About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals.

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on:

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

CoStar Group Acquires Ag-Analytics, Augmenting Land.com Services and Capabilities

Land.com will incorporate valuations on 2.8 million parcels of land provided by Ag-Analytics’ AcreValue platform

CoStar Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSGP) (“CoStar Group,” “we” or “our”), a leading provider of online real estate marketplaces, information and analytics in the commercial and residential property markets, today announced that it has acquired agricultural data company Ag-Analytics. The strategic acquisition of Ag-Analytics will specifically enhance CoStar Group’s Land.com platform, marking the company’s extension into the agricultural land sector. This acquisition will strengthen the data capabilities for farmland, forestland, recreational, and other rural properties through Ag-Analytics’ cutting-edge AcreValue platform, unlocking new opportunities for land and ag-focused institutional investors and lenders.

AcreValue provides an innovative outlet for farmers, land investors, land professionals and landowners to gather the most accurate insights and data on agricultural land. With the most comprehensive set of land data in one easy-to-use site, AcreValue provides the fastest way to prospect and learn about any piece of land, comp sales and its current valuations. AcreValue covers the 48 contiguous states, serving as the leading solution for farmland and non-residential land analytics in the U.S. and catering to multiple segments of the land market – including farmer operators, non-operating landowners, and land professionals such as bankers, brokers, appraisers, energy companies, and investors.

Land.com, CoStar Group’s premier marketplace for discovering, buying, and selling rural real estate, will incorporate AcreValue’s reports and analytics into all applicable listings. These reports include geographical data, soil composition, elevations, historical and other information. With 1.5 million registered users on AcreValue and data on tens of millions of parcels, this integration will provide even greater exposure and deeper insights for clients.

Ag-Analytics has a strategic alliance with Farmer Mac, the nation’s secondary market for agricultural credit, where the farm sector real estate debt currently totals $355 billion. Farmer Mac leverages the AcreValue platform as a channel to further their lending market, delivering new opportunities for innovative financing directly to the digital farm gate. This partnership increases efficiency and transparency in the agricultural credit market.

“The addition of Ag-Analytics services into the Land.com platform is yet another example of how CoStar Group blends best in class platforms and leading analytics to support real estate owners, brokers, operators, and professionals,” said CoStar Group Founder and Chief Executive Officer Andy Florance. “We have identified a massive market potential, with farm sector real estate alone representing a $3.4 trillion asset class, creating a range of opportunities to maximize revenue and provide increased value for our clients. Together, we will set a new standard for data-driven decision-making in the land and real estate market. I look forward to working with the Ag-Analytics team on these incredible opportunities.”

"We are excited to join CoStar and be part of its industry-leading real estate network," says Joshua Woodard, Founder of Ag-Analytics. "AcreValue and Land.com bring strong synergies in land data and analytics, expanding our ability to provide valuable insights and innovative solutions to landowners and buyers."

Ag-Analytics was founded in 2018 and is headquartered in Ithaca, New York.
