They no longer required online access, and because the data is cached on the iPad, the speed of a map is incredible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>M.U.D. decided to implement Lemur because it wanted to make it easy for field technicians to launch their field app with embedded maps and location-based tools. They also wanted the ability to initiate workflows directly to the work order and provide a seamless experience between field service and mapping. These capabilities would simplify getting data to and from corporate systems so that workers would spend more time on their jobs and less time finding information from their laptops or back in the office.<\/p>\n<p>Today, field crews in multiple departments use the mobile GIS Lemur solution for everything from gas and water distribution to field services, construction, meter services, safety and security, and plant and design engineering. Staff can view location data and work order details for maintenance orders to route and understand the day\u2019s workload. It helps the utility manage more than 27,000 hydrants operating in the Omaha area, an extensive network that feeds five separate counties.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Lemur is used to perform a host of duties with minimal training. Staff can execute workflows and assess, capture, update, and share information in both online and offline environments. Using their mobile devices in the field, they can view propriety information, including assets, connectivity, and relationships between those assets, without multiple applications, manual processes, or additional training.<\/p>\n<p>With the success of M.U.D.\u2019s GIS and mobile mapping efforts, the company is looking to extend the benefits of GIS and field apps to more people, with plans to implement the Esri ArcGIS Utility Network, including network modeling, tracing, and isolation capabilities.<\/p>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<!-- End Block: acf\/innerpage-half-text-half-image -->\n\n<!-- Start Block: acf\/wysiwyg -->\n\n<section class=\"wysiwyg section-padding bg-light-gradient\">\n    <div class=\"container-fluid\">\n        \n        <div class=\"row\">\n                        <div class=\"col-lg-12\">\n                                                                                \n                                                <\/div>\n\n                                                                        <div class=\"col-lg-4 \">\n                                                        <div class=\"js-animated-content animated-content\">\n                                <p class=\"sub-heading\">About TRC Companies<\/p>\n<p>TRC is a global leader providing environmentally focused and digitally powered solutions tailored to meet the unique challenges of the energy transition.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.trccompanies.com\/contact-us\/\">Contact Us<\/a><\/p>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                                                                                <div class=\"col-lg-4 columns\">\n                                                        <div class=\"js-animated-content animated-content\">\n                                <p>With more than 55 years of proven expertise, our tested practitioners deliver innovative resolutions to the toughest challenges facing our critical infrastructure.<br \/>\nWith a dedicated workforce of over 8,000 professionals, we offer advisory, consulting, construction, engineering and management services, guiding complex projects from conception to completion.
