Reasons for GIS development

� Complex and large infrastructures in a densely populatedarea.

� Outdated graphic information, generally in a non-digitalformat.

� Difficulty in having reliable updated data from the networkdue to:

� Avoiding obsolescence: development of GIS required .

� Modifications caused by new road and railwayinfrastructures and service networks (water and gassupply).

� Modifications caused by town planning (new roads orstreets, new connections).

� In 2006 the implementation of EMSSA’s GIS began,contracting an ESRI ArcView licence.

• Maintenance of sewers and inflows and overflowscontrol.

• Providing precise and updated information.

• Providing on-line information (eWise- ACEFAT).
