Paper
Identifying Critical Locations in an Urban Environment Using ArcGIS
Track: Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater
Author(s): Dale Clancy, Lynne Higgins

With aging infrastructures and budgetary constraints utilities and municipalities are turning to risk models to define where they need to spend limited inspection and rehabilitation dollars. The majority of this work has been done on individual asset networks, but the reality of an urban environment is that surface and subsurface assets have spatial relationships that should be considered in rehabilitation decisions. Road, water, sanitary, and storm networks are evaluated individually using traditional risk evaluation methods and across assets in defining and critical locations in developing priories for inspection and rehabilitation programs.
