The document outlines the importance of a Geo-based Resource Management (GRM) system for companies managing infrastructure, highlighting issues with traditional paper-based systems, data collection, and analysis. It emphasizes the benefits of a dedicated GRM solution tailored to each company's needs, promoting improved data management and GIS maturity across three development levels. Additionally, it describes deployment options and the company's commitment to providing customizable solutions while emphasizing their competitive pricing in the international market.

Resource Management

2. GRM – Geo Based Resource Management System makes
it easy and simple to have all infrastructure elements on
a map, base decisions on real data and update your
infrastructure in real time.
Nowadays, a GRM system becomes a tool of utmost
importance in the activity of a company who’s got
infrastructure to manage.
DEFINITION
2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 2

3. WHY USE GRM?
Companies with infrastructure to manage are familiar with a
series of problems.
 Issues with paper based infrastructure documentation
 Extremely limited possibilities when it comes to using paper based data
 Infrastructure information is spread in different offices
 Single point of knowledge about company infrastructure is non-existent
2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 3

4. ISSUES
 Issues with data collection
 There is no standardized strategy for collecting and storing data
 GIS data is collected and locked in proprietary software and can’t be
extracted
 It is impossible to track who created or edited certain data
 Issues with data analysis
 It is impossible to get the big picture of all infrastructure elements
 There is no way for infrastructure operators to make geospatial analysis
 There is no way marketing department can benefit from diagrams and
reports based on geographical information
2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 4

5. ISSUES
 Issues with general purpose maps (ex: Google Maps and Earth)
 There is a big gap in accuracy of the information presented on the map
 Often updates of the generic map can jeopardize already existing data
 License terms forbid deriving data from public imagery services and using
Google Maps for corporate purposes
 Issues with generic GIS Software (ex: Arcgis, MapInfo)
 Too complex to be operated internally, by non-GIS people
 Over-priced and over-qualified software, which original purpose wasn’t
corporate infrastructure management but state land survey

6. HOW TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES?
The solution would be to use a dedicated system, designed to
address the problems infrastructure operators are faced with.
A solution which can be customized and adapted to suit each
company particularly.
A solution which would rise an operator to a new level in
managing infrastructure related data, and mainly, to GIS maturity.
Such solution would include features like:

7. SOLUTION FEATURES
 Complete ownership over the data, complete traceability and elimination of vendor lock-in
 Centralized point of data management for infrastructure related GIS data
 Easy digitization and collaborative data collection tools
 Big data visualization in graphical way for executives
 Assistance for management in making strategic decisions (like network expansions)
 SOA integration with existing systems
 Simple data extraction in any GIS format

8. WHAT IS GIS MATURITY?
 A GIS maturity level is the stage at which an
infrastructure operator can find themselves in
implementing and using a GIS System
 Let’s further look at 3 development levels in detail
2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 8

9. GIS MATURITY – LEVEL 1 - VISUALIZATION
 At the first stage, an operator can simply visualize
GIS data, usually generated by suppliers in web form,
CAD files or paper based maps/schemas.
 They don’t know and don’t care about coordinate
systems, data models, normalization, versioned
geodatabases, file formats, or any of the other
issues.
2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 9

10.  At a second maturity stage, operators use more
complex GIS data and make best use of it.
 Usually this data is bought from cadastral/survey
institution or mapping company.
 Operators perform mathematical or statistical analysis
that answers specific research or business questions
that are too unique to be scripted in advance.
GIS MATURITY – LEVEL 2 - ANALYSIS
2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 10

11.  At this stage, the company is creating in-house data
and/or enrich geo data that they already have.
 The implementing company becomes self-served GIS
data providers for every GIS enabled software used
internally.
 EX: Network operations, radio planning,
troubleshooting, network development, geo-enabled
marketing, geo-services, telemetry, SCADA.
GIS MATURITY – LEVEL 3 – CREATING AND MAINTAINING DATA
2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 11

12. HOW TO REACH GIS MATURITY?
 Reaching the third maturity level can be hard and tedious when done with improper software and
partners. Or, it can be simplified and bring more value when implemented by experts.
 Our GRMS implementation team can assist your company to reach the highest GIS maturity level.
Besides, we will coach you in traversing successfully following phases:
2/28/2015GEO BASED RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – MWC 2015 12

13. GIS MATURITY STEP-BY-STEP
 Analysis of your company specifics
 comprising data models
 determining potential infrastructure related data sources and visualization model
 researching interoperability integration needs
 GRM adaptation and development if needed
 Installing and configuring GRM Server
 Start data digitization process from paper based documents or by importing data in the system
 can be done by non-GIS personnel
 Interoperability integration with other relevant systems
 Setup data exports for reuse by various systems and departments
 Set up dashboards for executives
