Authors: Erik de Jonge, Simon Luckett

Delfland is an urban area in Holland that lies mainly under sea level. Our water management relies on a dike/water system that we accurately register and monitor. We support essential work processes with the use of workflows in our web GIS viewer and mobile GIS apps. The processes include monitoring of water depths, dike inspection, water traffic control and data quality. The importance of integration of mobile GIS applications in the work processes in the water authority is highlighted.
