Tower Case Studies

Tower Locations

Convenient and practical tower siting is needed to enhance coverage, increase capacity, decrease network load, and enhance spectral efficiency. Additionally, the growing internet of things has many researchers and analysts predicting the number of wireless technology devices will increase exponentially over the next few years. Consequently, the traditional tower site is being reinvented to meet these demands. Vertex works with innovative telecommunication technologies and creative construction solutions to meet the needs of a variety of sites.

Golf Courses
Towers can be placed on golf courses in out of play areas and disguised to blend in with the existing landscape. In this example, the tower was disguised as a flagpole to satisfy aesthetic concerns. Towers can also be camouflaged as trees. Vertex can help determine the zoning, permitting, and construction restrictions for your property and recommend a solution to optimize the value of your property.

Schools
Schools are optimally located near where people live and work making them ideal locations to meet increased wireless demands. These tower sites can improve coverage for the campus and surrounding community while providing a positive revenue stream for the school. School athletic fields can be good tower sites. In this example, the tower was disguised as a flagpole to satisfy aesthetic concerns.

Churches
Because of their height, church steeples can be good tower sites. In this example, the monopole tower was disguised as a cross to coordinate with the building’s religious expression. Vertex can help determine the zoning, permitting, and construction restrictions for your site and recommend a solution to optimize the value of your property.

Municipal
Existing water towers and tall buildings on municipal properties can be cost-effective tower sites for municipalities. Citizens benefit from improved wireless service, while the city or county gains a non-tax revenue source to pay for various government services.

Private
If you own private land or tall buildings, you may have a good tower site. Vertex can help determine the zoning, permitting, and construction restrictions for your site and recommend a solution to optimize the value of your property.
