What Makes Sheltera the Smartest?
Dramatic Risk Reduction
You know that 90% of power outages are caused by downed trees. Sheltera enhances Grid Hardening and Utility Vegetation Management by minimizing tree-related risks to your infrastructure. A superior focus on where and when to trim trees makes a huge difference in customer service.
Enhanced Safety for Your Crew
Your people risk their lives enough as it is. We can help you cut down on extreme-weather service calls. Our Integrated Vegetation Management approach ensures safer conditions for your team while keeping operations running smoothly during storms.
Over 95% Accuracy
Our artificial intelligence/machine learning integrates satellite imagery together with LiDAR and customization, reducing false alarms to near-zero. On average, 19 of 20 issues we flag are confirmed on the ground. This precision is critical for storm hardening and maintaining reliable operations.
Ten Times as Fast
Our proprietary artificial intelligence/machine learning model quickly sifts through your service territory, enabling us to focus on the most important areas of interest. So we can report in days or weeks where others require months. And we can refresh the survey territory-wide at your request. By streamlining vegetation control services, Sheltera helps utilities and railways maintain operational efficiency with unprecedented speed.
74% Cost Reduction
We’ve put smart vegetation management within the reach of every utility, including municipalities and small rural cooperatives. Our cost-effective solutions are ideal for consulting forestry and are tailored to meet the needs of diverse organizations.
Customized to Your Specific Needs
No two utilities are alike in their approach to threat assessment, tree preservation, and access to private property. Our extraordinary 95% accuracy is due in part to fine-tuning the threat criteria to precisely match your needs.
Smarter Resource Management
No more time wasted driving slowly through your service area, looking for threats. Artificial intelligence finds threats for you. Our AI pinpoints risks, enabling you to manage resources more effectively. Integrated Vegetation Control Services ensure your team spends less time searching and more time-solving.
Auto Line Location Corrector
We can improve line location accuracy by 50% over previous GIS records. Enhanced GIS accuracy supports grid hardening and ensures efficient operations in both urban and rural areas.
Smarter Situational Awareness
Part of our management dashboard, our Heat Map of problem tree clusters gives your decision-makers a vivid picture of where the biggest dangers are. This level of clarity supports proactive storm hardening and wildfire mitigation efforts.
Smarter Tree Trimming
Our Threat Code system focuses your efforts. Code 5 identifies the immediate concerns, responsible for 70 to 80% of tree-related power outages. Code 4 identifies issues to address within months. Efficient trimming strategies support integrated vegetation management efforts and reduce overall risk.
Smarter Tree Crew Dispatch
Even before a truck rolls, we give you the location of a problem cluster and a Street View image of the issue. So you can dispatch crews with exactly the right equipment, saving time and boosting efficiency in vegetation control services.
Smarter Field Work
Our mobile app enables tree crews to head for exactly the right spot via GPS, then estimate, bid, execute, document, and report. This functionality supports operations across forestry, utilities, and railways.
Wildfire and Tropical Storm Liability Mitigation and Local Code Compliance
The app provides time-stamped photos and documentation that can serve as useful evidence. Ensure compliance while mitigating risks related to wildfires and storms with Sheltera’s integrated solutions.
