Blockchain Patrol Inspection Proof Storage System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current patrol inspection methods rely heavily on manpower and lack a supervision mechanism and data record, leading to high costs and difficulties in confirming causes and liabilities during safety inspections in offline sites such as shopping malls, office buildings, and residential areas.
Innovation Solution
A blockchain-based patrol inspection proof storage method that collects and verifies patrol inspection information using mobile terminals, incorporating location-related information and sensor data, to create a tamperproof and traceable record, ensuring the credibility and traceability of inspection records.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If patrol inspection is performed manually without digital recording, then operation simplicity is maintained, but information reliability and traceability deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a blockchain-based intermediary system that mediates between the simple manual inspection process and the need for reliable record-keeping. The blockchain acts as a trusted mediator that automatically verifies and stores inspection data without requiring complex manual documentation procedures, thus improving information reliability while maintaining operational simplicity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces the mechanical system of manual record-keeping with an automated digital system using blockchain technology. Mobile terminals automatically capture inspection data (photos, location, time) and upload to the blockchain, substituting the manual writing and filing process with automated digital capture and cryptographic storage, thereby improving reliability without significantly increasing operational complexity.
2Reliability
If manual patrol inspection is used, then implementation cost is low, but supervision capability and cause confirmation difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent ensures continuous and complete recording of inspection activities by automatically capturing all relevant data (images, location, time, inspector identity) and continuously storing it on the blockchain. This continuous digital recording eliminates gaps in supervision and ensures complete data availability for later review and cause confirmation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates digital copies of inspection evidence (photos, videos, sensor data) and stores them on the blockchain. These digital copies serve as permanent, tamper-proof records that can be reproduced and verified without losing the original information, thereby preventing information loss and enhancing supervision capability.
3Reliability
If inspection records are stored without blockchain, then storage simplicity is maintained, but tamperproof capability and traceability deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies beforehand cushioning by pre-establishing the blockchain infrastructure and cryptographic verification mechanisms before inspection activities begin. The blockchain network and smart contracts are configured in advance to automatically verify and protect inspection data, providing tamperproof capability from the outset without requiring complex post-processing or manual verification procedures.

AI summary
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for blockchain-based storage of patrol inspection proof are provided. One of the methods includes: receiving proof information of patrol inspection at a patrol inspection site; obtaining one or more operating environment parameters of the mobile terminal at a time of the patrol inspection, wherein the one or more operating environment parameters comprise at least location information and sensor data of the mobile terminal; performing credibility verification on the patrol inspection site based on the proof information, the location information, and the sensor data using an algorithm model based on labeled identification information, labeled operating environment parameters, and historical attendance information; and in response to the credibility verification being successful, uploading verification information associated with the proof information for storing in a blockchain.
