Buyer's guide

Pipe Inspection Software Buyer's Guide

The Pipe Inspection Software Buyers Guide is an essential resource for selecting pipe inspection software tailored to organizational needs. It provides a comprehensive overview of critical features, integration capabilities, cost considerations, and tips for securing stakeholder buy-in. With case studies and practical insights, this guide empowers utilities and municipalities to make informed decisions that enhance pipeline maintenance and operational efficiency.

Case Studies

Out of Sight, Not out of Mind: Moving Buried Assets into GIS

The City of Sheboygan, Wisconsin, has worked diligently to replace an outdated, stand-alone GIS with an Esri enterprise GIS. Starting in 2017, the city secured resources and implemented a common geospatial platform to efficiently manage data, deploying location intelligence solutions to city employees and taxpayers. However, pipe inspection data was still in siloed and inaccessible to many stakeholders.

Data Flows Through Loveland Storm Sewers

The city of Loveland, Colorado, sits in a canyon with the environmentally sensitive Big Thompson River running through its heart. Heavy rains and floods in recent years revealed issues within the storm sewer system. The city knew they had to inspect its storm sewer system to protect the city from the river, as well as to protect the river from the city. The public works department turned to ITpipes to help staff collect and bring storm sewer asset data into their Esri ArcGIS

Best Practices for Pipeline Inspection Data with GIS

Utilities that have adopted a geographic information system (GIS) to support the management and inspection of pipes have significantly increased efficiency. Many utilities store pipeline inspection data and GIS data in the same geodatabase. Unfortunately, further down the road, the geodatabase and multiple associated files become more complex and increasingly vulnerable to serious management complications. An alternative solution that has long-term sustainability involves keeping the majority of pipeline inspection data in a separate database. The question, then, is how the pipeline inspection data can be used in conjunction with the GIS data.
