Utility Pole and Telecom Tower Inspections
Standards-Compliant / End-to-End Digital Workflow
We provide a fully integrated, technology-driven solution for utility pole inspection, structural analysis, and compliance management, combining Laser Technology and UAV-based data capture systems with industry-leading Pole Loading Analysis (PLA) tools like Ike PoleForeman, O-Calc Pro, and SPIDAcalc.
Our approach delivers a seamless, end-to-end workflow from field data acquisition to engineering certification, aligned with key regulatory frameworks, including the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), NESC (ANSI C2), ANSI O5.1, and ASTM standards.
The Challenge
Utilities face increasing pressure to:
-
Maintain aging pole infrastructure under stricter safety and compliance standards
-
Support joint-use demand (Utilities and telecom/fiber attachments) under NESC, ANSI, ASTM and FCC regulations (47 CFR §224)
-
Improve inspection speed, safety, and accuracy while reducing operational costs
-
Ensure engineering-grade structural validation for Pole Loading Analysis (PLA) make-ready (MRE) and grid hardening programs
​
Traditional inspection methods are labor-intensive, risky, and often lack the data quality required for defensible engineering analysis.
Our Solution
We deliver a digitized inspection and engineering ecosystem that integrates:
​
Data Capture
High-resolution aerial data capture of poles, attachments, and clearances using a GPS, Laser rangefinder, calibrated image tool—reducing field time and eliminating most climbing risks
​
Digital Inspection & Asset Management
Structured data collection and condition assessment using AI capable applications combined with specialized tools
​
Engineering Analysis (PLA)
Structural modeling and compliance validation using Poleforman, O-Calc Pro and SPIDAcalc
​
Make-Ready & Compliance Engineering
Design and validation aligned with NESC Rules 235C2b (clearances) and 250B (grounding), ANSI O5.1, ASTM D3200/D2899, and FCC pole attachment rules
​
System Integration
Delivery of GIS-ready datasets and engineering reports for full asset lifecycle management
Business Impact
Our solution enables utilities and telecom operators to:
​
Improve Safety
Reduce workforce exposure to climbing and energized environments
​
Accelerate Deployment
Cut inspection and engineering cycles from weeks to days
​
Ensure Compliance
Generate audit-ready documentation aligned with FCC, and NESC
​
Optimize Capital Investment
Identify overloaded or non-compliant poles early, reducing costly rework
​
Enhance Data Quality
Provide engineering-grade, repeatable datasets for long-term asset management
