QROI Network Services Inc. and SiteSee have created a strategic alliance and formed a partnership to bring digital transformation technology catering to telecom tower owners, both mobile tower companies and mobile network operators, in the Philippines. SiteSee is an Australian technology company that develops world-leading digital twin software for the wireless telecoms industry in USA, Europe, and Asia. The platform provides an end-to-end solution with the highest accuracy that is beneficial for asset management decisions by capturing the actual tower data in real-time, such as antenna type, position, elevation, degree of tilt, and other essential data on the first attempt. SiteSee’s AI engine automatically generates important data such as equipment comparison, EME radiation plumes, rust, and bolt-hole anomalies reports. The software can visualize all physical components in detail, gather critical information, and analyze the data in different areas with less time and effort but with higher accuracy.
“QNSI has transformed to use drones and digital twin software as another ‘tool-in-the-box’ to provide much-improved services to its customers. With experienced field teams deployed across the Philippines, hundreds of highly accurate 3D reality models and asset management reports can be produced monthly. AI technology and autonomous drone flights provide obvious benefits over conventional ‘climb-down’ survey and maintenance work in the field. Using SiteSee’s digital platform technology, QNSI is changing the landscape of telecom tower asset audit and inspection.” said Matti Jokinen, QNSI Director.
Following a brief drone pilot training course and CAAP certification, field operations teams are equipped with off-the-shelf drones that use SiteSee’s autonomous flight software. Capturing a cell tower takes less than 60 minutes, and upon uploading the data, SiteSee AI technology builds a highly accurate 3D model and AI analysis reports. It only takes a snap to get an accurate, reliable result. The seamless integration of these technologies into conventional workflows with existing staff brings the scalability and affordability that our joint customers require.
SiteSee’s Customer Self-Serve (CSS) module maximizes cell tower asset utilization and revenue growth. The platform offers instant feedback on the feasibility of potential site designs and activities, allowing customers to quickly determine which sites can be co-located and what additional structural capacity is available for proposed upgrades. By reducing the process from months to hours, this technology leads to effective decision-making that yields improved revenue and profits, which impacts earlier revenue through fast-tracked lease contract signings and additional annuity revenue.
QNSI currently operates the largest fleet of field services teams nationwide equipped with drones, further scalable from a current peak capacity of over 250 towers a month (QNSI pilot at work, western Visayas, QNSI – April 2023).

“The CSS module also includes features like live interactive designs and structural load configurations, allowing informed decisions and avoiding costly and time-consuming engineering iterations and stakeholder engagement. Data integration from the customer’s engineering models allows for real-time predictive engineering analysis of all co-location proposals. Including EME projections based on radiation hazards specifically for 5G output is also critical for planning and compliance. By addressing public safety concerns related to radiation hazards, customers can ensure that their operations comply with regulations and maintain public trust.” SiteSee Director, David Pash, said.
The partnership plans to expand its complete end-to-end site survey and 3D digital transformation solution to other countries in Asia soon, fortifying its position as a global leader in digital transformation technology for the telecommunications industry.
