Safety cameras , and mobile digital video recorders ( MDVRs ) are now able to be connected 24 / 7 , allowing video footage to be available to managers for increased visibility and monitoring . For example , Visiontrack ’ s NARA ( Notification , Analysis and Risk Assessment ), uses deep learning algorithms to process driving footage produced by construction operators to remove false positives with precision in seconds so action can be taken immediately .
Context is key
Driver behavior and how they treat and use equipment is a big debate in the telematics industry . This has previously been hard to analyze with traditional telematics due to a lack of data . However , the collaboration of recordings and telematic data can now give context to these incidents , giving managers a better understanding of driver behavior , such as driving styles , allowing them to learn and prevent them from happening again .
Monitoring can safeguard your business and employees
All angles of a plant can be recorded through combining video telematics with event tracking . This is crucial for businesses in the event of an accident or claim especially considering slips , trips , and falls ( STFs ) from cabs are the most common cause of injury in the industry . Video telematics solutions can record the incident allowing managers to view footage to ensure they were following the correct safety procedures before dealing with the claim . Thus , improving driver wellbeing , reducing absenteeism , and protecting business against injury claims .
Meet safety regulations now for a safer future
To detect and remove risk , the Occupational Safety and Health Administration guidelines recommend proactive actions and risk identification . This can be helped by video telematics through real-time monitoring of risk . A mix of this data and AI can quickly help to mitigate these risks . Cloud platforms such as NARA can improve safety compliance with additional safety features like the occupant safety rating that monitors the wellbeing of the driver and can even automatically alert emergency services of distress or injury following a collision – providing life-saving minutes to vehicle operators and helping businesses meet construction industry safety regulations .
Improve construction site safety with video and telematics data collaboration
Preventable non-fatal workplace injuries account for $ 11.3 billion annually in the US . The combination of real-time video and telematics in AI-powered video telematics can help prevent some of these incidents . Providing construction managers with a 360 ° view of ground activity and providing them with actionable digital data , helps to continuously improve safety procedures . ■
