SCADA, an acronym for supervisory control & data acquisition, refers to a sophisticated system designed primarily for monitoring, controlling, and acquiring data from various processes and facilities. It plays an essential role in observing the real-time status of equipment and systems, facilitating their control as necessary.
This system gathers data directly from the field using sensors and control devices. The collected data can then be presented, scrutinized, and managed within central monitoring centers or control rooms. SCADA finds extensive applications across several domains, including the management of critical infrastructure systems like power grids, water, and gas supplies, the oversight and control of manufacturing processes, and the operational management of transportation networks.
By enabling the continuous collection and analysis of real-time data, SCADA systems are instrumental in identifying potential issues or abnormalities early, thereby allowing for prompt corrective actions to be taken.
