Chattanooga Water Meter Inventory
- Client: Tennessee American Water
- Prime Consultant: Urban GIS, Inc.
About this Project
Urban GIS provided Tennessee American Water with survey-grade locations for all water meters in their service area (~90,000). Each meter was inventoried for key attribution and delivered to them in their preferred GIS Model format. We utilized several Esri solutions including Field Maps, ArcGIS Online, Dashboards, ArcGIS Pro, among others.
During the data collection process, we performed quality control of the provided customer service address database by identifying duplicates, misspellings, missing features, and incorrect house number displays. We also noted any features that were inaccessible due to locked gates, broken tops of the water meter boxes, and their general location. We processed, analyzed, and displayed all data using Esri’s ArcPro and ArcGIS Online software.
Our work gave Tennessee American Water a better understanding of their current infrastructure conditions, offering insights that can be used to analyze, prioritize, and better understand the needs for future capital improvements.
