In the Three-Waters industry, maintaining assets within limited budgets is a widespread challenge in Aotearoa. In the current financial, and infrastructural climate, targeting high-risk assets dynamically is crucial.
Citycare Water has developed ArcGIS Dashboards to monitor both reactive and planned work locations. We use customised check sheets to detail the activities being performed and harness environmental data to assess the potential implications on the community. This approach enables us to effectively track what is happening and where.
Dynamic dashboards, equipped with statistical widgets, provide critical insights into network performance. This includes revealing faults, trends, and seasonal pressures. These insights extend to various applications, including sewer blockages and water leak events. Actionable insights led to a reduction in reactive events, with critical issues now being identified and addressed proactively.
ArcGIS solutions, combined with high-quality field data capture, emerge as critical applications for all Three-Waters operations maintenance types. They empower stakeholders to make informed decisions, leveraging the power of location intelligence to improve network performance. This ensures safe water delivery to our communities.
This presentation will provide insights into why ArcGIS has become our chosen dashboard platform, within the Three-Waters industry. Suitable for users at all levels, it will explore the widgets and formatting options available catering to newcomers. For seasoned professionals it will be an opportunity for us to share a success story, providing new ideas around dashboard utilisation.

New Plymouth District Council is required to create a Stormwater Catchment Management Plan. Urban Catchment Management planning is an effective way of coordinating efforts to address multiple stormwater issues, i.e. flood management, freshwater management, aquatic habitat management and amenity values within urban stormwater catchments.

In the past these have been created using printed documents. The issue with these documents is that they are outdated from day one and gather dust for 20 years. To modernise the Stormwater Catchment Management Plan, GIS has been used.

This presentation describes the creation of a Modern Stormwater Catchment Management Plan. It shows how the use of ArcGIS Dashboards, WebMaps, ArcGIS Experience Builder and ArcGIS StoryMaps can help provide better formats and greater breakdown for different target audiences.

Sector Investment Pipeline: Building an Investment Plan
NZTA Waka Kotahi administers over $6 billion of public investment in land transport each year, plus $1.6 billion per annum local authority share, and crown direct funds with the total investment estimated to be over $24.3 billion over 2021-24. We have started pulling together a single source repository showcasing land transport investments across the motu through the Geospatial Intelligence Team. We are developing a repository showcasing a comprehensive view of all significant current and planned land transport investments that central and local government intend to invest in, out to 30 years.
In the initial build, the team have complied a consolidated database and pipeline of investments based on existing information and developed visualization of insights. This includes ensuring data and evidence standards for audibility, quality, access, and use frameworks, as well as data lineage and observability. The sector investment pipeline is designed to provide decision makers with information about forward investment intentions and gaps across the land transport sector to deliver long-term certainty, enable more effective planning, and reduce project costs.
