Cost Savings: More accurate data reduces operational costs, as evidenced by fewer one-call requests (underground line locating), more efficient staking and improved workforce management.
Enhanced Efficiency: GIS can be used for better planning of projects and should result in fewer field visits.
Customer Satisfaction: Accurate location data means faster response times and improved infrastructure management.
Regulatory Compliance: FEMA assistance requires specific and accurate locations of infrastructure damage.
