One camera network. Every kind of site.

Stockpiles and tipping halls can smoulder for hours before anyone notices, often after the site has closed. Woodcock AI watches the cameras you already have for the first signs of smoke and flame, and checks the yard and the people working in it on the same feeds.

Key risks

• Stockpile and bay fires that start out of hours
• Lithium-ion batteries hidden in loads
• Trespass and metal theft after the gates are locked
• People on foot working near loading shovels

Recommended pack

• Smoke & fireThin grey smoke rising from the back of a stockpile at 3am, sent with the clip so someone can check it straight away.
• IntrusionSomeone climbing the palisade fence into the yard after the gates are locked.
• Human detectionA person on foot in the quarantine bay, where nobody should be.
• Vehicle detectionA lorry pulling up to the tipping bay outside permitted hours.
• PPE detectionA picker in the tipping hall without hi-vis, close to a loading shovel.
• AI natural descriptions"Grey smoke is rising from the stockpile by the back wall. Nobody is in the yard."
