Utilities
Industry Event - Leveraging Asset Data in CAD
Live Seminar, March 2nd, Walnut Creek, CA
CAD
Masters, Inc. invites you to attend this Utilities Industry Event.
Learn the capabilities of current technology for managing your
assets and your asset data and see first hand the results achieved
by the City of Palo Alto Utilities Department.
Easy
access and management of asset data within CAD has
long been an obstacle for most utility agencies. The data
translation between various sources and systems has been weak at best.
Come and see how Autodesk Topobase, a powerful GIS tool
running within AutoCAD, makes easy access to utility information a reality.
Using Autodesk technology, CAD Masters can help you close the gap
between design and maintenance of assets and as-built asset
information.
During this seminar, we will present the successes at the City of
Palo Alto with Electric, Water, Gas, Wastewater, Street Lights,
Traffic Signals, Cathodic Protection, and Fiber Optic. See how
they can access any and all information on an asset and leverage
that information for design and maintenance tasks. We will
demonstrate workflow for service orders on existing assets, design
and as-built entry for capital improvement projects, and reporting
for internal operations, budget tracking, inventory, maintenance
scheduling, and more.
No cost. Seating is limited, so
Register Now.
Date:
March 2, 2011
Time:
9:00 am - 12:00 pm
