Challenge

On-call services from Stadtwerke (municipal utilities) Walldürn guarantee a reliable supply of electricity, gas and water around the clock. To do this, the technical field service needs mobile maps of the network infrastructure, which are available in every vehicle at all times. In the event of damage, the technicians can quickly gain an overview of the situation and assess whether pipes from other areas are also located in the affected zone.

Solution

For over 25 years, Stadtwerke Walldürn has been maintaining network documentation data in the Smallworld GIS applications of the IT service and consulting company Mettenmeier, a long-standing Platinum Partner of Getac, a leading global provider of rugged technology and video solutions. Smallworld GIS provides daily updated network and asset data to MGC, its mobile, map-based application. With the introduction of Getac's rugged F110 tablets, the GIS maps are also available ofine at any time and are therefore independent of mobile phone coverage or WLAN services. Reliable data availability together with a robust device is crucial for surveys or necessary excavations - especially under adverse conditions.
