BridgeWatch®
BridgeWatch® is available across PCs and mobile devices, providing real-time access to your data 24/7. User displays can be based on maps, plans, drawings, sketches, photographs, and 2D or 3D graphics. The specific web pages for your system can be configured to your unique requirements.
Our BridgeWatch® software features an incredibly user-friendly interface, allowing you to quickly click between different displays, admin functions, monitoring and analysis data.
You can narrow your data down by structural zones, sensors and events. BridgeWatch® notifies you with relevant updates and information; you can track your current notifications on a dedicated display screen.
BridgeWatch® also allows you to flag incoming data in order to log any abnormal events, for a selected period. You can then
view all such data in the Analysis Report section, enabling you to select and generate custom reports.
Intuitive data graphs facilitate a more pictorial representation of your structural monitoring data, meaning you can gain a quick overview from a period of your choosing.
Many of Strainstall’s past and current projects benefit from our innovative BridgeWatch® monitoring software, which provides the ultimate solution for convenient and reliable management and presentation of your structural monitoring data and information.
