This solution can solve problems associated with the lengthy and error prone practice of manually logging asset information by providing a straightforward connection to the data storage location.
- this solution provides for upgrades and RFID programming.
- a device 110 such as a conventional mobile phone or tablet, can have an application installed.
- the device 110 can include at least one processor, memory, a communications device, and a graphical user interface.
- the application will provide for user inputs for asset information 120 , such as the identity of the contractor/installer, the utility owner or other company information, images, notes, or references about the installation location and asset (e.g., such as temperature, weather or site conditions during the asset installation), and the GPS/NMEA location coordinates.
- the application allows the device 110 to record or capture an image or scan a tag, such as barcode 150 . This tag/barcode 150 is linked to basic product information 122 .
- the asset information can be stored on the device and/or communicated to data storage location, such as a cloud service 130 , which can access a product database 140 .
- a locator 115 can be provided to locate and/or communicate with RFID tags or marker products 155 .
- An example locator can be a 2200 series, 2500 series, or 7000 series Dynatel Locator (available from 3M Company) and example marker products include 1420 series Dynatel ball markers (available from 3M Company).
- the information about the RFID products can be communicated to device 110 via Bluetooth, Wifi, NFC, or wired communication 134 .
- the application will also provide for a web administration portal for asset logging data and contractor/installer login access.
- the application can provide for the logging and storage of an asset path or pathway.
- locator 115 can locate a series of tags disposed on near an asset such as a pipe buried underground.
- a technician or installer can capture GPS coordinates (in some cases, in addition to other data) along the length of the pipe.
- These continuous coordinates can be communicated to the application and can be stored on the device 110 or loaded on the cloud 130 .
- a technician or installer can log the tag for a cable accessory, such as a splice or termination, then walk along the path of the electrical leg or branch, back to, e.g., a junction or termination location. With each continuous GPS location stored, the continuous coordinates can be uploaded to the cloud through the application, thus providing a form of asset mapping for the user/asset owner.
- This application can also provide a service contractor to access important information about a particular asset for inspection, repair and updating services. Upon being granted access by a utility owner, the service contractor can go to a location and pull up all necessary asset information based on the location and asset information provided previously by the installer. Thus, this level of detail can help expedite repair and maintenance work.
- the application allows a user to save GPS location information using GIS.
- the application can provide options for using internal or interfacing with external GPS devices.
- the application can provide for barcode scanning and decoding by the device.
- the application can provide for OS support for both android and iOS-based devices.

- the application can provide for RFID programming.
- the application can provide customizable templates for product and user applications.
- downloadable application features include providing a custom instruction sheet for a particular product or kit that is linked to the tag/barcode captured. These instructions may be broken down into small parts with short videos and pictures that are accessible within the application. Capturing the tag/barcode will list the components possibly with a picture of all for a visual check—or it may prompt a checklist the installer can use to validate that all components are included. If a kit is being installed at a particular utility location, each component can be provided on the user interface, whereby the component can be selected for a description of its function and configuration.
- capturing the tag and then entering the cable type will check the compatibility of that kit with that cable (e.g., what are the proper lugs for that conductor, are the lugs the proper size, what is the proper grounding to be used, etc.).
- the application can help an installer make sure that all proper parts are provided or determine if additional parts are needed for a particular installation.
- an installer can take pictures that can be reviewed by a supervisor or the utility owner to verify proper installation for training. The installer can be prompted to take a picture at critical stages of installation and used to get feedback.
- an image of an asset can be captured by device 110 and can be stored on the device and/or uploaded through cloud services 130 .
- Services can be provided to the asset owner or user to have the image analyzed by a subject matter expert or by an image analysis tool (which can be stored on the device) for immediate feedback as to the quality of the asset installation.
- the expert or virtual analysis tool can provide such feedback and indicate if additional installation efforts or additional parts are needed to complete the installation.
- Such feedback can be related to cable cutbacks (e.g., for cable conductor, insulation, semiconductor layer lengths), crimp depth, crimp number, lug attachment, or other features.
- the image of an asset captured by device 110 and stored on the device and/or uploaded through cloud services 130 can be used in a post installation evaluation process, for example to analyze such images over time or against later developing grid events.
- FIG. 2 shows a partial view of a system 100 when utilizing an external scanning device 118 to capture (scan) the tag (barcode, not shown) of the installed asset (e.g., cable accessory 105 ).
