INTERNATIONAL

BELL SMART DRAWING PROJECT

Using AutoCAD, approximately 1005 central office (CO) equipment “drawings” were reviewed, updated and processed for consolidation into composite floor-level drawing files. Excel spreadsheets were populated with floor space equipment attribute information that were derived from the Smart Block library provided by Bell Canada.

CENTRAL BANK OF LIBYA
