NATE is a non-profit trade association dedicated to providing a unified voice for companies in the diverse tower and communications infrastructure construction, service and maintenance industries. Optelos recently became a member of NATE in order to better align with the needs of telecom maintenance service organizations who are increasingly adopting drone technology in order to efficiently identify asset conditions and problems during cell tower and other telecom infrastructure inspections.
