Turn surveillance into operational data. Where activity concentrates, where it stalls, how shifts compare, and whether waste is being handled the way your consent conditions require — measured from the cameras you already have rather than from a separate sensor programme.
Counts people, vehicles and equipment by zone — live occupancy and shift-by-shift comparison.
Occupancy heatmaps showing where activity concentrates across the plant over time.
Detects waste being tipped, burned or stockpiled outside designated areas, inside the plant boundary or at the gate — the practice that turns a routine pollution control board inspection into a show-cause notice.
Detects congestion at gates, canteens, muster points and assembly areas around shift change — and during a mock drill, gives you evacuation time and muster headcount from the cameras rather than from a stopwatch and a clipboard.
Safety performance is usually reported through lagging indicators — frequency and severity rate, and TRIR or DART where a group standard applies — which only move once someone is hurt. What sits underneath them are the SIF precursors: the conditions and behaviours present before a serious injury or fatality, most of which have already occurred many times without consequence. Xorth captures them continuously — PPE non-compliance, work at height without fall arrest, exclusion-zone entry, hot work without controls — on every shift and every enabled camera. In practice this is behaviour-based safety observation done continuously: the observation card your supervisor never had time to fill in, and the near-miss nobody reported because nobody was hurt.
Helmets, hi-vis, gloves, eye protection and safety footwear — each mapped to the exposure it controls: falling objects overhead, struck-by near forklifts and AGVs, laceration and chemical contact at assembly, particulate at cutting and grinding, puncture and crush on the floor. Rules are set per zone and per shift, because a hairnet requirement in a food hall and a face-shield requirement at a grinding station are not the same rule.
Flags workers on mezzanines, maintenance platforms and overhead walkways without a correctly worn harness connected to a suitable anchorage.
Identifies a fallen or immobile worker immediately and raises a priority alert to the floor supervisor with the location attached.
Visual early warning across plant cameras — alongside, never replacing, your statutory detection and suppression system.
From gate to production floor, entry into controlled areas is detected and logged, giving you an access record that supports both your safety case and your IP protection — without waiting on a guard's register.
Alerts on entry outside working hours or into restricted-access zones.
Flags unauthorised personnel entering cleanrooms, gowning areas, hazardous material stores and IP-sensitive production areas.
Reads and logs every vehicle plate at plant gates and loading dock entry points.
Monitors high-value stock, components and tooling for unauthorised movement or removal.
Recognises staff, contractors and registered visitors enrolled with consent, at controlled entry points.
Assembly-line safety without slowing the line: PPE compliance, forklift speed, danger zones around robotic cells and restricted-area enforcement.
Cleanroom and gowning-area access control, restricted-zone enforcement and a timestamped entry record for every controlled area.
Hygiene-zone gear compliance, restricted-area access control and fire early warning across processing and cold-storage floors.
Hot zones, molten-metal areas, overhead crane paths and dust suppression watched continuously in the highest-energy environments on the floor.
Restricted-area access for cleanrooms, high-value component protection and headcount by zone across contract manufacturing floors.
Machine-area exclusion zones, fire-risk early warning and PPE compliance across high-density production floors.
Loading bays, forklift corridors and picking zones monitored for safety and stock loss around the clock.
