Abstract:
GIS for Building and Managing Infrastructure presents a collection of maps that showcases how GIS can be implemented to help develop, manage, and present infrastructure projects. This book demonstrates how GIS can aid processes and promote transparency by providing a single data source from which to work. Featuring case studies from a range of technical-support structures including electric and gas utilities, public works, and renewable energy, this book is a reference for anyone involved in the infrastructure industry. The maps in this book are real-world examples from 57 different organizations currently using GIS to effectively examine infrastructure development.
