The Past: The Inventory▪ GIS commonly used for simply holding data
▪Automatic data acquisition
▪Drawing digitization
▪MIMS
▪ Firm belief in having data
▪ More is better

The Past: The Inventory▪ The accuracy rabbit hole
▪ Sub cm GPS or survey
▪7 decimal places
▪Day of install
▪ We are not landing the mars rover on your manhole

Now: The Inventory▪ Most useful info is in people. Download their brains!
▪Memories
▪Stories
▪ Or a photo

The Present: Begin Where You Are▪ Get the data out of the basement or people’s heads
▪ Sketchy data is better than no data
▪ Data entry is easily (cheaply?) farmed out

The Present: Duelling Datasets▪ Purpose of Cadd▪Design
▪ Purpose of TCA (often Excel)▪Report depreciation of assets
▪ Purpose of GIS▪Data Containment and Linking

The Present: Data Access▪ Get the right information to the right people at the right time
▪ Limiting access to a single point is a very big risk
▪ 3 Groups▪Public Works – needs accurate location and attributes
▪Administration – needs to ask strategic question
▪Leadership (Public) – needs to know why

The Present: Historical Data▪ There is power in trends.
▪Strategic planning
▪ Operations & Maintenance Tracking▪Maintenance isn’t free
▪Materials aren’t free

The Present: Implementation▪ The biggest hurdle
▪http://themaintainers.org/
▪ Be honest about the people/skills you have and what you need▪Outsource what you can’t have or don’t want
▪Personal Capacity vs. Interest vs. Space
▪Time – this is a process; Is it working?
