Description

Transportation agencies and departments are harnessing location intelligence to improve operational efficiency, safety, and security. This is achieved through the use of geographic information systems (GIS) to visualize and analyze data.

Case studies and guidance in Moving Forward: GIS for Transportation showcase how ports, airports, transit authorities, and departments of transportation around the world have implemented GIS to expand capacity, centralize security, coordinate maintenance, and plan modern data governance. These examples demonstrate the benefits of using web apps, online maps, dashboards, and other GIS solutions.

By developing a deeper understanding of infrastructure maintenance and operational performance within a real-world context, transportation professionals can increase efficiency while improving communication and collaboration. This book provides insight into how GIS is helping to strengthen the ability to maintain roads, railways, and other vital infrastructures.
