IQGeo has completed the acquisition of Deepomatic, integrating AI computer vision technology into IQGeo’s geospatial software to power real-time intelligence – and move towards autonomous networks.
Richard Pettim CEO of IQGeo explained: “This acquisition is about more than optimising tasks in the field, though that’s already a huge win for network operators.
“It sets the stage for what comes next. Real-time data and imagery from the field becomes the fuel for tomorrow’s intelligent network models. It will drive how the industry plans, builds and runs networks, right up to the point where they start running themselves.”
Already deployed by Virgin Media O2, Deepomatic’s technology reduces manual checks and accelerates closeout of network build and maintenance tasks.
With its integration into IQGeo’s geospatial network management software, telecom and utility operators can now keep updated digital twins based on verified field data captured in near-real time.
“Virgin Media O2 is making strategic strides in geospatial intelligence,” said Kerry Casey-Foulkes, Director of Transformation Enablement at Virgin Media O2.
“IQGeo and Deepomatic are supporting us to enhance field collaboration, accelerate service delivery and strengthen the quality of the data that underpins our decision-making.”
With the acquisition now complete, IQGeo will work with customers to embed computer vision into field processes.
