Quick Start

import polerisk

# Load your pole data
poles = polerisk.load_data('pole_inventory.csv')

# Assess risk for all poles
risk_assessment = polerisk.assess_risk(poles)

# Get high-risk poles
high_risk = risk_assessment[risk_assessment['risk_score'] > 0.7]

# Generate maintenance schedule
schedule = polerisk.optimize_maintenance(
    high_risk,
    budget=100000,
    time_horizon='1year'
)

# Export results
schedule.to_csv('maintenance_plan.csv')
polerisk.generate_report(schedule, output='report.html')

Core Features

Risk Analysis

# Calculate failure probability
risk_scores = polerisk.calculate_risk(
    poles,
    factors=['age', 'material', 'weather_exposure', 'load'],
    weights='auto'  # or specify custom weights
)

# Identify critical infrastructure
critical = polerisk.identify_critical_poles(
    poles,
    criteria=['customer_impact', 'replacement_cost', 'failure_risk']
)

Predictive Modeling

# Train a failure prediction model
model = polerisk.train_model(
    historical_data,
    target='failure_within_year',
    model_type='random_forest'
)

# Predict failures
predictions = model.predict(current_poles)

# Evaluate model performance
metrics = model.evaluate(test_data)
print(f"Accuracy: {metrics['accuracy']:.2%}")

Geospatial Analysis

# Create risk heat map
risk_map = polerisk.create_risk_map(
    poles,
    base_map='openstreetmap',
    cluster_radius=5  # km
)

# Export interactive map
risk_map.save('pole_risk_map.html')

# Find poles in high-risk zones
zones = polerisk.identify_risk_zones(poles, threshold=0.8)

Maintenance Optimization

# Optimize maintenance schedule
optimal_plan = polerisk.optimize_maintenance(
    poles,
    budget=500000,
    constraints={
        'max_poles_per_month': 100,
        'min_risk_threshold': 0.6,
        'region_balance': True
    }
)

# Calculate ROI
roi = polerisk.calculate_roi(
    optimal_plan,
    avoided_failures=estimated_failures,
    failure_cost=avg_failure_cost
)
