Case Study: Kingborough Council optimises stormwater asset inspections with VAPAR

Kingborough Council inspects 140+ stormwater assets with VAPAR

Kingborough Council, a local government in Tasmania, faced the challenge of rapidly assessing the condition of its stormwater infrastructure to support major new developments like an AFL High Performance Centre. Traditional inspection methods made it difficult to triage repairs and align asset data with construction timelines, posing a risk to project delivery. They used the VAPAR AI-powered cloud platform to automate condition assessments from pipe CCTV footage.

Using the VAPAR platform, the council inspected over 140 stormwater assets. The solution enabled engineers to review automated condition ratings, prioritize repairs based on AI-generated flags, and track workflow statuses. The results included over 4,500 asset features reported, with all processed assets guiding renewal priorities. This allowed the council to review over 3km of pipework in under four months and directly link repair insights to infrastructure project planning.
