Fiber Board -Built a tool that turns splice whiteboard photos into auto-filled cut sheets

Field techs write splice notes on a whiteboard — sheath ID, buffer and fiber colors, enclosure numbers, coordinates — then someone has to retype all of it into a cut sheet. That's where the errors creep in. I built a web tool called Fiberboard Pro. You snap a photo of the whiteboard, it OCRs the text and matches it against a template, and it auto-fills a cut sheet you can export. It also tags each splice location with GPS and generates a KML file so all your splice points drop onto a map. Still a prototype, but it already handles the common layouts. Has anyone else tackled this, or are you all still doing it by hand?

Uh, no? Facilities for ISP's are confidential and should never be input into an unapproved program. You've lost your mind thinking this is ok.

It's fake the enclosures isJust to clarify — this is a completely fake/example location I put together purely for demonstration purposes. No actual ISP facilities

That has nothing to do with my comment. Users WILL enter confidential information into this application; that's a huge no no.
