Remote monitoring is the monitoring of processes, systems, buildings or machinery from a distance, without being physically present. It usually runs over digital networks such as the internet and makes it possible to capture data in real time, raise alarms or intervene whenever something unusual or a fault is detected.
The advantages of remote monitoring
- Real-time response: problems can be identified and dealt with immediately.
- Lower costs: monitoring from a distance removes the need for regular visits on site.
- Greater security: automatic alarms and continuous monitoring reduce risk and allow a fast response.
For sites, CIBORIUS combines remote monitoring with remote video surveillance and its own control centre.
