Facility Optimization

NASA uses GIS to preserve its rich history.

Planning for and adequately managing the physical aspects of any facility—an office, a warehouse, a school district, or an entire telecommunications plant—are challenging. Geographic solutions answer many questions including

• What capital expenditures are needed to renovate aging buildings? What rooms need repair?
• Where is land for new buildings available at a reasonable price and with proper zoning?
• What technology assets need to be redeployed to other sites and which routes should be used?

Integrating data through GIS streamlines data collection and dissemination, eliminates redundancies, and allows more informed decisions and increased work performance.
