Updating a Utility GIS to Depict New Construction Track: Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater Author(s): Darrell Schuler, Henry Mogilevich, David Coleman One of the more important issues for utilities with established GIS systems is to keep the GIS current and representative of real-world features. A timely and efficient approach is to equip field personnel to collect that data as construction occurs. With sub-meter GPS and ArcPad, field personnel can collect data and upload into the existing GIS system. Concurrently, field personnel can use the GIS in the field to assist with many day-to-day operations. This paper will describe a case study of a utility that has undertaken this project and will detail the steps along the way.
