The IKE4 field data collection unit from ikeGPS is a comprehensive solution that incorporates the latest mobile hardware and software technologies. It is used for measuring and locating utility poles for aerial fiber deployments, joint-use applications and construction of aerial outside plant.

The solution combines hardware, an Android app and cloud software service. The IKE4 device features a hardware design that utilises the latest mobile technologies to produce a high-performance and low-power field device using Google’s Android mobile operating system. The app, IKE Field, contains specialised utility pole data collection and measurement tools for pole heights, wire spans, attachment, GPS location and other field data collection tools. Photos and data collected in the field are uploaded wirelessly to IKE Office, a cloud-based software service used to create and deploy custom data collection forms, measure heights of attachments from the photos captured by IKE Field, validate quality assurance and quality control processes, and store photos and corresponding data for long-term archiving and retrieval.

IKE Integration enables users to create reports and directly integrate data into applications or enterprise databases. Report output formats include JSON, KMZ , PDF and more. Direct integration includes SPIDA Software’s SPIDACalc pole loading analysis solution and other third-party systems.

The 1.3 MP camera delivers clear and accurate pole measurements from every photo and the 4.8″ capacitive multitouch screen offers outdoor screen readability. Wireless connectivity means that the device is always connected for uploading data straight from the field or in the office.
