AM / FM Utility Services

Data modeling for AM/FM is more complex than for traditional applications for a variety of reasons, in particular because of the need to model spatial and topological relationships. AM/ FM Data modeling involves a range of modeling issues in utility applications, including the efficient handling of various types of tracing and network analysis, outage management, and generation and maintenance of schematics.

Benefits of AM/FM System

  • Enables real time inventory of facilities and production of maps for use in the field and for the creation of a map library.
  • AM/FM GIS applications links the mapping capabilities with the facilities inventory.
  • AM/FM is both a day-to-day and long range planning device.
  • Increasingly used by planing & maintenance departments within the public sector.
  • Principally the same concept of traditional cartography-but with rapid output .
  • Library Maintenance more efficient - upto 10 times more efficient than manual cartography.
  • Centralised Data Management
    - multiple users can access data once stored on single map
    - allocate access and editing rights to be defined end - users.
