Abstract
Planning an optical fiber network is a complex process. Early draft versions of the networks are usually used to give a rough cost estimation. As this process is already very work intensive, things are getting especially serious when construction is scheduled to start. Permission documents, digging permits and all kind of forms need to be submitted to local authorities. As in many engineering projects, time is key. Whatever helps to simplify and automate work steps, is a big game changer. Especially the creation of permission documents and maps can be a very time consuming process. To create such documents, we have turned to QGIS and after an intensive (always ongoing) process of customization, we are now able to produce dozens of documents with just a few clicks. In our talk we will show a real use case for real projects which are currently in the execution phase in Saxony/Germany. Possible was this development by a strong cooperation of Estonian Fiber OÜ (EST), aastrix GmbH (GER) and Yellow Arrow OÜ (EST).
