The document discusses how GIS can be used as an information backbone to support effective decision making. It provides examples of how GIS has been used for capacity analysis, capital improvements planning, and developing asset management strategies. Specifically, it describes how GIS data, modeling, and analytics can help infrastructure managers make informed decisions, minimize risks, and save time and expenses when planning maintenance and capital projects.
