Utilities & Transportation

The utilities industry has changed dramatically in recent years. Privatisation, deregulation and competition have resulted in many mergers and acquisitions. These companies have large and diverse customer base; geographically disparate assets; a sizable workforce; and a critical role in the national infrastructure. Many has resorted to geospatial technology to protect their assets, improve customer service and ensure the safety of employees and the public, while at the same time improve efficiency, drive down costs, and deliver shareholder value. In transportation sector, geospatial data are foundation for relevant and critical information for planning, engineering, asset management and operations associated with every transportation mode at all levels of government and administration. A centralized geographic information system provides transportation professionals with the IT framework for maintaining and deploying data and applications throughout every aspect of the transportation infrastructure life cycle: planning, designing, surveying, construction, operations, and maintenance. The seminar on Utilities and Transportation will describe the use of geospatial technology in managing public utility services and transport infrastructure, which include:
  • Electricity and Telecommunications
  • Gas, Water and Sewage
  • Roads and Highways
  • Railways
  • Waterways and Bridges
