Esri, the global leader in location intelligence, today announced the publication of Delivering Water and Power: GIS for Utilities.
More and more, modern utilities are applying technology like sensors and data visualization tools to their operations. Using a geographic information system (GIS), utilities can give context to the wealth of information that’s collected. A well-run utility can be characterized as follows:
- Resilient and reliable
- Operationally flexible
- Safe and secure
- Customer focused
Drawing on real-world examples, Delivering Water and Power: GIS for Utilities addresses each of these characteristics. Contributors from utility organizations around the world share their challenges and successes. Chapters touch on technology upgrades, the application of dashboards, customer information and engagement, and more. Also, help in getting started with GIS is provided for each section.
