Class & HCA Regulatory Analytics
Class & HCA Regulatory Analytics
KYPER is a team of analyst professionals who can speak to all aspects of DOT Class Location and H/MCA studies, implement our client’s interpretations in the application of regulatory law to their own pipeline systems, and advise on precedents and interpretations with integrity and conservative logic to ensure Client Operators stay in compliance with federal safety standards.
What We Do
Our proprietary in-house analytical software and tools are offered as services to our clients as the midstream solution for generating and maintaining traceable, verifiable and complete records of classified pipeline locations and high & medium consequence areas.
KYPER Analytics
We evaluate our client’s data using our proprietary, internally developed regulatory analytical software. Developed by analysts and engineers, the software is an Arc Objects extension of ArcMap which receives pipeline and database inputs from various industry standard formats.
KYPER Logic
The software formats and then iteratively and recursively interprets, organizes, and overlays layered results in easy-to-read, alignment ready feature classes.
Features include interpretive flexibility in the application of boundary adjustments and key definitions while remaining within compliance thresholds.
R.I.S.K.
The Regulatory Integrity Software Kit includes the primary analytical algorithm as well as a host of other purpose-built extensions and tools, the application of which minimizes man hours for the most commonly encountered procedural tasks, resulting in easy, equitable TVC compliance.
KYPER Mapping
The final data is compatible with any database standard and the PDF maps provided to the client are informative aids for personnel around their organization.
