Written for executives and technical managers within the energy services industry, this book shows how several organizations use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology to manage their facilities more cost-effectively, find new market opportunities, and better serve their existing customers. GIS allows utility managers to organize all the major activities of the business according to geography. Whether it’s a natural gas provider looking for abandoned pipes, an electric company searching for the exact location of the problem after a blackout, or a contractor laying cable for a new subdivision, GIS technology is a powerful tool to help them do their work.
