In this transformative session, Mark Grabowski from ITpipes and Finn Swann of Esri will unveil how integrating GIS with CCTV pipe inspection data revolutionizes utility management and planning. Our focus will bridge the gap between traditional inspection methodologies and the dynamic, spatial analysis capabilities offered by GIS. We'll delve into best practices for leveraging GIS to enhance the value of CCTV inspection data, showcasing real-world applications that have led to improved decision-making, efficiency, and cost savings for water and wastewater utilities. Key areas covered include the synchronization of CCTV data with GIS to create a comprehensive, visual understanding of infrastructure conditions, enabling utilities to prioritize maintenance and capital improvement projects effectively. Attendees will learn how to utilize GIS for identifying problem areas, predicting potential failures, and optimizing repair schedules. We'll also explore standards for data collection, storage, and analysis that ensure the compatibility and usefulness of inspection data within GIS platforms. This session is tailored for utility managers, GIS specialists, and field operation teams keen on harnessing the power of their data to drive better outcomes. By the end, participants will be equipped with the knowledge to implement a GIS-integrated inspection strategy that transforms raw data into actionable intelligence, significantly multiplying the value of their pipe inspection efforts. Join us to discover how your organization can benefit from the synergy of CCTV pipe inspection and GIS technology.
