A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
A geographical information system for managing the assets of a water company
Describes how information technology is helping to address the business problems that arise from the management of a Water plc's fixed assets. The assets are distributed below and above ground across a geographical area covering 10500 square kilometres with a resident population of 4 million. The chosen IT solution is to exploit a geographical information system (GIS). The GIS has been evolving since 1988 and is due to be completed in 1995 approximately. The GIS exploits SUN workstations, high bandwidth data transmission networks, ICL mainframes and a range of application packages. When complete the databases associated with the GIS system will be in excess of 150 GBs and will be attached to the mainframe and distributed SUN Microsystem servers.
