Tunnelling Operational
Intelligence

Creating Operational Visibility Across Complex Infrastructure Projects

Major tunnelling projects are among the most complex operational environments in the world.

The challenge is maintaining a shared operational understanding across the project

iottag helps tunnelling organisations improve visibility, coordination and operational awareness through Operational Intelligence.

Understanding The Entire Project Environment

Tunnelling projects involve hundreds of personnel, vehicles, equipment and operational activities occurring simultaneously.

The Operational Digital Twin creates a live operational representation of the project environment, helping teams understand:

checkWho is on site

checkHow conditions are changing

checkWhere activity is occurring

checkWhere attention may be required

Supporting Workforce Safety

Workforce visibility is critical within underground environments.
The platform supports:

Personnel Accountability

Emergency Response

Evacuation Management

Environmental Awareness

Vehicle Interactions

Restricted Area Controls

Fatal Risk Intelligence

By providing a shared operational understanding, organisations can improve situational awareness and support safer operations.

Supporting Project Delivery

Beyond safety, tunnelling projects require efficient coordination across multiple work fronts.

The platform helps organisations understand:

Workforce deployment
Vehicle activity
Operational constraints
Equipment utilisation
Project progress
Emerging risks

Supporting more informed operational decision-making throughout project delivery.

Visibility For All Project Stakeholders

Government owners require confidence that projects are being delivered safely and effectively.
Operational Analytics & Benchmarking helps provide a consistent operational picture across every level of the project hierarchy.
