excellence across departments,” said Jay Jenkins, Vice President of Solutions Management for Cyberhawk.

Key advantages of Visualive include:

AI Integration:

• Users can now run image uploads through AI models enabling instant identification and visualization of components and issues – streamlining the inspection process.
• AI predictions can be transformed into actionable insights by creating annotations directly from the AI output, significantly enhancing decision-making capabilities.
• Visualive’s open model interface supports integration with existing in-house or 3^rd party AI models, so existing investments and know-how are preserved.

Enhanced Inspection Process:

• Multi-View Inspection: Use multiple image comparison views (e.g., side-by-side, four-image grid) to evaluate conditions and discrepancies effectively.
• User-Friendly Annotations: Highlight concerns using a range of annotation tools, add grades for context, and facilitate collaborative commenting at both the annotation and inspection levels.
• Video Inspections: New video functionality will allow users to play, pause, and annotate videos, enhancing the depth of inspection analysis.

Campaign Management:

• The new version of Visualive introduces Campaigns to better manage UAS inspection programs, improve status visibility, and track progress against targets.

Comprehensive Asset and Data Management:

• Map Visualizations and Asset Grouping: Multiple asset hierarchies and groups can be easily organized and displayed for even easier navigation than before.

New Productivity Tools and Enhanced Administration:

• Communication: Improve collaboration with commenting and conversations on campaigns, inspections, and annotations.
• Custom Workflows: Utilize a visual workflow builder to tailor workflows based on inspection types, increasing flexibility and accuracy of information.
• Bulk Importing and Data Uploading: Streamline data management by importing in bulk as a background task, ensuring minimal disruption to workflow.
• Enhanced User Roles and Permissions: The new roles and permissions builder provides greater flexibility and visibility, ensuring that users with varying responsibilities across departments can work effectively while maintaining security and control over sensitive data.
