1 Intelligent Assets RAMG Toowoomba - 29 October 2015 John Hunter - Brisbane City Council

2 Thoughts Think outside the box. But what if there is no box? Why only reach for the sky? Man landed on the moon in 1969.

3 What is an Intelligent Asset? Self - aware. Goal-directed behaviour. Autonomous. Self-powering.

4 Sensors that measure, report and correct Tilting Acceleration Cracking Braking Vibration Temperature Acoustics Energy Consumption

5 Sensors Wired Optical remote Wireless Challenges of keeping the sensors powered.

6 Rail, flooding, bridges

7 Minneapolis I-35 Bridge collapse 01 August 2007 Killed 13 people, injured ,000 vehicles daily During the next 5 years, there was a big increase in bridge sensors. Technical advances in wireless sensors make real-time monitoring both affordable and practical.

8 Smart, Connected Products Automation (60s & 70s) Individual activities e.g. Order processing, bill payments, CAD, MRP Internet (80s & 90s) Coordination/integration of suppliers, customer, channels, geography Merging of IT & OT Embedded sensors, processors, software, connectivity

9 Operational and Information Technology Operational Technology Often front-end field-based devices, Vendor specific and operating in real time: SCADA Remote Terminal Units Meters Sensors Information Technology Hardware, software and telecommunication devices used for activities such as: Billing Revenue Collection Accounting Asset Registers Maintain Customer info. Dashboards

10 Operational and Information Technology Operational Technology ABB Emerson GE Rockwell Siemens Schneider Information Technology IBM Microsoft Oracle SAP NetSuite, Plexus etc.

11 Internet of Things Approx. 50M devices will be connected to the internet by 2020 (Gartner). It is the network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and connectivity to enable objects to collect and exchange data.

12 Continuous Inspection using IA - advantages Continuous, not intermittent. Pinpoints causals. Condition is always known. Asset availability.

13 BIM (Tara Liverton and Guido Zundel) Likened to a spatial fly-through of an Open House. WOL approach for building construction. Flows through concepts, design, procurement, construction, O&M. Operating initially in virtual mode helps to identify improvements rather than trying to correct irreversible processes in real life. Can lead to quantum efficiencies and financial benefits. All stakeholders can benefit - Asset Owners, Deliverers, Architects etc. BIMS can provide the documentation. Integrates seamlessly the building, electrical and plumbing activities.

14 BIM (Building Information Modelling)

15 Ability to Influence Plumbing, building, electrical Security, monitoring, cleaning, maintenance

16 Using Intelligence to Build Infrastructure - Greg Stephenson BCC s manual pavement inspection treats causes, not symptoms. Manual inspections provide a good platform for future automated inspections. Various technologies available measuring temperature, compaction. e.g. Technology on new rollers can facilitate intelligent compaction. Good technology is no substitute for good paving practices.

17 Technology Traffic Info ⁰C - Calorimeter Intelligence Performance

18 Pavement Construction - Workmanship There is no substitute for Good Paving Practice Good Paving Practice Technology Decent paving + = Fair paving + = + = Great paving!

19 The Digital City - Kim Geedrick A business driver for measurement is continuous improvement. LiDAR (Light detection and ranging). LiDAR is increasingly being used to record infrastructure. Trials have been held in Brisbane city (175 kilometres of roads). (To include line-marking, roadside furniture, clearance heights). Early stages. Task to turn data into info for decision making. Select the fly through - George St

20 Energy and Waste Management - Kirk Lawrence After handover, technology focuses on operational improvements. Buildings - chillers, pumps, cooling towers, lifts, escalators, exhaust fans, air conditioning, lighting, car parks, water & gas (pulse meters). Diagnostic checking rather than waiting for an issue. Benefits are annual reduction of operational costs and an increase in remaining useful lives through extended asset lives.

22 A Strategic Business Case for IA - Shawn Day Cities are economic engines. Brisbane Floods. Smart technology should increase productivity. Size, density could increase costs and congestion Smart technology is one tool we can implement. Improvements lighting (networking), traffic signal coordination, waste management (sensors), parking & loading spaces (sensors), public safety (CCTV).

23 Pedestrian movement Traffic movement Kerbside demand Issue Application/Technology Benefit Sensors/counters - data/information for public realm planning, design, operations Road embedded sensors and software systems - adjust signal timing Road-side sensors - real time monitoring of parking, loading zone utilisation Optimise operational and capital spend Optimise traffic flows, reduce congestion Optimise the use of parking and loading spaces Public transport systems Real time data on bus, ferry, train services Optimise commute times Cleansing and maintenance Public real time reporting on state of assets Waste management Sensors in bins to indicate capacity - especially in high waste areas Lighting Networking street lights and switching to LEDs - improve system reliability, increase energy efficiency Speeds up the reporting and resolution of asset issues Optimise waste collection just in time Lower operational costs, extend equipment lifespans New markets Pedestrian analytics - data/information Potential commercial/revenue opportunities Information Digital signage - information on events, offers, public notification Real time updates, operational savings, avoided spend Communication/ Public Wi-Fi - access to the internet Out of office workers, visitor information, social media Public safety CCTV - proactive intervention Crime minimisation, prevention Customer services Customer service point - access council service Real time service requests, more efficient response

24 RFIDs in Libraries Radio Frequency Identification (radio waves). Used for Library book check-in and check-out. A journey via a pilot and Customer engagement. Advantages: o Improved Customer self-service. o Improved management of 1.3M collection. o WH&S - fewer touches. o Improved security. o Affordable.

25 The equipment

26 Automated vehicles - Edward Chung Two Rio Tinto mines with driverless dump trucks. Moving towards trains for next year. Vehicle 2 Vehicle and Vehicle 2 Infrastructure technology. Overtaking, merging, weaving, collision avoidance. Different levels of automation.
