This is a three stage project, looking to investigate existing processes and technology within NGN, and develop a smart and accurate prototyope system and process, to imrpove the effciency and quality of field date capture, to enable the seamless transfer of field data directly back into existing business processes and main asset repositories, reducing the need for human intervention and pre and post processing of data.

• Stage 1 will undertake a design requirements investigation

• Stage 2 will develop the application and design test requirements

• Stage 3 will undertake live field trials using the prototype application

Benefits

A successful project will deliver a prototype field based automated survey data gathering tool.

NGN will have defined and proved an efficient and optimal survey method using a combination of smart GIS, mobile workflows and field mapping application for smartphone and tablet platforms, which can be deployed across a wide range of operational tasks, delivering verifiable, accurate, repeatable and risk-reducing functionality.

Ease of use will be the primary operational aim, enabling any field operative to deploy and save time on-site, and eliminate site re-visits.

Develop a MVP for MRPS and associated field survey data capture, GIS asset data processing and integration into NGN business processes

Report a to CBA for future development

Data will be accurately positioned to within predefined tolerances for accuracy

Data will transferred directly into asset repositories

User Acceptance testing will provide positive feedback for further development
