GIS Asset Management Solutions

Connect asset locations, condition, inspections and maintenance history in a shared operational view.

Discuss your asset management needs

InfoGraph helps organizations plan and implement GIS-based asset management around their infrastructure and operating responsibilities. We connect the asset inventory with the records teams need to inspect, maintain and review it.

What we deliver

  • Asset inventories and consistent identifiers linked to GIS
  • Data preparation, validation and migration planning
  • Asset hierarchies, condition records and inspection requirements
  • Software configuration and integration scoped to your systems
  • Operational maps, reports and agreed handover documentation
  • Team training and an agreed implementation roadmap

How we work with you

  1. Review asset types, responsibilities and existing records.
  2. Agree identifiers, required attributes and data-quality checks.
  3. Configure and validate a pilot with representative assets and users.
  4. Plan rollout, integration, training and ongoing data ownership.

Build on your existing ArcGIS data

We use Esri tools and configure ArcGIS Solutions where they fit the requirement. We begin with your ArcGIS layers, asset identifiers, related records and organizational access rules. Existing services can be reused where compatible; where a solution requires a different schema, we map fields and plan loading or integration rather than assuming every layer can be connected unchanged.

We agree which system owns each record, who can edit it and how updates reach office and field users. The pilot checks permissions, attachments, relationships and, where required, offline synchronization. Connections to customer-service, enterprise asset management or finance systems are scoped explicitly, including identifiers, update direction and responsibility for failed exchanges.

For an organization already using ArcGIS, we first review its existing maps, services and editing workflows. We define which asset attributes stay in GIS and which belong in an ERP, equipment register or document system. An integration must specify the shared identifier, update direction, timing and reconciliation process; it is not simply a second copy of the inventory.

How we apply this in your sector

Water and wastewater utilities

We structure pipes, valves, hydrants, manholes and pumping assets around stable identifiers, ownership and inspection requirements. A valve inspection should remain linked to the same valve after a map correction. Where tracing is required, we scope network connectivity separately from the inventory and validate the data relationships needed for that task.

Electricity distribution

For poles, transformers, switches and distribution lines, we define which attributes field teams can update and which changes require engineering review. Electric Distribution Data Management can provide an Esri starting point for inventory and shared system maps. An inventory deployment alone does not establish operational switching or outage-management capability.

Streetlights and poles

A pole, its luminaires and a nearby cabinet are related assets, not interchangeable records. We configure the inventory and inspection forms to distinguish them and retain the responsible owner. Esri Streetlight Management provides a foundation for collecting these assets and organizing inspection and maintenance information. This also supports distinguishing fixture replacement from replacement of the supporting pole.

Traffic signals and intersections

We organize signals, cabinets and poles in their intersection context so an inspection identifies the actual component requiring attention. Esri Signal Management offers inventory and maintenance capabilities for these assets. We agree identifiers and relationships with the traffic team; asset maintenance records do not themselves control signal timing.

Stormwater and drainage

Structure inlets, culverts, channels, outfalls and related inspection records with consistent identifiers. Capture access constraints, observed blockage and the date of the observation. Where flow relationships matter, distinguish surveyed connectivity and levels from assumptions so an inventory is not mistaken for a validated drainage model.

Campuses and shared facilities

Connect the site, building, floor or room identifier to the assets a facilities team maintains. Agree ownership where university departments, tenants and central maintenance share responsibility. Related equipment records and documents should remain traceable when room names or departmental assignments change.

Industrial facilities and sites

Organize shared infrastructure and maintainable equipment around site boundaries, asset hierarchies and responsible operators. Link GIS locations with existing equipment registers and relevant drawings using agreed identifiers. We define which details belong in GIS and which remain authoritative in the plant or enterprise asset system.

Telecommunications infrastructure

Bring ducts, chambers, cabinets, poles and fiber routes into a consistent geographic inventory, linked to existing network records where available. Separate physical asset location from circuit, strand or connectivity information. When detailed fiber modelling is required, scope the specialist data model and software rather than implying a map of routes contains every connection.

What this looks like in practice

A utility team might need to find a valve on a map, review its latest inspection and see related maintenance records. A consistent asset identifier connects those records without relying on matching free-text descriptions.

Defining the project scope

The implementation scope depends on data readiness, selected software, licensing and integration requirements. A mapped inventory alone is not a complete maintenance system.
