Discover Prodest's success story with OZmap solutions
by Prodest
The Espírito Santo State Government's fiber optic network began to be implemented in 2009 with around 100 points, initially restricted to the capital Vitória, including government agencies, schools, hospitals and public security points. At that time, the network's documentation information was kept in a decentralized manner (paper, scans, files, etc.).
O troubleshooting depended on the knowledge of field technicians, fiber maintenance teams and the inspector responsible for the contract, bringing risks and difficulties to the process. Later, the fiber route and the points served began to be documented via Google Maps, but part of the information on the splice boxes and fibers used were still kept in a decentralized manner.
With the growth of the network to the municipalities of Vitória, the need for a tool that consolidates information route, network points, splice boxes, fibers used. After a broad bidding process, which established the technical requirements for contracting a tool that would structure the scenario information, OZmap established itself as the winner of the process and its inclusion in the technical area's routine brought a series of benefits, including the migration of the entire decentralized knowledge base to a scenario that is now structured, a fact that is essential for the maintenance and evolution of the network.
We have a good relationship with the OZmap development team who worked directly on the migration and customization to meet our expectations. During the term of the contract there are no restrictions on software updates.
Among the improvements resulting from the implementation of the tool, we can mention:
- replication of the splice box documentation in the application with existing fusions, bringing more fidelity to the process;
- fiber lighting tools demonstrating the end-to-end path of communication, including inside splice boxes;
- automatic end-to-end occupied fiber counting showing the availability, or number, of fibers in the circuit;
- location of regions where ruptures occur when OTDR information is passed on by the field team;
- KMZ imports from Google Maps or Google Earth;
- viewing of information contained in the system, in the field, through the OZmob app;
- location of points through georeferencing coordinates.
OZmap wants to help you in the public sector
This is the report of one of the public agencies that trusted our work to optimize and document its infrastructure. The OZmap family of solutions, in addition to being capable of handling large networks, meets the technical requirements required for a public project and continues to evolve to better meet these specific demands.
Furthermore, it is a complete tool that manages various services and processes of network documentation.
