Intermountain Gas typically updated their maps daily. However, because of the time needed to rebuild the cached maps in their geographic information system (GIS), users might not see these updates until weeks later. Intermountain Gas needed a better, more efficient way to build and manage caches.
The City of Corvallis used geospatial data to support daily tasks by internal staff and the public. For a long time, these needs could be met using file-based datasets (Esri shapefiles) and disconnected tools.
Each summer, ENSTAR technicians were required to inspect more than 30,000 gas meters and record meter conditions on pre-printed paper forms.
ENSTAR wanted to improve their work processes by having technicians capture this information electronically using mobile devices while simultaneously field verifying meter information.
