Make the Most of Your Geo Data: From Maps to Meaningful Choices

Cities and municipalities today have access to a goldmine of geographic data. But much of that information remains underused. So how do you turn geo data into smart decisions, more efficient maintenance, and better public services? Meet the CityGIS App.

Every city or municipality collects valuable data on a daily basis. Think of traffic signs, street lighting, sewers, trees, playgrounds, trash bins… all of this infrastructure is neatly mapped. But what happens next?

In practice, geo data is often used for only one purpose. A traffic sign database, for example, may be updated simply to keep the records accurate. But why not also use that same information to determine when a sign needs replacing? Or to analyze road safety in specific neighborhoods?

The potential is there – now it’s time to tap into it.

One Central Place for All Your Infrastructure Data

With the CityGIS App, you consolidate all your geographic information into one digital platform. Not as a static overview, but as an interactive working tool for internal use and external collaboration.

Whether you work in the technical department, as a policymaker, or in coordination with contractors – everyone works with the same data, on the same map.

What Can You Manage?

A lot, including:

– Roads and bike paths
– Traffic signs
– Street lighting
– Bridges and tunnels
– Sewers and drainage
– Trees and green zones
– Playgrounds and sports fields
– Bus stops, parking areas, and mobility points
– Municipal buildings
– Trash bins, glass containers
– Camera systems
– Public art installations
– …and any other infrastructure in your municipality

The CityGIS App is modular: you choose what you need and how you want to use it.

Geo Data Is There – But Is It Being Used?

Many municipalities invest in building geo data. But too often, that data ends up in a folder on the server, only to be used for reporting or grant applications.

The real value? It lies in daily use.

  • Where exactly are your assets?
  • What condition are they in?
  • When is the next inspection or maintenance due?
  • Which contractor is doing what, and when?

By making geo data central to your workflows, you shift from simply recording to taking action.

Working with Up-to-Date and Shared Information

One of the biggest challenges for municipalities? Keeping data accurate.

With the CityGIS App, every intervention – a repair, replacement, or inspection – is immediately linked to the right location and object. No scattered Excel files or disconnected tools, just one single source of truth.

Even external partners like contractors, engineering firms, or intermunicipal services can work directly in the app. You’re not just sharing data – you’re building a digital memory of your public space together.

Plan Maintenance Using Floating Car Data

Geo data doesn’t have to come only from your own systems. External sources – like floating car data – offer valuable insights too.

Floating car data, collected from vehicles driving through your municipality, shows things like:

  • Average speed per street segment
  • Number of braking and acceleration moments
  • Peak traffic times
  • Areas where vehicles often slow down or swerve

This data reveals where roads wear out faster. Streets with heavy braking or frequent truck traffic will show damage more quickly.

With the CityGIS App, you can use these insights to:

– Detect high-wear zones
– Plan maintenance proactively
– Schedule works efficiently
– Coordinate and monitor external services

That’s how you move from reactive patchwork to proactive management.

Conclusion: From Geo Data to Smart Decisions

The data is there. The need is there. What’s often missing is the right tool to turn that data into action. The CityGIS App is that tool.

Whether you manage assets, plan maintenance, or work with external partners: this app helps you gain insights, organize work, and future-proof your municipality.
