• Fully web-based utility network management product line now available worldwide
• VertiGIS’ fully web-based solution enables comprehensive management of all network infrastructures.

VertiGIS, a leading global provider of spatial asset management solutions, is pleased to announce the global launch of its VertiGIS Networks product line, which made its debut in North America in May. The solutions, developed specifically for VertiGIS Networks, enable utilities to visualise, manipulate and integrate their network data with modern web applications.

Esri, the global leader in geographic information systems (GIS) software, launched ArcGIS Utility Network in 2018. VertiGIS Networks is a state-of-the-art product line built from the ground up that enables utilities to visualise, track, analyse and manipulate their ArcGIS Utility Network data in both web browsers and native apps with online and offline workflows.

VertiGIS Networks can leverage the scalability and flexibility of cloud infrastructure to provide organisations with seamless integration, efficient resource utilisation and increased resilience. In particular, VertiGIS Networks can automate data exchange and synchronisation between GIS and SAP or other enterprise systems. This avoids duplicate data entry in different systems while ensuring high quality and integrity in the respective databases.

“VertiGIS Networks allows us to offer companies a comprehensive solution for the entire lifecycle of their assets, from design, construction and commissioning to maintenance, repair and renewal across all business units″, says Drew Millen, CTO at VertiGIS. “By offering these solutions in the cloud, we lower the barrier to entry so utilities can take advantage of Esri’s ArcGIS Utility Network without having to invest in hardware infrastructure.”

The VertiGIS Networks product line includes VertiGIS Network Explorer, VertiGIS Network Simulator, VertiGIS Network Editor, VertiGIS Network Locator, VertiGIS Outage Manager and VertiGIS Network Maintenance. VertiGIS data models, based on the ArcGIS Utility Network, can be easily customised to meet internal business requirements while adhering to established standards. These models ensure consistency across all business areas and provide a solid foundation for the digital twin of the network infrastructure.
