GIS & Location Technology Episode 10 - Forecasting and the Value of Spatially-enabled Databases

Summary: This presentation from CalGIS 2007 highlights the advantage of using enterprise GIS to support critical decisions about resource allocation for asset management by demonstrating Farallon's "Project Selection" pavement management application. This application offers a simple interface that enables GIS novices to import pavement "what if" scenarios from a pavement management program, view them on a map, and then analyze various pavement treatment decisions against budget scenarios.
