Leveraging Collector & UtiliSync to Manage Utilities
- 1. Leveraging Collector & UtiliSync to Manage Utilities Better
- 2. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • Is your road blocked trying to maintain your utilities?
- 3. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • Are you buried in paperwork trying to get that information to your GIS?
- 4. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • It’s time to break the chains and go digital
- 5. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • Goals – Get more organized – A solution to collect maintenance/inspections on our utilities – Make it easier to get everyone on the same page – Collect more data in the field while removing burden from office personnel
- 6. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • Advantages to going digital – Data is loaded real time – Analysis can be done at anytime • No more waiting for data entry – Field workers can see where they’ve already been
- 7. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • Advantages (Cont) – Managers can track progress – Lightens the load on GIS staff – Data entry improves • Ownership takes place – The crews working with the utilities every day have direct access to the data, see the mistakes and get them fixed
- 8. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • What did we need to make it work? – ArcGIS for Desktop (We already had 3- Advanced & 4-Basic Licenses) – ArcGIS for Server (We already had) – ArcGIS Online Account (We already had) – ArcGIS Collector Licenses (We already had due to our desktop licenses) – Enterprise Geodatabase (We already had capability due to ArcGIS for Server – SQL Server Express) • Including creating Related Tables to track all the maintenance – The ability to collect data with forms for some data (Utilisync)
- 9. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • How is it done? – Setup an Enterprise Geodatabase – Create a map using data located out on the web – Publish that map to the internet as a feature service – Import that map to ArcGIS Online – Make an ArcGIS Online Map – Open that map in ArcGIS Collector & start collecting Enterprise GDB Enterprise GDB MXD Feature Service ArcGIS Online ArcGIS Collector

This allows inspectors or maintenance workers to do multiple inspections/maintenance activities on a single feature . -Every night a Python Script is called from a .bat file which is called by a Windows Task Schedule which grabs the last inspection/maintenance that was done on that feature and puts it into the main FC table Relationship Class (RC)

- 14. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • When do we use Collector/UtiliSync? • Collector – Anything that only requires attribute updates/new feature creation • UtiliSync – Anything that requires forms/documentation
- 15. Leveraging Collector & Utilisync to Manage Utilities Better • Workflow With UtiliSync – User completes form in field – UtiliSync • Updates GIS Attributes • Saves data to related table • Saves forms to Google Drive • Save to Cityworks GIS AttributeGIS Attribute Related TableRelated Table
