Full situational awareness is critical when responding to unanticipated chemical releases at an industrial worksite or accident.
You need up-to-date information to quickly protect workers on site, emergency responders, and if needed, residents of surrounding communities.
Real-time plume modeling—gathered directly from data in the field—can help you make better, faster and more informed decisions and deploy your resources effectively and strategically.
Blackline Safety has partnered with Vlahi, a market leader in plume dispersion modeling software, to deliver best-in-class fence line and perimeter monitoring, and chemical threat analysis. We combine:
Together, they are used to estimate and monitor a released gas's downwind concentration to predict the gas plume's size, speed, and direction of spread.
Real-time gas plume monitoring leveraging connected gas detectors and weather data is an essential emergency response tool to help:
As winds shift and conditions change, so does the plume dispersion model, giving incident commanders and responders the most accurate information about the incident.
Our cloud-based web app lets you share up-to-the-minute reports across first responders to enhance coordination, planning and preparation for worst-case scenarios, as well as limited view reports for other stakeholders like local, state or federal agencies.
“With the connected gas detection tools supporting our hazmat team, I was confident we all had the critical information we needed to make decisions and target our response. I was able to monitor the entire situation as it happened remotely from my cell phone.”
