Potable water asset management with GIS

We are excited to start working on an important GIS project for the Boylston Water District in Boylston Massachusetts. SDM has been hired to set up and initialize a GIS mapping and data management system as well as prepare and perform on-site training related to the new GIS environment. The main goal of this state-of-the-art GIS system is to maintain the water system's assets in an in-house database with the ability to edit and update the data as needed, and to be able to access the data remotely for water system personnel in the field performing important maintenance and asset tracking. In addition, the system will have the ability to upload developer’s AutoCad site plans quickly and accurately and to link photographs within the mapping environment.

Once completed, this system will contain all water sources, storage facilities, water mains, hydrants, gates, curb stops, and all other assets associated with the delivery of potable water to the residents of Boylston. SDM is excited to get started on this very important project for the District. We believe SDM was a great choice for a relatively small municipal entity such as the Boylston Water District because of our expertise, attention to clients’ needs, and competitive rates.
