Proqio is now in Canada, providing a unified data intelligence platform for geotechnical and structural monitoring. Gain real-time insights on tunnels, transit, and major infrastructure projects
Proqio Brings Unified Data Intelligence to Canadian Infrastructure and Tunnel Projects
Canada represents a frontier of modern civil engineering, where ambitious projects meet some of the world’s most challenging environmental and urban conditions. Proqio, the integrated infrastructure data intelligence platform, is now active across Canada, providing engineering teams with the tools to unify monitoring data, mitigate risk, and deliver complex projects with greater confidence.
From the dense urban excavations of Toronto and Vancouver to remote projects in evolving permafrost regions, Canadian engineers require a real-time view of project health. Proqio serves as the central hub for all geotechnical, structural, and environmental monitoring data, transforming fragmented information into clear, actionable insights.
Addressing Canada’s Unique Infrastructure Monitoring Challenges
Canada’s significant infrastructure investment—through programs like the Investing in Canada Plan—focuses on expanding transit, utilities, and transportation networks. These projects share common, heightened risks:
- Complex Urban Tunneling: Excavating for subway extensions, utility corridors, and pedestrian networks like Toronto’s PATH or Montreal’s RÉSO beneath live cities demands millimeter-level precision and minimal disruption.
- Extreme Environmental Loads: Infrastructure faces freeze-thaw cycles, seismic activity, coastal storms, and the impacts of climate change on northern permafrost.
- Large-Scale & Remote Projects: Monitoring linear infrastructure like pipelines or remote hydropower sites requires robust, cloud-connected systems that function with limited on-site presence.
- Lifecycle Accountability: Owners require continuous data—from construction through to long-term operations—to ensure asset longevity and safety.
The Proqio Advantage for Canadian Tunneling and Civil Projects
Proqio directly addresses these challenges by centralizing data from any sensor or software system into a single collaborative environment.
1. Centralized Data for Complex Tunnel Projects
Tunnel construction generates vast amounts of data from geotechnical instrumentation (inclinometers, piezometers), survey systems (total stations, GNSS), and TBM telemetry. Proqio consolidates this information, allowing teams to:
- Correlate excavation parameters with ground response in real-time.
- Visualize settlement and convergence data against as-built plans and alert thresholds.
- Maintain an independent, auditable record of all monitoring results for consultants and owners.
2. Real-Time Risk Mitigation and Decision Support
Proqio moves teams from reactive to proactive management. The platform’s advanced analytics and visualization tools enable:
- Early Warning Detection: Configure automated alerts based on complex trigger conditions (e.g., settlement rate + vibration level).
- Unified Visualization: View GIS maps, 3D models, dashboards, and time-series graphs in one interface, providing a complete picture of site conditions.
- Stakeholder-Specific Reporting: Generate tailored reports for contractors, engineering consultants, and asset owners directly from live data.
3. Supporting Digital Delivery and BIM Integration
The Canadian industry is rapidly adopting digital construction methodologies. Proqio aligns with this shift by:
- Integrating with BIM (Building Information Modeling) workflows to link monitoring data to digital twins.
- Serving as the data backbone for IoT sensor networks, ensuring reliable data flow from the field to the cloud.
- Enhancing collaboration across dispersed teams of consultants, contractors, and owners with secure, role-based data access.
Proqio’s Commitment to the Canadian Market
Our entry into Canada is more than a launch; it’s a commitment to partner with local firms tackling the country’s most vital projects. We are focused on:
- Building partnerships with leading Canadian engineering consultants, contractors, and infrastructure owners.
- Supporting projects in uniquely challenging environments, such as permafrost regions and major urban transit expansions.
- Ensuring our platform delivers practical value by improving safety, reducing costly unknowns, and strengthening the case for data-driven decision-making.
Canada’s infrastructure ambition requires tools that match its scale and complexity. Proqio provides the unified data intelligence platform to help engineering teams build smarter, safer, and more resilient tunnels and infrastructure. Explore how Proqio can bring clarity to your next project.
