District energy

Authorities throughout Europe have recognized the deployment of district energy networks as a crucial element in achieving carbon neutrality targets. The opportunity to decarbonize heating supply for millions of citizens connected to district heating and cooling systems across Europe lies in the modernization of existing infrastructure. This growth is stimulated by the expansion and development of networks, driven by national objectives and the sector's ambitions to meet individual countries' energy and climate goals.

 

Practical deployment strategies have garnered increasing interest, and Comsof Heat's integrated approach offers comprehensive planning and design capabilities for the development of intricate district energy grids.

Government

Whether it’s providing community services or maintaining high-speed connectivity for their own fiber networks, governments from cities, counties, and states to federal entities, airports, and commercial providers struggle with reliability. They often lack the flexible network management software to thoroughly document and monitor their network assets and performance. Limited budgets and stakeholder oversight make it difficult to invest in new technology, which must have a clear return on investment. Without maintaining a proper network inventory, they have inefficient operations between teams and incomplete reporting for external parties.  

 

IQGeo’s Network Manager Telecom gives government fiber network operators the geospatial software they need to perform thorough network documentation and the single platform that makes this data viewable and sharable across teams. Our packaged solution enables government operators to begin using it almost immediately, comes at a cost-effective price point, and is easy for new users to learn.

Education

Universities, school districts, and educational corporations find it difficult to manage their equipment and connection data because they don’t have centralized fiber database. At the same time, more students, faculty, and staff than ever depend on these education fiber networks, making uptime a critical priority. Without current data that can be shared between teams, they can struggle to make informed decisions for operating, upgrading or expanding their networks. 

 

Those challenges can be solved with IQGeo’s Network Manager Telecom, our geospatially based fiber network management software that gives education network operators a single solution to document, update, and share network asset data across the organization. In addition to building more efficient workflows, Network Manager Telecom drives higher reliability, a user-friendly interface, and the ability to deliver thorough reports to stakeholders.

Transport

For transportation fiber networks, from transportation departments to railways and airport authorities, performance is critical. They need to document and map their fiber infrastructure so that they can proactively identify and address any issues that might derail their operations. Even more, they need to streamline the management of critical network components, such as fiber optic cables and electrical circuits. Currently, they struggle to properly analyze their networks because teams use disparate applications, while investing in new solutions is challenging because stakeholders carefully monitor costs. 

 

With IQGeo’s Network Manager Telecom, operators of transportation fiber networks have a cost-friendly, low-code solution that can be deployed almost immediately. Every team can view thorough network insights and operate proactively to ensure higher network performance.  

View solution
  • Accurately document and map your fiber infrastructure.

Cooperatives

Electric utilities face the daunting tasks of overhauling their underlying operational and support systems to meet the challenges of decarbonization, decentralization, digitalization, and resiliency. For cooperatives, the challenge is even more daunting due to budget constraints. However, the only way to move forward is to solve the data errors, inaccurately modeled assets, and delays in GIS updates that they experience today. 

 

What they need is IQGeo’s Adaptive Grid: a single across design, construction, operations, and outage management. Adaptive Grid helps cooperative networks visualize and update grid asset data in the field and share those updates with the back office. They can visualize and model DERs in front of and behind the meter. They can also quickly build new workflows to streamline processes such as inspections and outage management.

  • Manage costs with a packaged, rapidly deployable solution.

Design and engineering firms

For the design and engineering firms who struggle to compete in the competitive fiber broadband industry, they need to respond quickly to requests for new fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) designs. Currently, many of these firms depend on manual designs, which are too time-consuming for multiple design scenarios. For projects to be profitable, they need to deliver more with less resources. Since fiber operators often have different network architectures, design firms need software that can be easily configured to any customer system. They also focus so much time on customer demands that they have limited time to learn how to use a new solution. 

 

Comsof Fiber can solve all of these challenges and more. It’s the leading automated planning and design software for engineering firms who want to deliver accurate designs more rapidly, flexibly, and with higher ROI. With Comsof Fiber, you can automate the creation of multiple design scenarios and eliminate manual work. The solution is easy to learn and use, enabling fast adoption. And it can be quickly configured to any network architecture.  

View solution
  • Save time by replacing manual designs with digital automation.

  • Scale fiber planning by quickly creating multiple design scenarios.

  • Begin using immediately with a user-friendly interface.

  • Deliver customer data in the format they prefer.

Water utilities

To meet the challenges of adequate water supply, contamination, hydraulic surge, and other vital data, water utilities need a better way to digitally manage their workflows. Most do not have a single geospatial view of their network assets and connectivity, which forces them into time-consuming manual work, handoffs between teams, and outdated data. These problems are then exacerbated by preventing them from incorporating modern technologies such as smart metering and IoT software. 

 

With IQGeo Field Mobility, physical asset data can be viewed and updated on a mobile device in the field. Those updates are automatically shared with the system of record, ensuring current geospatial views of the network across all teams. Our solution enables streamlined workflows so that water utilities can efficiently execute new pipeline construction, capture as-built data, and collect and report on assets during routine inspections.
