Overview:

PWS Suite is a user-friendly, simplified geographical information system (GIS) that allows you to create a map from existing GIS data layers, and add data to the map. A wizard walks you through creating a project, and then defining the type of information you want to collect (asset). Several assets are already defined.

Adding information is simple: Click Add Asset. Select the type of asset from the list. Use the visual references on the map to find the location of the asset (e.g. the fire hydrant on the southwest corner of First and Oak). Click on the map where it is located. Then fill out the form to record the information.

Use the SELECT button, then click on the map. The selected item is highlighted in color, and the datagrid in the top right of the window displays information about the item.

Updating information: Select an asset. Above the datagrid, click on the INVENTORY button. The predefined form appears, and information can be updated. Same method applies to CONDITION.
