TRANSMISSION & DISTRIBUTION MODELING

15 Minutes Per Pole

Enhance field data acquisition, processing workflows, and modeling precision. Minimize onboarding time, scale field and back-office operations, and maintain consistent data accuracy—meeting or exceeding NESC compliance with every deliverable.

1. Setup
Initialize GPS and acquire satellite lock. Capture ground control points and other points of interest as you survey the site.
2. Capture
Capture everything you see from one screen, while also tracking your path and tagging features. People and vehicles are automatically filtered.
3. Process
Upload captured site data to the cloud. Looq’s proprietary software automatically applies Post-Processed Kinematic (PPK) to improve geolocation accuracy, builds precise, sub-centimeter, georeferenced 3D and 2D models, and extracts critical semantic and geometric features
4. Analyze
From the 3D environment, easily capture and label pole locations, heights, diameters, attachment points, span lengths and ground clearances for pole loading and other analyses.
5. Export
Export imagery, point clouds, vector linework, and metadata in standard formats including DWG, DXF, LAS/LAZ, CSV, LandXML, and PLS for seamless integration into PLA and T&D engineering workflows.

The real magic is the AI-enabled software. We can automate 3D modeling and seamlessly interact with digital twins enhancing the collaboration with our client and helping to streamline their decisions. This all happens in a dashboard where everyone can view, analyze, track, and hand off the project.
Alex Richards, PECEO, Aquawolf
The platform has become an indispensable engineering tool in our fielding tool kit enabling our design teams to capture highly detailed and accurate field conditions in the absence of existing survey data. We have been able to fill holes in our existing basemaps quickly and reliably with rich data which keeps design moving forward.

Featured Capabilities

Project Setup & Capture

Real-Time Visual Confirmation

The qCam mobile interface displays a live 2D map of your path alongside the camera's field of view, enabling you to select points of interest as you move ensuring complete and accurate coverage.

Processed Outputs

AI reconstructed outputs include intelligent, high-resolution 2D datasets; panoramic and orthomosaic imagery; and 3D point clouds.

Classification

Validate and refine key pole data—attachment heights, distances, and angles—before exporting to pole load analysis (PLA) tools, ensuring accurate inputs and minimizing rework.

Analysis

Measurement

From the web environment, establish a network of precisely located points grounded in known surveyed coordinates, to ensure seamless alignment with existing CAD drawings, GIS datasets, and spatial models.

Engineering-Ready Assets

Transform simple field captures into accurate engineering-ready asset models. Produce standardized, repeatable inputs and improve data quality through standardized attributes and controlled validation. Identify and organize all critical pole components—top and bottom elevations, cross arms, attachment points, insulators, guy wires, span lengths, clearances, and asset classifications—ensuring fast, structured export into PLA tools with minimal manual input.

Visualization

Visualizing 2D and 3D views of a captured site enables you to remotely assess infrastructure details, reduce field visits and accelerate decision-making.

Export

From the web environment, export data in standard formats for use with PLA tools (PLSCADD, SPIDACalc, O'Calc) and CAD environments (AutoCAD, Inventor, MicroStation).

Qualus Proves Potential of New Pole Modeling Workflow

Using hand-held photogrammetry and leading PLA tools, Qualus LLC, formerly Aquawolf, piloted a new fielding and modeling approach to a large western utility that produced significantly more accurate and conservative assessments of pole usage. This new process reduced engineering time by 60-75% and identified that the utility could minimize over-building saving millions annually while enhancing infrastructure resilience and reducing costs for ratepayers.
