Groundhawk Guide for Documenters
Before the Build
Before a project is started, the documenter together with the project manager should take care of four things:
- The project is created in the Groundhawk portal (+Add Site)
- Network Owner has been chosen to ensure the correct documentation format
- The project route plan is uploaded to Groundhawk - Instructions can be found here
- The project export format, specific site extra attributes etc. are defined with Groundhawk
The following configurations can be made to a site:
- Basic site information
- Site export format
- Access rights (which field user can see and record to the sites)
- Custom cables and protections. A site can have specific or added cables/protections
- Extra attributes for trenches typically include cover material and type of network etc.
During the Build
During the build, it makes sense for the documenter to regularly review the incoming documentation and give feedback to the project manager if there seems to be missing information, bad photos, etc.
Documentation can be started during the build. Keep in mind that, by default, the site map data contains the full site, meaning that if you document in increments, you need to ensure avoidance of duplicating imports.
Groundhawk Support is ready to help you at any point. Reach out if you have a question!
After the Build
Before end of the build, ensure the team really has mapped everything
Archive when documentation is finished the site can be archived
User Export: use this feature to export the site fully or between any time period. For more information check out our configuration page
