Netvision functionalities• Google Maps GIS (Geographical Information System)

• Site access details with descriptions and photo’s

• Site Audits & Panoramic pictures

• Drawings storage and approval flow

• Line of Sight planning and reporting

• Project and Roll-Out management

• Network inventory (all equipments installed on site)

• Link & Circuit planning and provisioning tool

• Radio Data

• Any other tailor-made development


Google Maps GIS (Geographical Information System)

A Google Maps API combined with a system of layers and filters allow displaying the desired combination of Sites, Links, LoS Links, Circuits, Planned Work Events and Upgrades, based on each element’s pre-defined parameters (status, capacity, technology, etc.).


Site access details with descriptions and photo’s

When hoovering over a Site or clicking on a Link, a contextual menu allows direct access to the element’s attributes (structured into several layers), as well as the initiation of basic operations.


Site access details with descriptions and photo’s

Easily accessible information about Site details and access procedures allow saving I&C and Maintenance costs.Site Engineers will spend less time trying to get access to equipments, into relatively complex/unknown environments.


Site Audits

Customizable Site Audit reports (for any purpose), with photo’s and descriptions, exportable in PDF files.


Panoramic photos

Direct access to site Panoramic pictures, for Radio or Transmission purposes.An unlimited number of sets of Panoramics can be taken and stored in the application, in order to keep up to date with the environment changes or the need of install equipments at different heights.


Drawings storage and approval flow

Site drawings passing through different stages (Draft, Lease Sketch, Detailed Design, Build Permit, As Built) can be stored with their respective revisions.

A client-specific approval process can be defined, so that each concerned department (Built, Health & Safety, Radio, Transmission) give their feedback and approve or reject the architect’s proposals.


Line of Sight planning and reporting

For networks using Microwave technologies, a Line of Sight application module handles the process of requesting, scheduling, reporting and accepting LoS Survey’s. - Important gains in quality, efficiency and signifficant cost savings - 2m vertical accuracy of terrain database (for Western Europe), able to detect obstacles such as pylons, trees, buildings in the path (ref.: http://www.Intermap.com)

http://www.intermap.com/


Line of Sight planning and reporting

A typical Line of Sight report, with Zoom-In, Zoom-Medium & Zoom-Out photos from each end.

Interactivity between planners and surveyors, by means of a forum-like sub-module where discussions can be hold between parties, to clarify aspects of the job.

Reports can be exported in PDF, for supervision, external partners or client-reporting reasons.


Project and Roll-Out management

Each site of the network can be assigned to one or several projects (swaps, technology upgrades, health & safety reviews, preemptive maintenance, etc.)Project activities are defined by the Project Manager and assigned to teams, while the activity owner reports directly through Netvision the status of each task, per site, per project.


Network inventory (all equipments installed on site)

Site Floorplans (extracted from drawing files) are used as background layer for adding planned/installed objects through the browser interface.

Virtually unlimited classes of objects can be defined and handled, such as Cabinets, Feeders, Power Equipments, Cable Trays, DDF’s.

Clicking on an object opens the object’s detailed view, allowing management of further lower hyerarchy objects.



Example:

The view of an indoor cabinet with its available units.Each equipment installed will use a pre-defined number of units.

Planners and Installers using the same common platform will be able to accurately track all existing equipments and available space, for further network planning and maintenance.



The equipments and data inventory goes from Floorplans to as low as virtual circuits over Radio, Transmission, or IP interfaces.

It looks pretty much like an equipment Management System or OSS and can be linked, on request, with such systems, for reporting purposes, for example.


Link & Circuit planning and provisioning tool

MW Link budget calculators such as IQ Link, Connect, Tems, Pathloss, are mainly designed to be used by planning departments.Netvision fills the gap between Planning, I&C and Operations, by making the Planned information and Installation/Operations reports available in the same platform.


Link & Circuit planning and provisioning tool

Example:

A link budget introduced in Netvision will contain a lot more info (like dish and modems positions) than any link budget generated by a Planning Tool (IQ Link, Tems).

The same Link Budget (to be viewed as a « work order ») will be populated with I&C information, and could become an acceptance document.

Signifficant cost savings in terms of efficiency can be achieved.


Radio Data module

The Radio Data module handles the planning of all Radio parameters, per site, per technology (DCS, EGSM, 3G, LTE), down to Cell level.

Successive configurations are saved as versions, allowing for structured history keeping.


Radio Data – Drive Test

Post-processed drive test data can be stored in the application, enhanced by the accessibility and user-friendlyness of Google Maps API.Correlation with the Planned Works / Upgrades module, so Drive Tests can be simply requested as Work Orders and the Subcontractor notified automatically of the new request.


Any other tailor-made development

Most tailor-made features, as per customer’s requirements can be developed in the following (estimate) timeframes:

- Low complexity (adding fields in DB, datafixing, search options, etc.) – 2 working days

- Medium complexity (creation of new managed objects, search forms, etc.) – 1 week

- High complexity (modelling new business concepts, introduction of new managed technologies) – 1 month


Pricing model

1. Sold as a monthly invoiceable hosted service

2. No initial set-up fee (if a minimum 1 Year contract is signed)

3. Basic platform provided; modules (options) to be activated, depending on Client’s neccessities.

4. Scalability - Approximate cost of a « Testing environment » of 100 Sites (with the corresponding Links, LoS, Projects) will be around 2.000€/month, all modules (options) included - Approx. cost of a « Full-size environment » of 3.000 Sites will be around 2.000€/month, with the basic options active - Approx. cost of the « Full-size, full-options » solution, for 3.000 Sites, will be around 28.000€/month

5. Upgrades and Developments that add intrinsic value to the application are provided free of charge
