Happy GIS Day!
GIS has the power to change the world (that’s why we love our jobs so much!). Some changes are grand in scale, like its ability to spatially monitor the spread of COVID-19, help scientists predict the ongoing impacts of climate change, and assist firefighters battle massive wildland fires.
For our clients, the positive impacts of GIS may be smaller in scale, but they are still invaluable. Like how AssetAlly makes the day-to-day lives of municipal staff significantly more efficient by providing access to dynamic asset information in the field, using work orders to schedule and prioritize internal/external tasks across departments, and providing high-impact visuals for stakeholder presentations.
This GIS day, we’re encouraging AssetAlly users to make the most out of their GIS capabilities by tracking and finalizing this year’s routine maintenance. This might include:
Hydrant flushing and inspections
Valve exercising and maintenance
Finalizing work orders
Outfall and other storm water BMP inspections
Sanitary sewer cleaning/televising and manhole inspections
Updating assets inventories in newly developed areas. (i.e. signs, trees, water, sanitary, storm, electric, etc.)
And more!
Using your GIS to capture the efforts put forth by your staff in 2020 will help your municipality start 2021 off on the right foot with fully updated records and clear priorities.
