Local governments are not only responsible for the general services of the community, but they also bear the responsibility of advocating for its citizens. When daily impacts affect people, they think first of their township, borough, or city. This is especially true when it comes to understanding items such as land boundaries, rights of way, locally owned items such as poles, signage and everything occurring below the surface such as sewer mains, gas lines, underground electric, and telecommunications. Local governments and municipalities play a major role in developing and shaping community growth, and GIS (Geographic Information Systems) can drastically help.
GIS has been used to effectively manage inventories since the 1960’s. Since that time, there have been great advances that allow local governments responsible for the wellbeing of its constituents, to help by locating and understanding the status of vital infrastructure.
Join our free webinar and learn how local governments and municipalities are using GIS applications and new technology to track, analyze and manage valuable assets and data.
Learning Objectives:
- About 80% of your data has a spatial component - learn about the three major challenges that local governments experience handling this data, and how they can be solved through GIS
- Understand the expectations citizens have and how spatial data can address them
- Hear about the methods and resources that can be used to modernize an older recordkeeping system
- Learn how to move from paper records to digital records at the best speed for your municipality
