How it works

The Smart Roofs Platform collects the readings from S-One deflection sensors and DSW water level sensors on your roofs and analyzes them 24/7. Managing a portfolio of buildings spread across many sites is hard with a small team. The platform takes over the routine part: it watches the key structural readings and tells you when something needs your attention.

From the roof to your site team S-One and DSW sensors send readings through gateways on site to the Smart Roofs Platform, which also takes in weather forecasts. The platform shows maps, charts and history and sends SMS and email alerts. S-One DSW Gateways on site Smart Roofs Platform Weather forecasts Map, charts and history SMS and email alerts
Readings travel from the roof through on-site gateways to the platform, then to your team.

What your site team gets

  • Interactive map

    The current status of every building you manage, on one screen.

  • A dashboard for each building

    A map of its sensors with the latest reading from each one.

  • Charts and history

    How deflection and water levels changed during every snowfall and rainstorm, kept in one place.

  • Imperial units

    Alerts and screens in lb/sq ft and °F.

Alerts reach your team on their phones and in their inbox. History and reports for each building stay on the Smart Roofs Platform.

  • SMS
  • Email
  • App notification

Alerts reach your team wherever they are

Every measuring point has predefined thresholds. When a reading crosses one, the platform sends SMS and email alerts right away, so your team learns about it on their phones, wherever they are.

Weather alerts

Weather alerts are a feature of the Smart Roofs Platform, built for property managers responsible for buildings with flat or low-slope roofs.

  • The platform takes weather forecasts from OpenWeather, which covers locations across the United States.
  • Forecasts for the next 48 hours or 7 days give the daily snowfall and rainfall, the minimum and maximum temperature and the wind speed.
  • It compares each forecast with the design parameters of your building.
  • If it detects a risk, you get an alert in advance, with practical tips on how to protect the roof.
  • Weather alerts also work without any sensors on the roof. To add a building, enter its address and year of construction.
  • It runs 24/7 and notifies you only when it matters.
  • Snowfall
  • Rainfall
  • Temperature
  • Wind

48-hour and 7-day forecasts from OpenWeather, compared with the design of your building.

  • Access and integration

    Your data is stored securely in the cloud. The platform runs in a web browser, so you can open it on a phone, tablet or computer, anytime and anywhere. Readings can also be passed on to your building management system (BMS).

  • Training

    Every new customer gets training on the Smart Roofs Platform. A user guide covers every key feature, from installing the app to real-life cases, for when a detail slips your mind or a new situation comes up.

“The [Smart Roofs Platform] provides real support in the day-to-day management of roof safety within our network of facilities, enabling simultaneous visibility into the situation on all buildings.”

Other parts of the system

  • S-One sensor on a steel bracket at a roof support inside a warehouse, status light on

    S-One

    Measures how much your roof structure deflects under snow and rain load, around the clock.

  • DSW sensor with a small solar panel on a concrete ballast block, next to a roof drain on a flat roof

    DSW

    Measures ponding water next to your roof drains, every minute, so you know when a drain stops keeping up.

  • S-One, DSW and the Smart Roofs Platform work as one system.
