INFRASTRUCTURE MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
1. An infrastructure monitoring system comprising:
- a first monitoring device configured todetect and monitor a first condition of a first aspect of the infrastructure andtransmit a data signal including data relating to the first condition;
a second monitoring device configured todetect and monitor a second condition of a second aspect of the infrastructure and transmit a data signal including data relating to the second condition;
a third monitoring device configured todetect and monitor a third condition of a third aspect of the infrastructure and transmit a data signal including data relating to the third condition; and
an operations center communicatively coupled to each monitoring device, the operations center configured to receive the data signal from each monitoring device and determine whether the data included in the data signal received from any one of the monitoring devices indicates a problem within the infrastructure, wherein the first aspect, the second aspect, and the third aspect define different aspects of the infrastructure system.

Abstract
An infrastructure monitoring system includes: a first monitoring device configured to detect and monitor a first condition of a first aspect of the infrastructure and transmit a data signal including data relating to the first condition; a second monitoring device configured to detect and monitor a second condition of a second aspect of the infrastructure and transmit a data signal including data relating to the second condition; a third monitoring device configured to detect and monitor a third condition of a third aspect of the infrastructure and transmit a data signal including data relating to the third condition; and an operations center communicatively coupled to each monitoring device, the operations center configured to receive the data signal from each monitoring device and determine whether the data included in the data signal received from any one of the monitoring devices indicates a problem within the infrastructure.

11. A method of disseminating information, the method comprising:
-
detecting, by a first monitoring device, a first condition of a first aspect of an infrastructure and transmitting a data signal to an operations center, the data signal including data relating to the first condition; detecting, by a second monitoring device, a second condition of a second aspect of the infrastructure and transmitting a data signal to the operations center, the data signal including data relating to the second condition; detecting, by a third monitoring device, a third condition of a third aspect of the infrastructure and transmitting a data signal to the operations center, the data signal including data relating to the third condition; and determining, by the operations center, whether the data included in the data signal received from any of the monitoring devices indicates a problem within the infrastructure, wherein the first aspect, the second aspect, and the third aspect define different aspects of the infrastructure. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. An infrastructure monitoring system comprising:
-
a first monitoring device at a first location, the first monitoring device configured to detect and monitor a condition of an aspect of an infrastructure and transmit a data signal including data relating to the condition; a second monitoring device at a second location, the second monitoring device configured to detect and monitor the condition of the aspect of the infrastructure and transmit a data signal including data relating to the condition; and an operations center communicatively coupled to each monitoring device, the operations center configured to receive the data from the first and second monitoring devices, determine whether the data from the first monitoring device differs from the data from the second monitoring device, and determine whether a difference in data indicates a problem within the infrastructure. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
