Yes. Pallon covers mainline pipes and manholes from 100 to 2000 mm across concrete, vitrified clay, plastic, brick and lined pipes, in circular, egg-shaped and rectangular profiles. With 250+ customers and thousands of kilometers analysed, the AI handles the mixed and ageing stock found in most municipal networks – not just textbook conditions.

Yes, we tend to detect more defects than an average human expert. The additionally reported defects are mainly minor defects, which can be important for deterioration modeling and remediation planning, but are less significant for condition assessment. Therefore, the condition rating does not change significantly on average, since the rating depends primarily on the most serious defects, which were hopefully already reported in the past by human experts. Upon request, we offer the option to filter out minor defects that should not be taken into account in the condition assessment.

Yes. Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, hosted in certified data centers, and never shared with third parties. Access is strictly controlled and you always remain the owner of your inspection data.

Pallon exports the standard interchange formats – ISYBAU-XML and VSA-KEK – so condition data flows straight into your GIS or asset management system and stays attached to the right pipe segment. Bidirectional integrations exist with GIS systems used across Switzerland and Germany; further integrations are built on request. Please check in advance whether the supported exchange files are compatible with your GIS.
