Description
View an associated map by specifying geographical search criteria.
HxGN EAM can be integrated with ESRI's GIS (Geographical Information System) package. If you have purchased the GIS module, you may use all of the functions within the GIS Map Search forms.
Geographical Information Systems are important to companies with assets spread over a large area such as local governments/schools, oil and gas companies, utilities, etc. GIS systems are widely used to show assets and non-assets spatially via maps. These maps provide a better understanding of the location of the asset of interest, directions to the asset, work history of the asset, and the surrounding area of the asset in question.
Specify geographical search criteria to view an associated map. You can select equipment from the grid, run a filter for equipment in the grid, or use the map functions to change the map.
After performing a search, you can select a piece of equipment in the grid and then highlight the equipment's location on the map, show any related child equipment on the map, view Analytics data, view GIS attributes, create and schedule work orders for that equipment. Select multiple equipment records to create a route and route work order. You can also print the map using the corresponding GIS map icon below the map. Associate the map to a work order in an Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) file so that the map can later be printed with the work order.
