Implementation
ArcGIS Online Implementation Brings Web Maps to C-Spire
The Need
Headquartered in Mississippi, C Spire is the nation’s largest privately held wireless communications provider. C Spire provides wireless service to nearly a million commercial and residential consumers across more than 7,000 miles of fiber infrastructure.
The Background
Improving Workflows by Standing Up ArcGIS Online
Inthe past, C Spire had used a combination of Google Earth and KMZ files to manage network data. A typical workflow would require opening Google Earth, loading a KMZ file, and querying within Google Earth.
C Spire had invested in ArcGIS Online, however, and wanted to streamline its data use and workflows on a single enterprise GIS platform. It sought a vendor with experience in:
- Standing Up ArcGIS Online
- Creating Telco Web Maps
- Guiding Best Practices / Use Cases for Telco Web GIS
- Recommending Enterprise Use Cases for ArcGIS Online
- Consolidating Data into a Single Geodatabase
Why SSP for ArcGIS Online?
C Spire hired SSP because of SSP’s proven track record of success with web GIS. SSP was the 2016 winner of Esri’s Web GIS Expansion award.
