After digitizing their drawings into a GIS, the team then became determined to increase the accuracy of their maps. Learn how the entire Cassatt Water team came together to adopt new high-accuracy mobile technology, improve the accuracy of valve locations, and ensure that they leave the next generation of utility personnel with reliable digital maps.
