Industry / 08
For Utilities and Telecom
Pole documentation.
Make-ready evidence.
Route-level reporting.
For rural electric cooperatives, municipal utilities, fiber make-ready contractors, telecom inspection firms, and joint-use audit organizations.
01 / Context
The problem we hear about
Climber-based documentation is expensive, dangerous, and slow.
Utility pole inspection contractors face a shrinking qualified-climber workforce, high safety exposure, and intensifying regulatory documentation requirements.
Most pole inspection work is documentation. Pole-top imagery, attachment inventory, make-ready evidence, joint-use audits, and storm damage assessment do not always require contact with energized equipment.
