Compliance with green initiatives, building codes, and federal building acts are manageable and made more efficient with GIS.

Energy and Sustainability Management

Building automation systems and energy management systems can be effective tools to address sustainability issues but also produce a dizzying amount of information that needs to be assimilated and managed in order to be effective.  GIS can provide a platform for real-time visual access to this information from an intuitively comprehensible view of the building, campus or regional portfolio map. 

Success Stories:

• California Sunshine Is an Energy Goldmine
• Going Green at Pomona College
• 3D GeoInfo Berlin: BIM—CAD—GIS Integration

Environmental Compliance and Remediation

Recent federal legislation places greater compliance and remediation demands on Facility Managers than ever before.  GIS provides campus and portfolio-wide query, analysis, and reporting on environmental issues for combined building interior and landscape-level environments.

Success Stories:

• The New Gateway to Green Building

Safety and Security Control

Safety and security are of increasing concern in buildings and campuses of all sizes.  GIS provides a visual way to analyze and manage safety and security including line of sight analysis, monitoring of points of entry, and tracking areas of higher than average safety issues.

Success Stories:

• Innovative Strategy for Facility Upgrading

Emergency Planning and Response

Disaster planning and business continuity require the identification of backup sites, employee locations, and critical infrastructure.  GIS allows managers to determine where things are and how to best allocate and relocate resources to and from the affected locations including running “what if” scenarios in a rapidly changing environment.
