The brief description of each project is available on the subsequent pages:

Mobile Mapping of Major Cities in BelgiumClient: A global leader in surveying and engineering

Objective: To produce high accuracy 3d mapping of Road features, Buildings, Street lights, Trees, Manholes, Sign Boards, etc.

Key Activities :• Pre-processing of the data received.• Dividing the zone according to the boundary.• Digitizing the Buildings, Roads, Street lights,

Manholes, Other Street objects using Visat Station.

• Conversion of Visat files to CAD file and combining of digitized file with House Number/Street name file.

Benefits :• Gives general map with information that is useful for different utilities, for

example useful for gas company, electrical company etc.• Can produce extremely accurate, pervasive, current, accessible, readily

analyzed, and readily visualized 3D street-level data.

LiDAR Data Processing of European Cities Client: A global leader in surveying and engineering solutions

Objective: To provide accurate model & map for transmission lines, allowing utility to measure the shape of the ground below the transmission line, the position of the towers and poles, the sag on the wires, and the up-growth of any vegetation incursions or other possibly illegal incursions into the right of way.Key Activities :• Man made and geographical features are

digitized using LiDAR data in flip7 software. Ortho images were sent by the client for identification of features.

• Digitized wires are used to prepare input files which is used by the client to prepare sag value of wires which is due to temperature, wind and self weight.

• Final Microstation files which contains LP,GP and cadaster in the sheet(GBLEV).

Benefits :• LiDAR technology has demonstrated that speed, high resolution and accuracy

are benefits that can be used for transmission power line assessment• LiDAR is an effective tool that dramatically improves the efficiency of the

current workflow used by power line companies.

Topographical Survey of Telecom TowersClient: A leading clean and green technology solution provider

Objective: • To collect ground data for the telecom towers• Creating drawing file for each tower.

Key Activities :• Installing Total Station at each tower location• Collecting ground information (x, y and z) of plot

boundary, tower location, guard room etc. using Total Station and GPS

• Converting ground collected information to Dwg• Creating drawing file of the entire tower location

with x, y and z information

Benefits :• Topographical data helps in analysing and installing the solar panel.

Ground Verification and GIS Data CollectionClient: A leading telecom company

Objective: • To collect data from the field.• To convert collected data into softcopy format• To create GIS files as per data modelKey Activities :• Created base map using satelite image• Plotting the base map with important landmarks

as labels for field data collection purpose• Collecting information from field such as

telecom manholes, road name, road width, property name, property type, no. of floors, no. of units, etc.

• Data entry of all field forms • Attributing of all field information in GIS and

modifying the base map as per realworld changes

• Creating GIS data as per data modelBenefits :• GIS data helps the telecom company to analyse the consumer base• GIS data helps the telecom company to plan for new towers and upcoming

target areas.

GIS Based Electrical Network MappingClient: A leading Indian electric distribution utility

Objective: • GIS electrical network mapping• Electricity consumer indexing

Key Activities :• Plotting the base map provided by client with

important landmarks as labels for field data collection purpose

• Collecting information from field such as transformer, pole, consumer details etc.

• Data entry of all field forms • Attributing of all field information in GIS and

modifying the base map as per realworld changes

• Creating GIS data as per data model• Relating and connecting consumer data to the

GIS information

Benefits :• onsumer indexing and GIS helps reducing losses for electric distribution utility • GIS data helps in planning and analysing the consumers and rectifying the

problem quickly.
