Did you know that ...
- GIS data is essential for fibre deployment - From design and civil construction to fibre splicing and testing.
- Actavo developed its own scripted system - Which led to high expectations and complexity.
- Avineon Tensing conducted an independent system evaluation - Focused on performance and scalability.
- The analysis yielded concrete optimisations - Including quick wins and strategic future advice.
The challenge - Scalable infrastructure
For a large fibre-optic project in rural Ireland, Actavo developed a proprietary GIS application in ArcGIS Online. Rapid growth and increasing expectations created the need for an independent system review. The question: is the current setup scalable, stable and ready for the future?
The Solution – The FME Platform
To address the growing complexity of agricultural data, Agri-EPI partnered with Avineon Tensing to design and implement a robust integration solution using Safe Software’s FME Platform. Avineon Tensing developed tailored FME Workspaces for four key data sources. And configured FME Flow to automate and centralise daily data synchronisation into a central PostgreSQL database. Creating a future-ready foundation for informed, data-driven agriculture.
The result - Insight and Direction
The evaluation gave Actavo a clear and substantiated picture of both immediate areas for improvement and strategic growth opportunities. By gaining insight into the technical performance, user experience and degree of scalability, Actavo can make informed choices for further development. The concrete recommendations provide guidance for making the system more robust, optimising the management structure and better aligning the solution with future projects. Thus, this evaluation is not just a snapshot, but a solid basis for sustainable growth and innovation.
Key outcomes:
- Quick wins - Immediate improvement points for speed and ease of use
- Future vision - Clear advice for sustainable scalability
- Team structure - Recommendations for efficient support and management
- Functional growth - Suggestions for expansion with new functionality
