How utility leaders predict the future with GIS
I served as the host of Energy Central’s limited podcast series ‘TheGISt,’ all about the world of Geographic Information Systems and their use in the power sector.
Here’s episode 6:
“When you see relationships and patterns, you don’t just take a peek at opportunities—you get a preview of risks…and a chance to get out in front of changes that need to be made.
That’s the power of GIS as a tool for discovery.
Why? Because looking at your reality in a spatial context opens up a new world of discoverability—and that can quite literally take utilities from “I hope so” to “now I know what to do.” Creating that tapestry of high-value information can change everything for power pros.
In the second of three top-notch episodes of The GISt with our partners at Esri, we’re joined again by Director of Electric Utility Solutions Bill Meehan & Director of Electric Industry Solutions Pat Hohl. And these two? They’re breaking down some of the coolest ways utilities are leveraging GIS and mapping to do better business—including how one Esri client quadrupled their asset renewal program effectiveness in just one year.”
