Asset Details Mapping
The product can be configured to support various mapping approaches between GIS features and assets. The following are high level guidelines to consider when designing such mapping:
• Analyze your GIS feature classes
◦ Determine which feature classes should be synchronized.
◦ Determine if subsets of a synchronized feature class should be skipped.
◦ Determine which GIS fields should be synchronized in each direction.
◦ Determine if value mapping is needed for some GIS values.
• Extend the base asset location business object if custom GIS location details need to be supported.
• Use asset attributes when possible, to store GIS asset related details
• Define corresponding non-tracked Asset Types and Asset Location Types.
• For each synchronized feature class define the following:
◦ Custom value mapping extendable lookups for specific GIS field values that may need to be mapped to different values.
◦ A GIS to WAM extendable lookup.
◦ A WAM to GIS extendable lookup if some asset details should be continuously synchronized back to the GIS system.
