GIS utilities suffer from old infrastructure and changing needs of the area due to various reasons. The Utilities GIS industry solution encompasses the following:
Water, wastewater, and storm water utilities keep track of distribution, collection, and drainage networks as well as related planning and customer care. Magnasoft uses spatial database effectively to reap the benefits of using GIS to manage infrastructure and assets, and extends these benefits for improving planning, customer care, and administrative processes.
We provides a common platform for accessing entire business data, updating network information, integrating work orders, finding customer information, or reporting for our customers. With built-in spatial analysis tools, customers can support network tracing as well as analyze development trends affecting future demand. Visualization and mapping features give you an overall, connected view of your network in relation to your customers and surrounding infrastructure.
Application of GIS as host of utility processes is helping utilities unify their systems by integrating information from many sources, both internal and external, into a common framework. By using common geographic language, utility managers discover new insights that can transform into tangible business results i.e. lower costs, improved asset utilization, and quicker customer contact.
Past experience of Magnasoft in utilities vertical GIS implementation has provided in-depth understanding across the processes. The processes are:
Workflow and process models: Identification of the master process and sub processes that drive business for major
stakeholders in the utility: the customer, the shareholder, the community, and the employee.
Data models: Utility data models describe the data, data relationships, and behaviors that are needed for the
workflows in a logical and disciplined way.
Data: Actual data that details the utility land base, customer locations, and infrastructure.
Output products: The tools that people use to make decisions, do work, and communicate. Integration framework: Allows
corporate systems to be visualized along with location, often in the form of a map.
Physical architecture: All the hardware, operating systems, processes, tools, DBMSs, and networks that make the whole
thing work.
