Intergraph is enabling utilities and communications organizations to better design, administer and maintain fiber networks with the launch of G/Technology Fiber Optic Works version 1.1.

The new fiber network management tool from Intergraph expands fiber network information access to intranet and field users by introducing new network and analysis capabilities for Intergraph NetViewer and MobileViewer.

Intergraph is a global provider of engineering and geospatial software that enables customers to visualize complex data. Its G/Technology Fiber Optic Works effectively streamlines the management of fiber optic infrastructure for utilities, communications providers, municipalities and state agencies who are implementing a public or private fiber network.

The new version offers an enterprise data environment that includes business rules, design tools, relationship models and data validation to support crucial business workflows.

Fiber Optic Works 1.1 extends review and reporting of fiber network information to users using local area network (LAN) or disconnected in the field mode. The new release allows users to generate, edit and review alternative schematic representations of selected portions of the fiber network.

"We are pleased to introduce our newest addition to G/Technology, Fiber Optic Works 1.1, into our Security, Government & Infrastructure (SG&I) solution portfolio," said Karen Ball, product manager, Intergraph Corporation. "With fiber networks steadily becoming more important in the communications industry and critical to smart grid initiatives in the utilities industry, Fiber Optic Works 1.1 provides a configurable COTS solution to meet the design and asset management needs of those implementing their own fiber optic infrastructure."
