Utilities worldwide depend on highly detailed maps to manage their facilities and operations while enabling enhanced levels of customer service. In the past these maps were laboriously created and maintained with pencil and paper. Today’s technology, utilizing GIS software running on PCs, offers information rich digital maps that are easier to maintain while being vastly more productive.
CanMap Systems is now focused on enhancing its product to the next generation of professional standards in desktop GIS interactivity and cross platform applications. With its solid client base, CanMap Systems is optimally positioned to offer its services and solutions to a broader North American and International market.
During the last few years, the threat and/or promise of competition has been the prime motive for creating and supporting GIS initiatives in utilities around the world. With increased focus on efficiencies and customer satisfaction, management realizes that the vital data managed by GIS will become increasingly strategic as their industries become more competitive. Network managers must use GIS to fully integrate information about their assets and customers, their equipment, usage patterns and other key data.
CanMap Systems, through its Fusion GISTM initiative, enables management to proactively create enhanced solutions, rather than defensively react to problems. CanMap Systems vision is an environment where different GIS applications communicate and interact through user-friendly graphical interfaces. An environment where engineering and management share information seamlessly. CanMap Systems is poised to leverage its demonstrated expertise in interactive software development as well as its traction in the market place to fulfill its mission of being the pre-eminent provider of powerful, user-friendly and economical GIS systems to networks and utilities worldwide.
