4. Benefits
Real-time business and spatial data available in the field in a single, intuitive interface
Increase efficiency by …
eliminating check out / check in of mobile devices
geolocating work tasks and staff
streamlining data entry workflow
sharing photos and notes live from the field
Common platform shared by anyone with internet access and login credentials
Supervisor dashboard with real-time progress monitoring
Why Implement an Online and Mobile Asset Management System?
5. Paper maps
GIS on the desktop
Laptop with VPN
Mobile Devices
Increasing Efficiency and Accessibility
6.
Integrated with GIS
Database security options
On-premise database and application for full control
Business and spatial data in one view
Easy to use interface
Management dashboard
QA/QC options

Key Considerations of the
Asset Management System
7. Key Considerations
There is no disconnected editing option, but our IT department ran Mobile Pulse and found all areas in the City limits have good cell coverage. In one building we still needed to add Wi-Fi.

GIS Integration
15. Many of the Security Settings and
Admin Tools are Web-based
We add Users to Roles and choose Security Settings
16.
Request for new data collection will be created for GIS staff using Cartegraph OMS with geolocation
Trimble GeoXH 6000 with real time correction from CompassTools base station
Import data into SDE version, QC and post to default
New record will be automatically created in Cartegraph OMS
Signs and Storm Channels: iPad GPS or heads-up digitize from aerial photograph
Keep in mind: topology must be maintained in GIS
New Spatial Data Collection
17. 1. Citizen Request comes in by smart phone or web geolocated
4. Task is Geolocated
2. Request Uploads to Database
3. Supervisor converts request to a task
5. Photos, notes, and completed work record upload to Database
6. Supervisor responds to citizen on the web
Citizen Request Portal Workflow
18. YourGov on the Web (https://yourgov.cartegraph.com/)
YourGov iPad APP
Example Citizen Requests
20. Cartegraph iPad App
List of Geolocated Tasks
Sort Tasks by Priority, Date, or Proximity to your current location using the iPad’s onboard GPS
21. Cartegraph iPad App
Inspections – Photos
Take a photo and easily upload to database, linked to the asset
22. Cartegraph iPad App
Time - Resources
Add Labor, Equipment and Material costs to a job
23. Costs
iPads
Cellular Data Plans
Esri and Cartegraph Annual Maintenance ELA - already covered for desktop applications Benefits
Time: eliminate duplicate data entry and paper work orders
Information: real-time access to work progress, current asset information, photos, and documents
Fuel: fewer trips to the office to gather and share data
Less training because the interface is more intuitive
No software installation on local computers
Common platform across the organization
Improved response time and follow-up to citizens * A true cost/benefit analysis will be prepared after full implementation is complete.
Cost / Benefit*
24.
Add ArcGIS for Server base maps
Continue analyzing cell coverage and connection speed; requested disconnected editing option
Add pavement markings, more storm assets, parking lots, and sidewalks
Develop more reporting and analysis tools
Build preventative maintenance plans and automated task creation
Multiple device management – free trial of AirWatch by VMware
Requested Active Directory support
Next Steps
25. Goal: Shared Platform of Spatial and Business Data on Mobile Devices and the Web
Web-based

26. Things to Keep in Mind
Appoint a champion of your Asset Management program
Don’t run your test phase during the busy summer months!
Do a Needs Assessment: what reports/analysis will be run on the data?
Write an SOP and hold regular meetings to ensure everyone is collecting data in a similar manner
More departments will want to use the software – give them read-only access
Check Internet connection – Run Mobile Pulse in your area
Multiple tablet users – AirWatch MDM software might be a good option
