GIS Integration: Custom Mapviewer Overview

In addition to using Google maps or ESRI to display assets in Oracle Enterprise Asset Management or Oracle Asset Tracking, you can also use a custom web-based HTML map viewer.

By using this custom map viewer, you can:

• Display geocoded assets on a map.

• Display work orders on a map (work orders must be associated with geocoded assets).

• Transact work orders using the mapviewer, for example, view and create work orders, view and create work requests.
