Red Yellow Green

Know before you go. We collect fresh 360° imagery, use the imagery to take pole measurements, and tell you which poles you can attach to and which ones you can’t.

Hundreds of miles and thousands of poles weekly.

What is Red Yellow Green?

Know which utility poles you can attach to and which ones are going to be a pain, in days not months. Tailored to make ready engineering efforts, Red Yellow Green is a utility pole data collection and analysis service.

Red

Power make ready: Based on NESC clearance rules, utility poles and midspans would require power attachments to be moved in order to attach new fiber.

Yellow

Comm. make ready: Based on NESC clearance rules, utility poles and midspans would require existing comm. wires to be moved in order to make room for a new attachment.

Green

No make ready: Based on NESC clearance rules, the existing poles have enough room to attach to without make ready engineering.

The Red Yellow Green Process

Driving a vehicle with a 360° camera, we perform utility pole data collection for entire cities in days. Our data fielding services are offered nationwide.
Once collected, the imagery is processed and uploaded to Azmyth™, our pole mapping & measurement software. 25,000 pictures uploaded per hour (~142 miles of imagery).
With fresh imagery, our team shoots pole locations, attachment heights, and midspan clearances in Azmyth™. We then apply NESC clearance rules to determine the make ready engineering status of utility poles and their midspans.
Pole and midspan statuses:
- RED = power make ready required
- YELLOW = comm. make ready required
- GREEN = no make ready required
Our make ready engineering solutions are fast and the rules we use are customizable.
We send you a detailed report with pole locations, measurements, make ready status, and more. Customizable file formats (KML, GeoJSON, Shapefile, etc.).
