Achieving ISP Scale: The Power of Integrating Geospatial Information & Design
August 8 – 10:00 am to 10:45 am
Room 3

As organizations look to scale their organizations rapidly, many are finding that existing systems are unable to achieve the necessary scale to design and manage their ever-growing networks. In Utah, Strata Networks is expanding its footprint to support both grant-funded and municipal networks. Realizing that it needed to rethink its approach to design, fiber management and construction phases, Strata created a technology strategy centered around Geospatial data that is enabling it to achieve its goals. This panel discussion will provide attendees with a glimpse into Strata’s strategic planning and discuss how its partners have helped enable more rapid field collection, engineering design and operationalization of the data for construction and network management.
