StormChain app for iPhone and iPad

Stormchain is specifically designed to meet the needs of highway operators, to rapidly understand the impact of incidents and emergencies on their networks.
Stormchain™ provides:
20 x questions (mix of mandatory & detailed) and 4 x images for every asset
Create incidents by authority area for (e.g.) countywide extreme weather, or freehand for site-specific incidents such as road traffic collisions
Pre-designate and assign RIAs (e.g., key assets in flood hot spots) and/or receive ‘Found in Field’ assessments directly from deployed teams
Interoperability: provides unparalleled shared situational awareness
Dynamic refresh: “When I know, you know” map & app up-dating
Batch reports and/or WFS data sharing with partners* of associated damage to (e.g.) road-aligned pipes or cables.
Build ‘SitRep’ summaries at scale – Local, Regional, National
The Stormchain Impact Matrix supports dynamic, risk-based and defensible decision making to prioritise ‘lifeline’ asset stabilisation and recovery.
Create ‘One Truth’ record of event impacts as a foundation for a risk-based recovery programme (e.g., Recovery grant applications)

More information
Whether caused by a natural hazard (e.g., floods, storms, wildfire, drought), a major accident, or a malicious act, Stormchain provides a new level of the situational awareness that is so vital for understanding an event’s implications for network management.
In Stormchain, Impact = Damage x Consequences
This means that Stormchain directly informs, not just the nature of asset damage, but also accounts for the consequences of that damaged asset on the affected community. This means that Stormchain directly supports risk-based asset management and risk-based recovery approaches.
To do this, Stormchain creates and supports a ‘one truth’ dataset, which allows you to effectively initiate and monitor the stabilisation and restoration of assets following damage, from the initial RIA to the final repair.
Stormchain supports the easy auditing of event-related data to inform response and recovery grant applications.
Stormchain’s embedded technology means that it can offer unparalleled interoperability and “when I know, you know” situational awareness during emergencies for both highway operators and their partner agencies.
Stormchain’s formatted Situation Reports provide time-stamped information directly to defined audiences, including the potential to report directly to Ministerial level.
Stormchain provides the platform for delivering consistent highway impacts reporting from local to national scales. Stormchain provides responders with unparalleled situational awareness of highway impacts.
