WWW.WISPA.ORG 19 www.bekabusinessmedia.com DAY 2 Global Twin Cuts Data Clutter with WISDM Highly accurate wireless mapping for WISPs saves money, helps grow sales and improves operational efficiency. However, poor and incomplete clutter data such as USGS LiDAR limits the value and accuracy. With the introduction of Global Twin’s detailed clutter layer into WISDM, users get high performance as well as high accuracy with no additional cost. “WISDM users are used to embedding service availability checks on their websites, precisely seeing which addresses they can serve and exploring new areas to build. High precision clutter data allows installers to see where to mount equipment on buildings can speed up installations by an hour which really helps productivity, not to mention preventing those annoying and expensive failed install visits,” said David Burns, CEO of WISDM and chairman of UKWISPA. “But high-resolution clutter data with the latest tree growth and housing are essential requirements to get the most from WISDM,” he continued. “We are delighted that we have now released Global Twin and better still, been able to include it within the subscription cost of WISDM. Where USGS LiDAR runs out or is too old to be useful, Global Twin takes over.” Global Twin is the result of years of R&D which, like WISDM, uses cutting-edge underlying technology such as GPU accelerated computing and home-grown generative AI technology. This enables it to render very high-quality 3D surface data anywhere and everywhere. Global Twin is in use with WISDM internationally, as well as in California, Colorado, Florida, Kansas, Maine, Texas and Wyoming where the technology was developed and tested. Data are being released globally this month. m For more information visit wirelesscoverage.com, or meet us in person at WISPAPALOOZA, booth 248. Rural Telecommunications of America Inc. (RTA), debuts its internet speed tester, the GIGOMETER, through Thursday at WIPSAPALOOZA. The GIGOMETER is a cloud-based tool that measures internet speed in gigabits per second (Gbps). RTA believes it is the first online tool to provide speed measurements in gigabits (Gbps) versus the traditional megabits (Mbps). Visit www.gigometer.net. The GIGOMETER is being displayed in RTA’s booth 201 and on the box of Zane Smith’s #38 NASCAR Craftsman Front Row Motorsports Ford F-150 showcasing RTA’s commitment to delivering the fastest and most reliable internet speeds to its customers. RTA plans a white-labeled version of the GIGOMETER later this year. For more information, go to www.rtatel.com RTA Debuts GIGOMETER
