In Santa Monica, California, handheld computers loaded with the city's GIS are being used by maintenance workers, allowing them to perform their duties more efficiently. Workers are sent out to complete tasks carrying the handheld computers, which are loaded with work orders and inspection requests as well as the GIS. They click on the location of the task on the city map and then record the inspection, inventory, or maintenance activities using menu selections. Their data is downloaded to the city's GIS and work management and asset management computer systems when they return to the office. Supervisors then load the handhelds with new work orders for the next day. pubtype: Trade Publication doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
