Harsh environments such as refineries, off-shore facilities and chemical plants, require taking special measures to ensure personnel safety. Providing full visibility to people's whereabouts in case of an emergency is extremely crucial to a safe evacuation. Mobile equipment visibility across the enterprise drives operations efficiency and prevents equipment misplacement and loss. The AeroScout solution also offers automated monitoring of telemetry conditions such as temperature, pressure and humidity of remote assets and vessels. AeroScout's tags and equipment are also available in an Intrinsically Safe form factor for explosion-sensitive environments.

AeroScout's visibility solutions leverage standard Wi-Fi wireless networks to deliver direct benefits to oil and gas facilities. Customers can improve personnel safety, increase operations efficiency and overall profitability.

People Safety

AeroScout’s T2 Intrinsically safe tags are carried by personnel and visitors and provide a variety of applications that increase safety:

• Panic button – A person can click the tag’s panic button when he requires immediate help or in emergency case
• Man down – when a person is not in motion for a certain amount of time or exposed to a certian level of gas, the tag will send an immediate alert
• Mustering – In case of emergency evacuation, personnel are mustered at specific gathering points, their presence is automatically confirmed and recorded; search and rescue crews can also view the location of missing people and they can be tracked in real-time while in search.
• Security and access control – AeroScout Exciters installed at doorways and bridges provide instant and accurate alerts upon tagged personnel moving from one area to the other or entering restricted areas.

Equipment Visibility

AeroScout provides complete visibility over equipment, machinery, vehicle fleet and critical assets. The solution allows users to quickly search for an asset and view its real time location displayed on a map. Location and status information is populated to enterprise applications (e.g. ERP) and meaningful business events (such as asset shortage or operational status) through standard API’s. The solution prevents loss of equipment and dramatically increases labor productivity.

Telemetry and Sensors

AeroScout tags feature temperature, humidity and motion sensors and can link to a broad range of additional sensor and telemetry data sources. This enables the tags to wirelessly transmit valuable data, and automatically trigger alerts or actions based on reaching a threshold. For example, monitoring exposure level to gases or monitoring the temperature of sensitive items.
