AI Stormwater
inspections.
Bridgeway pairs GSWCC-certified inspectors with computer vision, drone imagery and ML models trained on real Georgia stormwater data. The result: faster site coverage, more consistent defect detection, and a digital asset inventory you can actually use between inspections.
The Essentials,
Handled.
Computer-vision defect detection
Models flag erosion, sediment, BMP failures and silt-fence damage automatically — reviewed by a certified inspector.
Drone-captured imagery
High-resolution aerial coverage of ponds, slopes and outfalls without setting foot in tall grass or contaminated water.
Digital asset inventory
Every pond, BMP, inlet and outfall geo-located with photos, condition score and maintenance history.
Change detection over time
Year-over-year sediment depth, vegetation and erosion trends so dredging and repairs are scheduled, not reactive.
MS4 & NPDES-ready reports
Signed by a GSWCC-certified inspector, filed directly with your jurisdiction.
Owner dashboard
Property managers and HOA boards see asset condition, photos and recommendations on phone or desktop.
The technology is the means. The certification is the proof.
AI doesn't replace the inspector — it makes the inspector better. Every report we file is reviewed and signed by a GSWCC, QPSWPPP or QCIS-certified professional. That's why our work holds up at the City of Atlanta, Fulton, DeKalb, Cobb and Georgia EPD — and why our clients pass audits the first time.
Common Questions.
What is an AI stormwater inspection?
An AI stormwater inspection uses computer vision, drone imagery and machine-learning models to detect erosion, sediment accumulation, BMP failures, illicit discharges and structural defects faster and more consistently than visual-only inspections — paired with a certified human inspector who signs the report.
Is an AI-powered inspection accepted by the City of Atlanta and Georgia EPD?
Yes. Regulators accept the inspection report, not the tool used to gather data. Our reports are signed by a GSWCC-certified inspector and meet all MS4 and NPDES documentation requirements.
What does AI actually do during the inspection?
It flags issues automatically: sediment depth changes in detention ponds, eroded slopes near outfalls, missing or damaged silt fence, exposed soil exceeding thresholds, and proprietary BMP fill levels. Everything is reviewed by our inspector before the report is filed.
Is AI stormwater inspection more expensive?
Not for our clients. AI lets us cover more ground faster, so pricing is comparable to a traditional inspection — and your report is more defensible.
Can you map our entire stormwater asset portfolio?
Yes. We build a digital asset inventory — every pond, BMP, outfall and inlet geo-located with photos, condition score and maintenance history — that your team can access on phone or desktop.
