INTRODUCING OVELLO GEOSPATIAL
In addition to traditional services, Ovello Geospatial offers a revolutionary solution to the challenges of developing, access-
ing and using geospatial data. As a full-spectrum geospatial company, we can meet your reporting and analysis goals while
staying within budget constraints. How?
1. Our new cloud computing solution, also known as Software as a Solution (SaaS), eliminates
the need to invest in expensive traditional geographical information systems (GIS) software.
2. Our solution also reduces the need for associated high-end computer hardware.
3. Our support services alleviate the work load for full-time IT and geospatial staff to maintain
in-house expertise to operate, modify and maintain traditional GIS systems.
All you need is a computer located anywhere in the world with Windows XP operating system (or newer), a good Internet
connection, Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 (or better) and a couple of hours of “hands-on” training.

How We Work
To show you how effective our approach is, we can create a test project for you using your own sample data. This approach
will help you see firsthand the value of our approach to geospatial services—and how we can save you money.

What is the Challenge?
As per FHWA…
Agencies have until January 2012 to establish and implement
a sign assessment or management method to maintain mini-
mum levels of sign retroreflectivity. The compliance date for
meeting the minimum retroreflectivity requirements on regula-
tory, warning, and ground-mounted guide signs is January
2015.
Why is this Program Important?
(FHWA) says “...the selection of a reasonable method for
maintaining sign retroreflectivity (Assessment Method or Man-
agement Method) might serve to defend highway agencies in
tort liability claims and litigation. Public agencies that imple-
ment and follow a reasonable method in conformance with the
national MUTCD would be in a better position to successfully
defend tort litigation involving claims of improper sign retrore-
flectivity than jurisdictions that lack any method.”
Sign Inventory by Geographical Navigation System
(S.I.G.N.S.©)
Ovello’s Four-Step Program offers a comprehensive begin-
ning-to-end solution to provide Agency management a road-
map and a framework to meet minimum
retroreflectivity requirements
Why Choose S.I.G.N.S?
The benefits of this program include that it is:
A unique interactive, spatial dimension to sign asset management
Easy to learn (2 hours of training)
Easy to use (intuitive point-click mapping approach)
Maintenance free
Cost-effective
The built-in open architecture of our S.I.G.N.S. provides
flexibility for:
Collecting sign inventory information
Choosing from full control to observational control
Incorporating additional asset layers
Easily sharing your asset management information
Establishing legacy of data
Using any MUTCD method to maintain sign retroreflectivity level.
Step 1: Assess, Plan, Budget & Fund
• Conduct initial assessment of current inventory and
management system
• Select best FHWA Management method
• Estimate budget costs
• Provide grant options to seek funding
• Draft outline for Agency’s Sign Maintenance Program (Step 4)
Cost: $1295
Step 2: Collect & Process Sign Inventory Information
If agency owner has not collected inventory
information, we can:
- Assist in coordination in information to be collected
- Rent/sell collection equipment and customize software
- Collect the sign inventory data
If agency owner has collected inventory
information, we can:
- Review data for completeness
- Assist in digitizing hard copy data
- Consult on creation of database
Cost varies: $500 - $10,000’s
Step 3: Establish S.I.G.N. Database
Management System
Ovello:
- Geocodes data (may be needed if Agency starts at Step 3)
- Processes “Google” map-based database with sign info
- Sets up web portal for Agency to manage sign inventory
- Conduct sign database QC/QA
- Deploys SIGN and trains Agency’s staff
One time processing and set- up cost: $3,950
Step 4: Administer Selected Sign Maintenance
Program
Agency:
- Manages sign inspection and replacement process
- Replaces signs and updates database as needed
Ovello:
- Intermittently preps data as needed (~5 hours/yr)
- Provides software license, updates and server costs
- Maintains and provides archived database
Approx. cost after 1st Year: $1,495 per year
Your Cost
Step 1 $1,295
Step 2 $500 to $10,000’s
Step 3 $3,950
