Increase condition assessment platform’s automation capacity from 50% to 90%+ using deep learning models, single cloud architecture, and demonstration sites.
FY 2024-25 · 2025-03-04
Summary
Niricson is developing a proprietary cloud-based damage assessment platform-AUTOSPEX to help asset owners inspect and manage their assets (Dams, Bridges, Nuclear Power Plants etc.) faster, cost-effectively, accurately, and safely.
With the proposed project, Niricson plans to automate the big data processing from 50% to over 90%. This will allow more asset owners to collect and process their assets data frequently allowing building predictive maintenance models, extending the service life of their assets, and hence, reducing the CO2 emissions significantly.

Coverage
NRC-IRAP Clean Technology projects stimulate wealth creation for Canada through sustainable development technological innovation, while improving Canada’s environmental indicators related to greenhouse gas emissions (GCG), waste management, air quality or drinking water based on the types of sustainable development technologies that will be supported.│Les projets de technologies propres du PARI-CNRC stimulent la création de richesse pour le Canada grâce à l’innovation technologique en matière de développement durable, tout en améliorant les indicateurs environnementaux du Canada liés aux émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES), à la gestion des déchets, à la qualité de l’air ou à l’eau potable en fonction des types de technologies de développement durable qui seront soutenues.

Description (French)
Niricson développe une plateforme propriétaire d'évaluation des dommages basée sur le nuage -AUTOSPEX - pour aider les propriétaires d'actifs à inspecter et à gérer leurs actifs (barrages, ponts, centrales nucléaires, etc.) de manière plus rapide, plus rentable, plus précise et plus sûre.
Dans le cadre du projet, Niricson prévoit d'automatiser le traitement des mégadonnées (big data) de 50 % à plus de 90 %. Cela permettra à un plus grand nombre de propriétaires d'actifs de collecter et de traiter fréquemment les données relatives à leurs actifs, ce qui permettra d'élaborer des modèles d'entretien prédictif, d'allonger la durée de vie de leurs actifs et, par conséquent, de réduire considérablement les émissions de CO2.
Expected Results
The NRC-IRAP Clean Technology Program will support Canadian SMEs in the research and development of sustainable development technologies, up to their commercialization, with the potential to deliver economic and environmental outcomes.
Expected Results (French)
Le Programme Technologies propres du PARI-CNRC appuiera les PME canadiennes dans la recherche et le développement de technologies du développement durable, jusqu’à leur commercialisation, susceptibles de produire des résultats économiques et environnementaux.
