Measure sediment. Prioritize cleaning. Document the decision.
SumpScout helps municipal crews measure sediment depth in drainage structures, photograph the reading, and document cleaning decisions against their maintenance standards. Supervisors review inspections in one dashboard and export records to support MS4 reporting.
Accounts are created by invitation during the pilot. Field workflow
- 01
Measure sediment depth
Crews measure sediment depth with a probe rig. Where a valid sump depth is available, SumpScout calculates percent full and compares it with the municipality’s configured sediment cleaning threshold. Unreadable measurements are recorded as undetermined. Missing sump depth leaves percent full undetermined.
- 02
Photograph the measurement
Capture a 360 interior photo or an exterior photo as evidence. The photo stays with the inspection so supervisors can check the record behind the recommendation.
- 03
Prioritize inspections that recommend cleaning
Each inspection is screened against the organization’s cleaning threshold and marked as recommended for cleaning, below threshold, or undetermined. Supervisors review the measurement and photo, can record their own decision beside that result, and use the list to prioritize crews.
- 04
Export inspection records
Export inspection records with measurements, photos, screening results, reviewer decisions, and the applicable threshold to support annual reporting and program reviews.
A record behind every cleaning recommendation
Each inspection brings together the measured sediment depth, the photo of the probe rig when available, and the screening result. It keeps the cleaning threshold that was in force when the reading was taken, and a later change to that setting does not alter the inspection. Supervisors can see why an inspection recommended cleaning or fell below threshold against the municipality's maintenance standards, and record their own decision alongside it.
