The telecom market is at a crossroads. With 5G, IoT, and cloud …
Technology
Harnessing industry-leading technology to deliver data collection, advanced mapping, and efficient telecom engineering from field to finish.
Integrated digital tools for precise data capture and streamlined network design.
Technology at Skyde Solutions connects field and office teams for seamless project execution. With Katapult and IKE, field crews quickly capture accurate data on poles and underground assets, ensuring the design team works with real-time, reliable information.
AutoCAD and ArcGIS then integrate this data into precise technical drawings and geospatial maps, streamlining design, validation, and asset management. This unified workflow reduces errors, speeds up delivery, and keeps every network project compliant and efficient.
GIS Mapping & Field Surveying
We use ESRI ArcGIS and other spatial tools to map existing infrastructure and plan fibre routes with precision. Our GIS workflows streamline planning, environmental considerations, and jurisdictional overlays, reducing delays and rework.
- Right-of-way and route planning
- Spatial database creation and updates
- Utility infrastructure mapping
- As-built documentation in GIS formats (KML, SHP)
Katapult is a field data collection platform designed for telecom and utility projects. It enables crews to capture georeferenced photos and asset details directly from the field. The system streamlines documentation and ensures accurate, real-time data transfer.
How Skyde Uses it?
Skyde field teams use Katapult to record pole, vault, and PED information on-site, providing the design team with comprehensive, up-to-date records. This integration reduces manual errors and accelerates project workflows.
Impact
Accurate field data leads to better design decisions and fewer project delays. Katapult helps Skyde deliver reliable, efficient, and compliant network solutions.
CAD Drafting & Telecom Design
Our CAD team produces detailed, industry-compliant engineering drawings that form the foundation for construction and permitting. We support AutoCAD formats tailored to client standards.
- Fiber route plans & profiles
- Utility pole drawings & modifications
- Make-ready engineering layouts
- Traffic control & MOT plans
- Permit-ready construction drawings.
AutoCAD is the industry standard for technical drafting and design. It enables the creation of detailed construction drawings, schematics, and plan sets. AutoCAD supports collaboration and ensures design accuracy.
How Skyde Uses it?
Skyde engineers use AutoCAD to develop clear, compliant technical drawings for all project stages. The platform integrates field data for accurate, buildable designs.
Impact
Professional drawings streamline permitting and construction, minimizing errors. AutoCAD helps Skyde maintain quality and consistency across every project.
Captures real-time data for poles, vaults and PDEs. Integrates field data into network designs for seamless collaboration between the field crews and design teams.

Pole Loading Analysis (PLA)
To ensure telecom attachments are safe and compliant, we perform structural analysis using O-Calc Pro, Spida, Katapult and other pole loading software.
- Pole load calculations and clearance checks
- Stress & tension analysis.
- Pole remediation recommendations
ArcGIS is a leading GIS platform for mapping, spatial analysis, and asset management. It visualizes, edits, and manages geospatial data in real time. ArcGIS supports comprehensive network planning and operations.
How Skyde Uses it?
Skyde uses ArcGIS to map and update all network assets, integrating field and design data for a unified digital record. This enables efficient asset tracking and project coordination.
Impact
Up-to-date GIS records improve decision-making and regulatory compliance. ArcGIS empowers Skyde to deliver transparent, optimized network solutions.
Cloud-Based Collaboration & Delivery
We operate on cloud platforms that enable real-time updates, version control, and shared design environments. This approach minimizes email clutter and reduces approval cycles.
- Live design review and markup
- Role-based access for teams
- Integrated file versioning
- Transparent workflow tracking
IKE is a specialized tool for utility pole data capture and overhead asset measurement. It collects pole height, attachment, and clearance details with high precision. IKE is widely trusted for aerial fiber and outside plant engineering.
How Skyde Uses it?
Skyde leverages IKE to gather critical pole data for network planning and construction. The tool’s measurements feed directly into engineering workflows for seamless project execution.
Impact
Precise pole data ensures safer, code-compliant designs and reduces rework. IKE supports Skyde in delivering robust, future-ready infrastructure.
Data Collection
Katapult and IKE capture real-time, georeferenced field data for poles, vaults, PEDs, and providing a reliable foundation for design.
Route Planning
ArcGIS enables optimized fiber route design by mapping existing infrastructure and terrain, reducing material use.
Design & Drafting
AutoCAD transforms field data into detailed, construction-ready plans that meet regulatory and industry standards.
Permitting
GIS platforms support the preparation and submission of ROW permits, and crossing plans, ensuring faster approvals.
