The Topography Layer can be used to get a detailed overview of a site without the cost of paying for a visit, so that employees can spend more time analysing information instead of collecting it. This makes it quicker to decide if a project is viable (and if it is, you can start to implement your plans sooner).
It provides a base upon which to accurately position and record company assets, and to deliver valuable time savings for customers needing to quickly define large areas (red-lining) for data capture. The polygon structure can help users select areas with a single click thereby speeding up data capture and management processes.
The Topography Layer can help to improve communication because ultimately, being visually clear, information can be easily and precisely displayed. By providing access to the latest information, this can improve confidence and speed up the decision-making process.
Access case studies of customers using the Topography layer in various industry sectors.
