Applications and technologies for monitoring are evolving rapidly.
‘We're seeing a rapid increase in enabling technologies and tools in
the form of loT platforms, sensors, connectivity, and protocols,
Regulators and stakeholders are increasingly demanding more data
transparency and access to real-time conditions.
‘This report provides a snapshot of industry direction and understanding of
the current landscape, formed by the expert opinions of over 200
scientists, engineers, and industry specialists
End-users are moving to real-time with more than a quarter of end-users
reporting an upcoming move in 2022 to real-time and three quarters
expecting they will be monitoring precominantly remotely by 2025.
‘According to responses, this is largely (41.9%) driven by organizational
needs for real-time data in decision-making processes,
Given this real-time drive, almost a third (20%) of end-users are already
reporting a shortage of talent as their most pressing challenge. This skis,
{gap could be addressable by connecting organizations with technical
sensor deployment skils to these end-users switching to real-time
methods
Respondents also identified mukiple limitations in sensing hardware
inhibiting broader uptake of remote monitoring, from maintenance costs to
lack of suitable sensors for their analyses
Expect to see monitoring programs expand in 2022 as over tity per cent
(@1.596) of respondents reported an increase in parameters as their
biggest upcoming change for the year.

F 208 survey responses, almost half the
participants (48.9%) were located in
Australia, just under a quarter (23.9%) in
‘the United States and the remaining
distributed across Canada, the UK, New
Zealand with outliers such as Brazil,
Indonesia, Germany, Sweden, and Kenya,
‘The geographic spread was skewed by
feagle.io's operations across Australia,
New Zealand and the United States. We
believe the resulting findings retain broad
multinational application due to the
‘maturity of these markets,
‘toe f Condon Mentaing 2022) Oenoauehis BentleyReal-time monitoring via remote sensors was the most prevalent monitoring method across the industry. However, a large proportion of both
service providers and end-users stil feature manual monitoring methods in their practice. This suggests the industry isin a transition period
from manual to tealime, with several factors driving and inhibiting remote adoption covered later in this report.

Water, Air (quality and meteorological) and
Hydrometrc (ground and surface water
level measurement) were the most
commonly monitored analytics across
respondents
With remote sensor talent shortages
reported in both Air and Water Quality by
end-users, there's a market opportunity for
providers who have these capabilities to
service end-user demand.
A note of caution on extrapolating market
‘ize from this count data, although there
are fewer companies and end-users
Undertaking structural or geotechnical
‘monitoring by count, the number of
sensors and scale of these monitoring
systems when deployed can be very large.
