Automation driving safety and efficiency in essential streetworks for Northern Gas Networks

1Spatial, the global geospatial software and solutions company and Northern Gas Networks (NGN) have been working together to create a prototype system to automate the creation of compliant traffic management plans at the click of a button. 1Spatial worked with NGN and the Energy Innovation Centre (EIC) to build a prototype system combining OS data and 1Spatial’s automation technology. The system reduced the time taken to create a compliant traffic management plan down from days to minutes. 1Spatial is currently refining the prototype system so that it can be adopted by other utilities, local authorities or any company engaged in streetwork excavation. www.1spatial.com
