Data Collection

Updated: Oct 23

UTILITY POLE COLLECTION

When it comes to OSP engineering, accuracy is everything. At the end of the day, we’re engineering changes to poles’ loads, and mistakes are much more than an inconvenience. The Katapult method of data collection is safe, efficient, and produces deliverables with the highest degree of accuracy. The data you collect will be ideal for third-party attachment applications, make ready engineering, and pole loading analysis. Katapult Pro is a comprehensive solution for OSP engineering that simplifies each step of the process — from design to delivery. The system is easy-to-learn and easily scalable for projects of any size. Contact us to set up a demo today!

UTILITY POLE DATA COLLECTION MADE EASY

The Katapult method uses a unique documentation process to facilitate data collection in the field with photographs. Developed by our engineers looking for a safer, faster, more accurate way to document existing conditions, we spend less time at each pole while collecting superior data.

Katapult Pro is a flexible solution for all your data collection needs:

  • Crews don’t have to enter the power space to collect data, saving your team from potential liability and improving turnaround times

  • Engineers can perform make ready engineering and pole loading analysis remotely, without ever leaving the comfort of their desk

  • Collection follows standard scopes no matter the client; your permitting field crew can grab data for SPIDA or O-Calc analysis without switching workflows

POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS

Katapult Pro has the flexibility to meet the specific demands of any project. Some potential applications include:

  • Utility pole attachments and equipment heights

  • Verifying geolocation data and pole tag identification

  • Make ready engineering

  • Pole loading analysis

  • Measuring pole distance from roads and confirming pole condition

  • Perform utility surveys such as capacitors, smart grid, and MOLBAB

  • Auditing undocumented third-party attachments

  • DAS/small cell, and cellular network surveys

Collected data is uploaded and viewed immediately by your staff. From there, you can access a powerful suite of web-based analytical tools that allow you to extrapolate additional data, annotate photos and more.


WE COULD BE MAD SCIENTISTS ABOUT ANYTHING, BUT WE CHOSE POLES.

No matter what the requirements of your project, Katapult Engineering can help. We have the team to turn around any project faster, and we back up everything we do with knowledgeable service from our team of in-house OSP engineers and experts.
