The realization of today's telecommunication networks is a challenging task. Network architectures are constantly changing to meet new requirements for many new and exciting services and applications. As a result of these added new requirements, new types and mixes of traffic profiles are being introduced into these networks. To facilitate these needs, TeleCAD-GIS was developed to aid in the planning, development (design), optimization and traffic prediction, documenting and network maintenance processes. It is designed to handle many types of circuit network systems and features a powerful graphics and analysing capabilities. The software uses well-established, iterative prediction concepts, while implemented network systems were modeled using real data supplied by many regional telecom operators.

TeleCAD-GIS is a scalable, Autodesk-based, CAD/GIS solution for both national and regional (local) telecommunications infrastructure networks planning, design, documenting and maintenance. It's specifically suitable for telecommunications service providers and their outsourcing partners throughout 3rd World and developing countries as it offers standard, compatible and low-cost solutions powered by widely adopted and worlwide proven technologies.

"General features:" Provides quick, efficient and valuable means for modern OSP (OutSide Plant) copper-based and fiber-optics telecommunications networks design and further implementation. By definition, OSP represents "all telecom equipment and services related to the network installation from the exchange Main Distribution Frame (MDF) or Optical Distribution Frame (ODF) to the subscriber premises (or to other MDF/ODF)".

"Available modules:" TeleCAD-GIS has several software modules dealing with various areas of customer-owned outside plant design; OSP right-of-way and route design; OSP space design; underground, direct-buried, and aerial plant design; OSP cabling hardware and OSP grounding, bonding and electrical protection systems; Automated switching and support systems design, etc. Each software module provides customized tools for specific network topology design, dimensioning, analysis and simulation.

"Compatibility and Reusability:" Applications maintains direct reusability of processings and resulting data within Telcos sub-systems (ERP, SAP...), as a first milestone towards successful corporate system maintenance, exploitation and management. Compatibility of TeleCAD-GIS processings within wide spectrum of national-level cadastral databases and services (geodesy, spatial planning, other infrastructure systems...).

"Other features:"
* Offers rich and updatable catalogues of standards, copper and fiber-optic cables, symbols, materials, passive and active network elements, cable shafts, conduits and ducts, etc.
* "Live Update" option keeps users up to date with regional Telcos' and producers' databases of standards, materials and components.
* Available tools for a wide range of OSP network analyses and optimizations, specifications and BOM production, network scaling, cost fitting and predictions, etc.
* Specifically suited optional tools for geodetic plans and cadastral maps precise callibration, georeferencing, indexing and storing for further corporate use.

TeleCAD-GIS Enterprise

Highly scalable and customizable Autodesk-based enterprise solution for national and large regional telecommunications infrastructure cadastre planning, design, documenting, maintenance and corporate management.

TeleCAD-GIS Enterprise solution was designed using Enterprise Information Architecture (EIA) standards, requirements and guidelines. It's based on business functions defined by Telco's Enterprise Business Architecture and accompanying Business Model, extending across corporate boundaries.

"General features:" New advancements in architecture tools and methodologies, such as visualization and Web publishing, provide improved IT analysis and communication. An Oracle-based GIS repository acts as a central place where data is stored and maintained and includes information about business processes, data and systems, including data elements, processes, inputs, outputs and interrelationships. Most importantly, the repository forms an integrated strategic information base that supports traceability of data down to the technical or source level. Generally, information users or stakeholders receive software tools divided into three levels: Strategic (investment strategy and portfolio management), Operational (business process support) and Technical (targeting systems and applications).

"Scalability:" TeleCAD-GIS Enterprise is a scalable tool with precision and functionality of AutoCAD, combined with power and capacity of [http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=971522 Autodesk GIS Design Server] . It possesses high level of data integration by exploiting Autodesk and many other GIS-based Import/Export functions. It offers extraordinary possibilities for thematic maps creation. It also offers communication with "Web-based" and mobile GIS solutions. Support to Oracle 9i Spatial makes the access to large quantities of stored spatial data easy and efficient. It possesses advanced tools for spatial analyses and maps creation. And, finally, TeleCAD-GIS Enterprise is an easy-to-learn and easy-to-use tool with quite simple and understandable user interface.

TeleCAD-GIS fits into the overall information technology vision of modern utilities through the use of open databases, industry-standard programming environments, and .NET software architecture. It leverages technology that is configurable and easily aligned to multiple processes using a unified strategic platform. It provides a scalable architecture for the full range of utility business needs and can be used for a single departmental installation or as a corporate enterprise configuration for creating, managing, and disseminating utility information.
