Increase the intelligence of your products and improve your R&D processes.
Whether you need a technical team to build a solution or an individual expert (data scientist, project manager) to an existing team, we are here to help.
Our consultants support your Edge R&D efforts from initial design decisions to MLops and beyond. Our superb team is dedicated to solving your toughest problems relating to Edge AI and its many specialty areas - such as machine vision and cameras, machine learning model development, and edge data capture. In addition, we provide turn-key projects aligned with your R&D roadmap and objectives.
Hard-core data scientist whose results speak for themselves.
A versatile expert in network information systems, asset and spatial data management, as well as network data analytics.
Highly skilled professional ready to excel in data analysis and data quality management.
One size does not fit all. Design principles need to fit business models, technology choices, and other constraints to fulfill the requirements.
Research and development processes typically take time and the more you can accelerate activities the bigger the business payback will be. There’s not one architecture that would fit all use cases similarly. Industrial edge solutions are inherently rather complex combinations of different elements such as sensor hardware, drivers, messaging, processing algorithms, ML models, and business applications. Keeping the stack simple, efficient yet powerful is the key to long-term success. We can support your edge R&D efforts from initial design decisions to MLops and beyond.
We have deep knowledge and understanding of Edge AI and its many specialty areas.
Whether your challenge is about machine learning or machine vision, or selecting the right technology or hardware, we can help. You can utilize our expertise e.g., in the following areas:
We provide turn-key projects aligned with your R&D roadmap and objectives.
New product development processes have different stages from early prototyping and proving solution feasibility to creating market-ready scalable products. In parallel with the product development process, product management is crucial - a full packaged solution can be a combination of multiple functional components where Edge AI alone might be a small but vital component. Advian can act as an extension to your R&D capacity delivering Edge AI modules to your full product portfolio. We want to succeed with you and understand your objectives, scope, and processes so delivery can be fitted to your processes.
Advian and Sharper Shape - to new heights with refined analytics.Sharper Shape is an international provider of automated drone and helicopter-based electrical network inspection services. Advian has been accelerating the company's strong growth from spring 2019 in various projects.
Railway Infrastructure Maintenance Analysis using Satellite Data. Advian analyzed soft areas along the railway, where the embankment moves more than usual. Excessive movement of the track embankment increases the need for maintenance activities, and during a renovation, such areas need to be stabilized.
Reducing tractors warranty costs with Machine Learning. As a major part of their product development process, Valtra the leading tractor manufacturer in the Nordics, wanted to cut field costs related to tractor warranty claims. We at Advian responded with a Machine Learning solution, that gives Valtra a part-by-part prediction of warranty costs.
Improving the detection of district heating leaks using AI. Advian develops thermal data processing to enable a full heat map of the district heating area, as well as using Artificial Intelligence and Computer Vision technologies to differentiate district heating leaks from other naturally occurring warm features in the city.
Automating receipts accounting with Machine Learning. We streamlined the accounting of Ukko’s customers’ receipts using Machine Learning. The automatisation resulted in time and cost savings, as well as freed a team of accountants for other essential tasks.
Streamlining customer connection process with Data Management. The connection process of Turku Energia’s new customers to their district heating system was made more efficient, reliable, and systematic. The renewed process adds transparency and saves time, costs, and improves the quality of their services.
Migrating customer and consumption data to Datahub. Along with the implementation of Datahub, all sellers and distributors of electricity were required to deliver customer and consumption data to Fingrid. We supported Elenia in the migration of data including data quality assurance, data analysis and ensuring system operations.
Testing and developing the national Datahub project. Fingrid is shaping the clean, market-oriented power system of the future. We supported and guided Fingrid in a large-scale data conversion project, where all Finnish electricity retail market actors switched to Datahub.
Algorithms for customer potential analytics. The Pharmaceutical Information Centre produces medical information and data management services for organizations in healthcare and pharmaceutics. We built a machine-learning based analytics solution used for customer segmentation and analysis in the sales of pharmaceutical products.
Detecting district heating leakages with satellite imagery. We analyzed Helen's district heating network leakages in the Helsinki area using satellite imagery.
Accurate multi-sensor positioning with Edge Analytics. We designed and piloted crucial parts of next generation railway access control system to Fintraffic. The goal of the pilot was real-time, interference-free and accurate positioning on the entire Finnish rail network. In the pilot, satellite positioning was supplemented with inertia and stereo camera sensors.

Advian has supported Fortum’s Nordic trading and asset optimisation unit (TAO) during 2022-2023 in their data and analytics development. With the help of reformed reporting and KPIs, Fortum is now able to assess their trading performance against the market, and use supporting analytics tools to get better optimisation results in the future.
Developing algorithms for 3D modelling and locating ground cables. We co-innovated new solutions with Caruna to collect ground cable location data and to store the exact location of the cable for future usage already during the installation phase, to enable efficiency and better quality in future maintenance activities.
