Site Information Collection (SI Information)

This step gathers all essential data about the proposed site.

Key Points Collected:

Utilities available: Power supply, fiber connectivity, water, etc.

Location details: GPS coordinates, address, site boundaries

Existing infrastructure: Poles, towers, ducts, manholes, electrical points, buildings

Topography: Elevation, slopes, obstacles, soil type

Access & permissions: Land ownership, right-of-way, restrictions

Environmental factors: Flood zones, trees, high-rise buildings

Includes:

Risk identification: Flooding, access issues, safety concerns

Physical Site Visit: Check actual ground conditions vs drawings

Soil Investigation (if required): Soil bearing capacity, strata profile

Structural Investigation: Condition of existing structures, load capacity

Geotechnical tests: SPT, Borelog, Plate load test

Utility Mapping: Existing cables, pipelines, ducts
