Utility LoGIStics supports utilities in performing daily mapping operations for water and wastewater systems. An extension to ESRI®’s ArcMap® 9.3, Utility LoGIStics is a comprehensive toolset for creating and maintaining GIS data. It provides users with a complete, faultless inventory of water and wastewater infrastructure systems. By leveraging a utility’s existing geodatabase model, Utility LoGIStics is the best solution for the efficient management of water and wastewater systems.
How it Works
Utility LoGIStics provides users with the tools to consistently create, edit, delete, and validate features within a water and wastewater network. Creating and managing water/wastewater network features such as mains, fittings, valves, and hydrants is simplified through a series of pop-up prompts and forms. Guided forms reduce the time required to update information. This step-by-step approach minimizes required mouse clicks by automatically adjusting editing settings on the fly (for example, snapping, selectable layers, and target layer).
