  • AI Transmission/Substation Inspections w/Drone, ArcGIS and Imagery Mngt Platform
    Inspecting transmission and substations once meant manual review and disconnected data. Modern challenges like Data Centers, reliability, risk and security now demand DroneDocks, AI, image management and GIS. Dominion Energy is analyzing images and thermal data w/Buzz Solutions' AI to detect defects on insulators, corrosion, and overheating components. Atomic Maps then unifies images, inference, and assets and publishes it as ArcGIS feature layers. In Atomic Lens, crews search inspections by location, defect, or asset turning inspection backlogs into prioritized, mappable, actionable work.

  • How a Small Utility Built a Bot that Answers a Myriad of Questions in Seconds
    Covington Water District built an in-house AI assistant that connects GIS, billing, assessor, and policy data through a single plain-language interface. Staff, managers, and field crews can ask complex questions and receive source-cited answers in seconds, often combining data from multiple systems in one response. Built entirely by District staff, the read-only solution runs on existing infrastructure and has reduced routine information lookup times from minutes or hours to under 10 seconds, improving customer service, operational efficiency, and decision-making.
