HOW SENTINEL WORKS

From site assessment to mitigation planning.

Map the real location, test hostile vehicle scenarios and compare mitigation options in one practical HVM planning workflow.

THE WORKFLOW

Three steps from site to strategy

Use the same site reference to understand the location, test vehicle approaches and develop practical mitigation options.

STEP 1

Map the site

Import a plan, aerial image or GIS base map and define access points, routes, boundaries and sensitive areas.

  • Real geographical context
  • Access and perimeter definition
  • One shared site reference
STEP 2

Simulate vehicle scenarios

Test vehicle parameters, approach paths, trajectories and potential speeds against the real site layout.

  • Vehicle type, mass and speed
  • Approach paths and trajectories
  • Speed and impact-energy assessment
STEP 3

Plan protection

Position mitigation measures, compare layouts and prepare clear material for review before implementation.

  • Barrier and obstacle positioning
  • Alternative layout comparison
  • Outputs for review and sharing
PLANNING CAPABILITIES

What you can work with

The essential tools for building a site assessment, testing scenarios and reviewing mitigation options.

GIS & plan import

Use plans, layers, aerial imagery or a base map as your site reference.

Vehicle scenarios

Model vehicle parameters, entry angles and multiple approach trajectories.

Barrier library

Position bollards, barriers, planters and other mitigation measures.

Reports & sharing

Create visual outputs that are easier for teams and stakeholders to review.

WHERE SENTINEL FITS

Built for early HVM decisions, before detailed engineering.

Sentinel helps teams assess routes, vehicle scenarios and mitigation layouts without first producing detailed construction drawings.

It complements CAD and BIM tools rather than replacing them: Sentinel supports the planning decisions that come before execution-stage design.

01 Assess

Understand the site and vulnerable approaches.

02 Compare

Review scenarios and mitigation options quickly.

03 Communicate

Turn technical planning into clearer visual material.
