System and method for monitoring rooftop access
A system and method for managing maintenance and repair of a commercial building roof that creates an access event log each time a roof location is accessed and precipitation event log is created each time precipitation occurs at the roof location to narrow the search for access events possibly resulting in roof damage causing a roof leak. A centralized computing system accessible by remote computing devices at each rooftop location is accessed to create an access event log when personnel access the roof. The computing system collects weather data for each rooftop location based on the global position coordinates for the rooftop location. Upon discovery of a roof leak, a system query will identify access events occurring since the latest precipitation event after which no leaks were reported to identify a list of potential causes for the roof damage. The system and method may also be used to consolidate roof maintenance, inspection, and repair to improve asset management.
