Viewing GIS maps from equipment records

View the GIS map for a piece of equipment and configure the system to link the GIS map to work orders as they are released.

To view GIS maps from equipment records:

Open the Assets, Positions, Systems, or Routes form.
Select the asset, position, system, or route for which to view a GIS map, and then click the Record View tab.
Right-click, and then select View GIS Map.

Note: The system highlights the length of linear equipment records as defined by the From Point and To Point and labels the boundary points of the equipment record.
Specify this information:

Map

Specify the GIS map for which to view. The system automatically populates the map description and Organization.

Link GIS Map To WO

Select to link the GIS map to work orders containing the selected asset, position, system, or route as the work orders are released.

When the work order is released, the system links the map to the work order as a PDF, flags it to print whenever the work order is printed, and displays it on the Documents page of the Work Order form.

Note: You can edit the view of the map, such as zoom in, using the map toolbar in the popup.
Click Submit.

Note: The system saves the current map settings and visible layers, e.g., if you edit the zoom extent of the map and click Submit, the system opens the map to that zoom extent the next time you view the map.
Map will be saved if GISMAPS is set to Organization or Department.
