Geo Based Resource Management

GRM – Geo Based Resource Management System makesit easy and simple to have all infrastructure elements ona map, base decisions on real data and update yourinfrastructure in real time.

Nowadays, a GRM system becomes a tool of utmostimportance in the activity of a company who’s gotinfrastructure to manage.

DEFINITION

2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 2

WHY USE GRM?

Companies with infrastructure to manage are familiar with a series of problems.

Issues with paper based infrastructure documentation

Extremely limited possibilities when it comes to using paper based data

Infrastructure information is spread in different offices

Single point of knowledge about company infrastructure is non-existent

2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 3

ISSUES

Issues with data collection

There is no standardized strategy for collecting and storing data

GIS data is collected and locked in proprietary software and can’t be extracted

It is impossible to track who created or edited certain data

Issues with data analysis

It is impossible to get the big picture of all infrastructure elements

There is no way for infrastructure operators to make geospatial analysis

There is no way marketing department can benefit from diagrams and reports based on geographical information

2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 4

ISSUES

Issues with general purpose maps (ex: Google Maps and Earth)

There is a big gap in accuracy of the information presented on the map

Often updates of the generic map can jeopardize already existing data

License terms forbid deriving data from public imagery services and using Google Maps for corporate purposes

Issues with generic GIS Software (ex: Arcgis, MapInfo)

Too complex to be operated internally, by non-GIS people

Over-priced and over-qualified software, which original purpose wasn’t corporate infrastructure management but state land survey

HOW TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES?

The solution would be to use a dedicated system, designed toaddress the problems infrastructure operators are faced with.

A solution which can be customized and adapted to suit eachcompany particularly.

A solution which would rise an operator to a new level inmanaging infrastructure related data, and mainly, to GIS maturity.

Such solution would include features like:

SOLUTION FEATURES

Complete ownership over the data, complete traceability and elimination of vendor lock-in

Centralized point of data management for infrastructure related GIS data

Easy digitization and collaborative data collection tools

Big data visualization in graphical way for executives

Assistance for management in making strategic decisions (like network expansions)

SOA integration with existing systems

Simple data extraction in any GIS format

WHAT IS GIS MATURITY?

A GIS maturity level is the stage at which aninfrastructure operator can find themselves inimplementing and using a GIS System

Let’s further look at 3 development levels in detail

2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 8

GIS MATURITY – LEVEL 1 - VISUALIZATION

At the first stage, an operator can simply visualizeGIS data, usually generated by suppliers in web form,CAD files or paper based maps/schemas.

They don’t know and don’t care about coordinatesystems, data models, normalization, versionedgeodatabases, file formats, or any of the otherissues.

At a second maturity stage, operators use more complex GIS data and make best use of it.

Usually this data is bought from cadastral/survey institution or mapping company.

Operators perform mathematical or statistical analysis that answers specific research or business questions that are too unique to be scripted in advance.

GIS MATURITY – LEVEL 2 - ANALYSIS

2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 10

At this stage, the company is creating in-house data and/or enrich geo data that they already have.

The implementing company becomes self-served GIS data providers for every GIS enabled software used internally.

EX: Network operations, radio planning, troubleshooting, network development, geo-enabled marketing, geo-services, telemetry, SCADA.

GIS MATURITY – LEVEL 3 – CREATING AND MAINTAINING DATA

HOW TO REACH GIS MATURITY?

Reaching the third maturity level can be hard and tedious when done with improper software andpartners. Or, it can be simplified and bring more value when implemented by experts.

Our GRMS implementation team can assist your company to reach the highest GIS maturity level.Besides, we will coach you in traversing successfully following phases:

2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 12

GIS MATURITY STEP-BY-STEP

Analysis of your company specifics

comprising data models

determining potential infrastructure related data sources and visualization model

researching interoperability integration needs

GRM adaptation and development if needed

Installing and configuring GRM Server

Start data digitization process from paper based documents or by importing data in the system

can be done by non-GIS personnel

Interoperability integration with other relevant systems

Setup data exports for reuse by various systems and departments

Set up dashboards for executives
