On The Right Track: Managing Railroad Assets with Mobile and Web GIS
Track: Railways
Authors: Stephen Smith

The Vermont Agency of Transportation Rail section has modernized railroad asset and property management with the full range of Esri’s GIS products. To eliminate data “silos”, we deployed mobile asset inspection with ArcGIS Collector, live tracking and analysis with Operations Dashboard, and detailed field reports with ArcGIS Mobile. Leveraging the Agency’s ArcGIS Online subscription, we transformed paper files into web maps, enabling easy access to GIS data for internal users and the public.
