Agenda: GIS/ERP Integration for Commercial and Civil ABI
• Discuss current research issues surrounding the seamless integration of
ERP and GIS systems as a practical ABI enabler.
•
Examine the dynamic geo-enablement of ERP data to understand the
visualization, spatial and temporal relationships between the data.
•
Discuss components that integrate GIS data with an Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP) system in real time providing the ability to query, view
and process business transactions in the ERP system.
•
Look at examples of scalable Service Oriented Architecture based
examples which reducing the go-live time for commercial/civil
implementation

Integrating GIS & BI to Visualize Better...Act Faster
Address the opportunity to provide organizations the
capability to react to how location influences
changing business/mission processes in order to
minimize risk and maximize opportunities
Applying the understanding of dynamic geographic
based relationships to predict the impact on a
business/mission outcome.
Actionable awareness of relationships between
dynamic location information and
business/mission operations

and also increases the safety of the police officers on field offering:
Common Operating Picture: Visualization of a common picture on a mapping interface by
integrating data from various sources (Situational Awareness)
Integration with CAD, AVL and other Data Sources: Seamless integration and presentation of
data in different formats and from various platforms in real time
Real Time Info: Ability to render real time information on a map to ensure police officers are
well-informed (Asset Tracking, Satellite Tracking, Social Media Monitoring)
Route Analysis: Suggestions for best routes during operation or violent situations to manage
situations efficiently and to reduce risk to police officers’ lives
Video Feed Integration: Availability of abundant live video feeds on map and option to view
Plume Modeling: Provision for predicting the areas under risk in case of chemical and natural
hazards using different GIS models

Location Analytics for State & Local Governments
Drive mission-critical local governance objectives.
Quick, Efficient & Cost Effective data collection & management through Automated workflows &
Real Time Access to Data of all departments within organization.
Information infrastructure to facilitate optimum civic planning and development and a unified
view into…
City Services : Maintenance of daily city services such as Public Transport management,
Water Management, Solid Waste Management etc.
Planning & Development such as Town Planning
HealthTracking: Healthcare & wellness planning, Epidemic Control, Situational Awareness etc
Property Tax Management: Property mapping, Revenue Analysis, Property Assessment
Public Safety: Fire Hazard & Mitigation, Flood management, Disaster Management , Crime
Control management.
Citizen Portal: Municipal Problem Reporting, Citizen Service Management, Online Services
Commercial Application: Retail Product Distribution
Applications (web based and for the iPad) to help a client evaluate how GIS can add
value to their critical business operations.
The Depletions Mapping Dashboard Application demonstrated the business intelligence
capabilities of GIS by providing a map based sales dashboard for senior executives.
The Distributor Partner Manager Route Planner application developed for iPad,
demonstrated GIS’s routing and mobile capabilities. This application enabled a DPM
to plan a route to visit client accounts and take notes on the go.
Commercial Application: Dashboards & Planning Tools

Maintenance Notifications and Work Orders
Audit Status – Due, in-process, completed
Spatial analysis of historical data
Data Updates from Map Interface
– Create, update and complete maintenance transactions
– Maintain asset attributes from map interface

•
Unified view of GIS and SAP attributes
Attributes update happen in both backend systems
User does not worry about where each attribute belongs
Water, Sewer, Storm Drain, Gas Electricity, Telecom
Streets, Signal Shop
Airport terminal and runway maintenance
Locate where the network equipment is installed
Contributes to find weaknesses in infrastructure before disaster hits
Determine where the damage occurred
Identify parts, facilities, or networks due for maintenance
Water Utility Use Case – Fire Hydrant Audits
• Process Before Integration
• Paper based – field crew took paper maps
• Record observations and readings on paper
• Bring back papers to office
• Office staff created “Audit” notifications in SAP
• Complete data entry in SAP screens
• Where damage code was found, created another “Repair” notification
• Time consuming process, sometimes delayed, papers misplaced, etc.
• Difficult to track “Unaudited” hydrants
Asset and Work Management

Water Utility Use Case – Fire Hydrant Audits
• Benefits Achieved
 Paperless, online process
 Complete data entry through web browser – map interface
 Automation in process flow and data entry
 Where damage code was found, created another “Repair” notification
 Huge time saving for field staff and office staff
 Real time updates, errors, loss of data, etc eliminated.
 “Due for Audit” and “Due for Repairs” Hydrants easily visible on the
map.
• Implementation will be extended to other processes

•
Linking of GIS and BI, two highly complementary technologies, in an integrated solution.
Plugs GIS for BOBJ or for IBM Cognos directly into dynamic day-to-day Business
Intelligence report viewing, authoring and deployment workflow.
Other Application Areas….
Transportation
• Monitor traffic and regularity
• Enhance operational efficiency and finance control
• Monitor maintenance and investment actions
• Track billing and price options
• Enhance communication
Telecom
• Data Visualization & Reporting
• Geo-marketing & Trade Areas Analysis
• Regulatory & Environmental Compliance
• Resource Allocation
• Network Infrastructure Monitoring
• Sales Territory Management
Conclusions
•
Commercial and Civil worlds are not using the term ABI but are rapidly
driving towards ABI solutions.
•
USGIF community can leverage the torrent of “70% ready, 30%
customizable solutions” already undertaken to shorten implementation
cycles.
•
Integration and Real time updates are the ABI enabler (compared to batch
synchronization in other products) with no data duplication required between
GIS and ERP system so user sees seamlessly merged data from 2 systems
•
Data sources and streams exist – ABI is enabled by integration components
and the application of an “ABI vision”
•
Scalable, easily extendable to multiple workflows / business processes
ensures expanding use.
Proven Commercial and Civil Applications can provide a strongly leveragable
Framework for further ABI development.
