How telecommunications can benefit from 360 Cameras
Identifying locations for new cell towers
The telecommunications sector is the glue that holds society together.
Maps are an important part of understanding a region. Besides geographical references and road networks, highly advanced maps such as GIS (geographical information systems) allow the user to gather insight into a region’s population, density and traffic. This information can then be used to determine whether or not it would be advisable to enter that area for future construction and implementation of telecommunication infrastructure such as new cell towers or fiber optic cables.
This information is only possible through data collected by such tools as the Mosaic 51, a mobile mapping camera which can capture 360 images of streets, buildings, and the natural environment.
Maintaining current infrastructure
Maintenance of cables, electrical poles, and other types of infrastructure related to telecom companies is a constant and necessary task.
It requires staying up to date on the current conditions of the infrastructure, which is an extremely time-consuming and expensive task. Regularly maintenance checks typically require a lot of man-hours.
But with a mobile mapping device such as the Mosaic 51, this sort of maintenance can be done with one driver, using an easy-to-install roof device, which holds an industrial-grade 360-degree camera. While other similar cameras require additional hardware within the vehicle, the Mosaic 51 contains all of the necessary hardware within the device. The information can then be accessed remotely, without site visits, and shared with all parties involved.
