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 whether to use the Skip functionality or the Filter Statement Builder for synchronized feature classes.

  • 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.
