Operations and Procedures

Standard operating procedures (SOPs) for working on decentralized mechanisms begin with a thorough site assessment though satellite imagery to understand the dynamics and temperatures. Then initial design to properly install and verify connectivity. Routine maintenance should be scheduled to inspect power sources, sensors, and data integrity regularly. Automated alerts should be in place to monitor data for anomalies, supplemented by occasional manual checks. Systems should use modular designs to allow for quick and simple component replacements with minimal disruption. Over-the-air updates are essential for maintaining software performance and security. Emergency protocols must include fail-safes and redundancies to ensure continued operation during outages or unexpected events.
