Use Case: Infrastructure Transport & Logistics

A New Era of Road Infrastructure Management with Mobile GIS Solutions

We help transport authorities and infrastructure managers across the UK and Europe to optimise road network management through advanced GIS solutions, data analytics, and bespoke mobile application development.

Data Validation and Quality Control

We implement data validation rules and quality control measures to ensure data accuracy and consistency. Geolocated data and validation rules minimise errors and enhance data quality. Increased Efficiency in Field Operations through real-time data capture and upload reduce manual data entry and streamline workflows.   

Establishing a secure and efficient transportation network.

Accurate and up-to-date data supports proactive maintenance and improves road safety. Our data analytics and visualisation tools provide actionable insights for informed decision-making.

Scalability and Flexibility

Achieve both immediate cost savings through efficient data management and long-term value with solutions that are scalable and flexible enough to grow with your business and the changing technological landscape. Streamlined data collection and management processes reduce operational costs.

Connecting Your Management Systems for Optimal Analysis

We ensure seamless integration with existing management systems and databases, facilitating efficient data transfer and analysis. 

Achieving Optimal Road Network Performance with Tracsis Geo Intelligence

Tracsis Geo Intelligence (TGI) empowers transport authorities and infrastructure managers across the UK and Europe to optimise road network management through advanced GIS solutions, data analytics, and bespoke mobile application development.

We help you transform complex data collection and management processes, leading to improved efficiency, accuracy, and safety.

This use case demonstrates how our team can streamline road infrastructure data collection, enhance pavement management, and provide actionable insights for informed decision-making.

Potential Client Challenge

Maintaining accurate and up-to-date road infrastructure data is critical for effective asset management, maintenance planning, and ensuring road safety. Traditional data collection methods are often time-consuming, prone to errors, and lack real-time capabilities. Challenges often faced by transport authorities include:   

  • Inconsistent Data Collection: Varying data formats and collection methods across different teams or contractors lead to inconsistencies and inaccuracies.
  • Inefficient Field Operations: Manual data entry and paper-based processes slow down data collection and hinder real-time updates.   
  • Data Accuracy Issues: Lack of geolocated data and manual errors result in inaccurate and unreliable information.
  • Integration Challenges: Integrating field data with existing pavement management systems can be complex and time-consuming.
  • Need for Real-Time Updates: Delays in data updates hinder timely decision-making and proactive maintenance.
Pavement Management

Our Solution – PMS Mobile Applications

We offer a comprehensive mobile GIS solution designed to streamline road infrastructure data collection and enhance pavement management.

Our solution includes:

  • Custom Mobile Applications: We develop user-friendly, cross-platform mobile applications tailored to the specific needs of field surveyors and infrastructure managers.
  • Geolocated Data Capture: Our applications enable precise geolocated data collection, ensuring accuracy and relevance.
  • Standardised Data Formats: We implement standardised data formats and validation rules to ensure consistency across all data collected.
  • Real-Time Data Upload: Our applications facilitate seamless, real-time data upload to central databases and pavement management systems.
  • Data Analytics and Visualisation: We provide data analytics and visualisation tools to extract actionable insights from collected data.   

Key Components of the Solution:

PMS (Pavement Management System) applications have been built with Xamarin’s cross-platform development framework.

Xamarin enables developers to build native apps for multiple platforms on a shared C# codebase, using shared IDE, language and APIs.

The four mobile apps have been built over time, incrementally allowing the team to make improvements to the code base with each iteration.

Key components include

  • Cross-Platform Mobile App Development

 We use modern development frameworks to build robust and scalable mobile applications compatible with various devices and operating systems.   

  • Customisable Data Collection Forms 

We design customisable data collection forms to capture specific road infrastructure attributes, such as pavement condition, speed limits, footway conditions, and work locations.

  • Integrated GPS and Mapping Capabilities 

Our applications integrate GPS and mapping technologies to enable accurate geolocated data capture and real-time visualisation of data on maps.

  • Offline Data Collection 

Our applications support offline data collection, allowing surveyors to work in areas with limited connectivity.

  • Seamless Integration with Existing Systems 

We ensure seamless integration with existing pavement management systems and databases, facilitating efficient data transfer and analysis.

  • Data Validation and Quality Control

We implement data validation rules and quality control measures to ensure data accuracy and consistency.

Solution Benefits

The development of these mobile applications enables Local Authorities and independent third parties to collect and provide pavement quality data in a consistent format to Local Authority systems.Mobile applications are used to information relating to roads, including:

    • PSCI – Pavement Survey Condition Index, a standardised quality rating.
    • Speed Limits – for the capture of speed limit changes on roads
    • Footways – for the capture of footpath quality and hazards
    • Works – for the capture of road work locations

Applicable Applications

  • Pavement Condition Surveys
  • Road Asset Inventory and Management
  • Speed Limit Monitoring and Enforcement
  • Footway and Cycleway Condition Assessments
  • Road Work and Maintenance Tracking
  • Traffic Sign and Signal Inventory
  • Incident and Accident Reporting

Technology makes it possible, people make it happen.
