Enables Superior Asset Decisions While Reducing Operating Costs

-- CartoPac International Inc., a global provider of leading GIS enterprise solutions for field asset management, demonstrated their Spatial Asset Management platform this week in front of 91 companies from the Marcellus region, in conjunction with Precision Laser & Instruments Inc., a leading provider of GIS-related equipment. The CartoPac solution helps organizations address growing regulatory, safety, and maintenance requirements related to field assets by providing a unified solution for the office and the field built on the Esri ArcGIS for Server platform. Field asset information can be collected, viewed, and rapidly shared across the enterprise, automating processes, streamlining communications, and enforcing data standards.

The demonstration was held as part of three workshops in Pennsylvania and Ohio, and was accompanied by customer experiences and regulatory information. Ken Schrader, CartoPac International's CEO, said, "There is a real need in the energy and other industries today for superior decision support using more accurate and timely spatial asset information. This is what we provide while significantly reducing operating costs, so it is no wonder that so many organizations came to hear how our solutions can help."

John Ferketic, Senior GIS Manager for EQT Corporation, said, "EQT has more than 11,000 miles of gathering and transmission pipeline. We chose CartoPac because of its ability to automatically integrate with Esri SDE and because it enabled us to establish a consistent collection process with the field teams. Using CartoPac, we were able to GPS 2,200 miles of pipeline and collect 98,000 points in 2011."
