Using GIS for Utility Surveying and Mapping

This course will show how GIS is being used to collect, store, and organize the locations of underground utilities, along with the valuable data associated with those utilities. We will explore how we can get this important, historical data into GIS so that it can be viewed in an online web viewer. This course will get you thinking about how GIS should be viewed as another tool in the toolbox: an investment that pays for itself through increased efficiency. In this digital age, we must accept that the abundance of data needs to be effectively managed, organized and shared.
