Spring is here, and so are new ways to make GIS work harder for your field operations. In this Issue 48 of the Fulcrum Insider, we’re diving into practical, field-ready strategies to maximize your GIS tools. From tracking assets to defining boundaries and speeding up inspections, this issue covers practical...

Field operations have become more complex, but most tools still treat them like an afterthought. IDC Research, Inc., a global provider of technology research and advisory services, explains how modern field applications help teams move faster, make better decisions, and reduce friction between teams. This analyst brief explores where field...

Field audits don’t happen in ideal conditions. When teams walk into hospitals, universities, or correctional facilities, they face restrictions, complexity, and pressure to move quickly. Lucid Consulting Australia knows that reality firsthand. The firm delivers engineering audits across highly regulated environments where accuracy and speed cannot come at the expense...

Managing water and sewer systems takes more than plotting points on a map. Crews need to understand how everything connects — where flow begins, where it ends, and what lies in between. Applying GIS for water utilities builds a connected view of the network, improving how teams plan inspections, prioritize...

Horizontal construction projects never stand still. Segments shift. Boundaries change. Field conditions evolve throughout the day. Crews need accurate, up-to-date maps. Outdated prints and rough sketches lead to delays, rework, and safety risks. The solution is clear geospatial construction data, captured where the work is actually happening. This infographic shows...

If you’ve ever been building a Fulcrum data collection app and thought, “There has to be a smarter way to do this,” this webinar is for you. Join us for a live session with Bud Miller — senior surveyor, FAA drone pilot, and long-time Fulcrum power user. Bud has spent...

From tighter timelines to shifting regulations, engineering and consulting firms are facing more pressure than ever. But the teams that adapt fastest aren’t relying on brute force. Instead, they’re using smarter field tools, stronger GIS integration, and platforms that flex as fast as the work does. Fulcrum Insider Issue 47...

Most geospatial data problems begin in the field. When crews rely on tools that don’t match how they work, the result is slow inspections, missing information, and records that GIS teams have to fix. This guide shows how to solve those issues at the source. Fulcrum gives field teams mobile...

For water and wastewater utilities and electric companies, the field is where plans meet reality. Service depends on fast decisions and accurate utility data. The dynamic nature of field operations presents a significant opportunity. You can bring powerful geospatial intelligence from the back office to frontline teams. A modern approach...
