The Vector Sheet Framework™

We read the spreadsheets you can’t replace.

Most utility intelligence is trapped in complex, legacy spreadsheets: release schedules, geotech models, asset registers. Our framework reads the hidden logic of these models, converting static cells into vectorized knowledge that the Syfter engine can reason over.

Syfter AI · Agent-of-Agents

Not one model. A collaborative fleet.

Syfter deploys specialized sub-agents: Hydrology, Compliance, Maintenance, Geotech, Procurement. They consult each other, cross-verify, and produce auditable answers. Every recommendation includes a Citation Path linking back to the source document or sensor ID.

Digital Twin Data Lake

One fabric. Every signal. Every history.

Time-series telemetry, GIS layers, BIM/CAD blueprints, FERC filings, and maintenance logs unified into a single queryable substrate using a Delta Lake architecture: high-speed ingestion alongside long-term analytical storage with spatio-temporal indexing.

02 Integration

Bridge the legacy. Don’t rip and replace.

Legacy SCADA migration

An OPC-UA or MQTT broker bridges Ignition, Wonderware, and historian systems to the AquaSys Data Lake.
The ETL pipeline cleans dirty historical data: sensor dropouts, frozen values, unit mismatches.
Zero-downtime overlay: ICE runs alongside the existing HMI during migration windows.
Protocols: OPC-UA · MQTT · Modbus · DNP3

GIS & hydrology datasets

Spatio-temporal indexing aligns ArcGIS layers with real-time time-series telemetry.
Delta Lake architecture supports both high-speed ingestion and long-term analytical replay.
NOAA, USGS, and tributary gauge networks ingested as first-class data sources.
Sources: ArcGIS · NOAA HRRR · USGS · NEXRAD
03 Non-Functional Requirements

The standards utilities are held to, engineered in.

NFR-01 Sovereignty

VPC or sovereign on-premise. AES-256 at rest. TLS 1.3 in transit. RBAC with SSO/SAML.

NFR-02 Latency

Syfter alarm rationalization delivered within <2 seconds of any SCADA trigger event.

NFR-03 Auditability

Every recommendation includes a Citation Path back to the source document or sensor ID.

NFR-04 Scalability

Up to 100,000 concurrent telemetry tags with sub-second polling intervals.

04 Operational & Regulatory Reporting

Compliance, on autopilot.

State safety compliance

Monthly summaries of dam seepage and movement against regulatory safety limits.

Water accounting

Automated logs of total inflow, outflow, and evaporation for water rights reporting.

Black box audit trails

Every AI-suggested action and the human operator’s final decision, sealed and queryable.

05 Future Enhancements

The path to autonomy is gradual and reviewed.

Phase 2

Autonomous Valve Control

Move from human-in-the-loop to human-on-the-loop. AI manages gate operations within narrow, pre-approved safety envelopes.

Phase 3

Cross-Utility Benchmarking

Anonymized data sharing between regional water agencies to benchmark pump efficiency and infrastructure longevity.

Phase 4

Edge AI Micro-Agents

Syfter Micro-Agents deployed directly to edge gateways at remote dam sites with limited connectivity.
