Sewer inspection: covering more, guessing less

Sewer CCTV inspection budgets are finite, but many utilities still schedule crews by age, material, or simple geography, rather than by where defects are actually likely.

The result: healthy pipes may get inspected while deteriorating segments wait years for a look, and the gap only widens as networks age and budgets tighten. Baseform grades pipes automatically from defects already logged during CCTV inspections, applying PACP, RERAU, European, or custom frameworks, then uses AI to predict the condition of segments that haven't been inspected at all — extending coverage well beyond what crews can physically reach. Prioritization built into the platform has improved coverage efficiency by up to 5x in practice, and critical defects flow directly into renewal planning, without a separate step.
