About Neara

Neara is the first physics-enabled digital twin that combines engineering-grade analysis at the individual asset level with network-wide scale. It goes beyond visualization, capturing real-world spatial relationships β€” and how they change in any condition β€” that are essential to answering any β€˜what-if’ question about your network: β€’ Between assets and their surroundings β€” in a >50 mph SW wind scenario, where will assets breach safe clearance thresholds? β€’ Between assets themselves β€” if one pole fails, which other ones will go with it? β€’ Across layers of workflows β€” if a tower gets moved inland, how will vegetation encroachment zones shift? It applies the same physics-verified rigor used in engineering design to the full set of critical infrastructure challenges β€” from asset management and wildfire mitigation to resiliency and reliability, and design and construction. It connects the granular perspective engineers need to maintain a structurally sound, safe system with the network-wid
