What it was like at fiberdays 2025
For the first time in Frankfurt am Main, fiberdays offered national and international exhibitors, and thus also Dirk and Jochen from Nexiga's team of telco experts, even more space to exchange ideas on fiber optic expansion and the digital infrastructure in Germany thanks to the expansion of the exhibition space.
In addition to classic applications in fiber optic expansion, new topics such as the Green Plaza for sustainable fiber optic and data center concepts and the AI Forum provided space for interesting discussions.
Nexiga presented new applications for planning-relevant geodata in telecommunications - from site selection and route planning to capacity evaluation.

A special highlight
The newly created LoD2 Viewer. It can be used to visualize buildings and environments in 3D - ideal for precise network planning and displaying complex expansion scenarios.
Relevance of house data
As always, the Nexiga house database, which provides extensive features on all identified houses in Germany, was at the center of many discussions.
-
Number of households and companies per address point
-
Parcels with detailed land use and house perimeters
-
Building type, number of floors, building use
-
Technology scores, online streaming affinity, Sinus-Milieus
-
Telecommunication types and typical usage behavior
-
Bandwidth already available for every address in Germany
-
and much more...

LoD2 - 3D building models
In general LoD2 data (Level of Detail 2) provide detailed 3D building models that take roof shapes and pitches into account, for example. These also provide a valuable basis for the precise and efficient planning and implementation of fiber optic expansion:
Planning the cable installation: Detailed building features help plan the optimal route for laying fiber optic cable. This can take into account obstacles such as buildings and other structures, enabling a more efficient installation.
Cost calculation: With precise information about the building heights and shapes, the costs for the installation can be better estimated. This includes the required length of cable and the number of connection points required.
Access points: LoD2 data can help identify the best access points for the fiber optic cables, especially for complex roof structures. This also applies to the expansion of network level 4, which starts at the house connection and extends to the junction boxes in the individual apartments or offices.
Simulation and visualization: The data makes it possible to simulate and visualize the planned installations in a 3D environment. This can help to identify and rectify potential problems at an early stage.
