Course Introduction

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have become essential tools for infrastructure authorities managing large road networks, drainage systems, and public assets. Effective GIS implementation enhances field mobility, improves data accuracy, and strengthens operational decision-making.

This course provides advanced knowledge in applying GIS technologies for infrastructure operations, integrating spatial data with asset management systems and improving real-time field performance.

Course Objectives

Participants will be able to:

• Apply GIS tools in infrastructure operations and maintenance
• Improve field data collection and mobility workflows
