FTTx engineering delivery
FTTx Network Design and Planning
Geospatial Net provides structured FTTx planning from early route strategy through construction ready design, documentation, quality control and GIS handover. We can own a defined work package or operate as an extension of your engineering team.
No polished brief required. Start with the corridor, asset data or workflow that is holding delivery back.

Where delivery breaks down
The workflow problem
Fibre programmes lose momentum when commercial targets, field reality, design rules and handover requirements are treated as separate problems.
Design inputs keep changing
Demand, route, survey and permitting inputs arrive at different times, which creates uncontrolled redesign.
Construction packs are incomplete
Plans may look finished while splicing, quantities, assumptions, wayleaves or data structure are still unresolved.
GIS handover comes too late
Design data is often rebuilt for operations because the required schema was not considered at the start.
A controlled delivery workflow
From first review to operational handover.
Discovery and design rules
Confirm scope, source data, demand, architecture, standards, approvals and the target GIS or inventory model.
HLD and MLD development
Evaluate serving areas, routes, capacity, topology, constraints and cost drivers with documented assumptions.
LLD and construction package
Produce detailed routes, structures, splicing, quantities, permits and construction ready records with controlled review cycles.
Change control and handover
Reconcile approved changes, prepare structured datasets and document how the final records enter operations.
What you receive
Specific deliverables, agreed before rollout.
Final formats and acceptance criteria are confirmed during discovery and tested during the pilot.
- High level, medium level and low level designs
- Route, structure, chamber, duct and cable records
- Splicing plans and connectivity schedules
- Bill of quantities and bill of materials
- Wayleave and permitting documentation support
- Design assumptions, exceptions and change registers
- GIS and CAD datasets aligned to the agreed schema
- Quality review records and handover package
Operational outcomes
What should be different after the work.
Construction clarity
Teams receive a controlled package that links drawings, quantities, connectivity and source data.
Fewer handoff gaps
Engineering, survey, GIS and delivery decisions remain traceable across each design stage.
Operations ready data
The final structure is planned for downstream GIS and inventory use, not treated as an afterthought.
Network inventory integration
Design for the system that will operate the network.
SunVizion and network records
Prepare, reconcile and integrate network design and inventory data for SunVizion and the agreed GIS or operational platform. Keep structure, duct, cable, connectivity and asset identifiers consistent.
Controlled data exchange
Use agreed schemas, API or file interfaces, FME and Python validation to connect CAD, GIS and inventory. Interface access and platform configuration are confirmed before implementation.
Operational ownership
Document mapping rules, rejected records, reconciliation results and update responsibilities so construction change and As-Built handover do not create a separate data rebuild.
Platforms and methods
Tools selected around the operating requirement.

Handover is part of delivery
Your team receives more than final files.
Handover includes the agreed source files, final data model, drawing register, exceptions, quality records and a walkthrough of the update process. Your team should know what was delivered, what changed and how to maintain it.
Common buyer questions
What teams usually need to clarify.
These answers describe our normal approach. The project review confirms what applies to your environment.
Do you support both greenfield and brownfield programmes?
Yes. Greenfield work begins with demand, route and architecture decisions. Brownfield work adds existing asset uncertainty, survey reconciliation and stricter change control. We scope those risks separately.
Can you work alongside an EPC contractor or internal design team?
Yes. We define interfaces, naming rules, review stages and acceptance criteria so each party knows what it owns and how information moves.
What inputs are needed to start?
Typical inputs include the target area, demand data, existing network records, design standards, construction constraints, survey information and the required output schema. Missing inputs are logged during discovery.
Can As-Built delivery be included?
Yes. We can connect the design package to field capture, construction change control and structured As-Built handover.

Review the workflow, data and next delivery decision with our team.
Share one representative work package, dataset or stalled workflow. We will identify the missing inputs, acceptance gates and smallest pilot that can produce a useful decision.
