The following report provides an overview of the and its Vigilance Division Monitoring System (VDMS) . 1. Executive Summary
- Siting strategy: place monitors at key substations, generation tie points, major feeders, and critical industrial/customers to maximize event observability.
- Data management: balance high-fidelity waveform capture with storage costs; use hierarchical retention (raw short-term, summarized long-term).
- Cybersecurity and privacy: secure telemetry channels, authenticate devices, and implement role-based access to event data.
- Interoperability: adopt common data models (e.g., IEEE C37.111/COMTRADE for waveform exchange, IEC 61850 for substation data) and open APIs for analytics integration.
- Governance: define thresholds, alarm policies, data-sharing agreements among NPCC members, and standardized reporting formats.
- Vehicle registration (call sign)
- Mileage
- Defect category (e.g., brakes, tires, lights, steering, electrical)
- Severity level (Critical, Major, Minor, or Advisory)
- Photographic or video evidence

The NPCC VDMS platform has a wide range of applications across the power grid industry: fault path analysis
- Time-aligned event timelines and geolocated disturbance maps.
- Per-event reports: event summary, waveform plots, computed indices, affected devices.
- Periodic power-quality reports: counts of sags/swells, harmonic trends, compliance dashboards.
- Forensic packages for major events: multi-site waveform correlation, fault path analysis, and recommended remedial actions.
