GIS for Energy Utilities
in New Zealand

Connect network, asset, and operational data to improve visibility, strengthen resilience, and support faster, more informed utility decisions.

Strengthen network visibility

Create a connected, real-time view of assets, networks, and operational activity across electricity and gas infrastructure.

Connect field and office workflows

Use connected desktop, web, and mobile GIS tools to maintain accurate network data and improve operational coordination.

Respond faster to outages and incidents

Improve outage response, crew coordination, and restoration planning with real-time operational visibility and network tracing.

Strengthen network planning and investment

Support grid modernisation, asset renewals, and infrastructure investment using spatial analysis and predictive modelling.

Improve field and maintenance workflows

Equip field crews with mobile GIS, connected workflows, and accurate network data to reduce rework and improve safety.

Support resilient future-ready networks

Use digital twins, AI, and advanced analytics to model risk, improve reliability, and support long-term network resilience.

Explore what’s possible with GIS

GIS supports every stage of utility operations, from network data management and field mobility to Utility Network tracing, digital twins, and 3D infrastructure analysis.

Field operations
Connect field and office network workflows

Use connected desktop, web, and mobile GIS applications to maintain network data, assign field tasks, and improve operational visibility.

This NZ Esri User Conference example shows how utilities manage network data seamlessly across office and field environments.

Utility Network
Maintain accurate Utility Network data

Use Web Editor and Utility Network workflows to keep network data connected, validated, and operationally reliable.

ArcGIS Utility Network supports connected asset management with topology rules, tracing, and data validation.

3D digital twins
Create and inspect high-fidelity digital twins

Use drone imagery, LiDAR, and ArcGIS Reality Engine tools to create detailed 3D models of substations and critical infrastructure.

Network Waitaki used Gaussian Splat technology to create immersive 3D utility infrastructure models for remote inspection and analysis..

Network tracing
Trace and analyse connected utility networks

Use topology-aware network tracing to analyse connectivity, identify affected assets, and support faster operational and outage response decisions.

ArcGIS enables utilities to trace connected network paths, analyse asset relationships, and model operational impacts in real time.

Real results across energy and infrastructure

See how utilities and infrastructure organisations are using GIS, spatial analytics, and digital twins to improve safety, planning, resilience, and operational visibility.

Our approach

We combine GIS expertise, technology, and industry knowledge to help organisations make smarter decisions, strengthen operations, and create long-term business value.

Strategic partnerships

Eagle designs and implements GIS solutions that align to operational goals, integrate with existing systems, and deliver value as needs evolve over time.

A geographic approach to problem solving

Combining spatial thinking with technical GIS expertise helps organisations better connect, manage, and understand their data to support smarter planning and operational decisions.

Training and support that builds capability

Through local training, experienced support, industry events, and knowledge sharing, we help teams build confidence, become more self-sufficient, and stay connected to the wider GIS community.

“Prior to our implementation, we had limited visibility into vegetation risks across the transmission network. This improved GIS and LiDAR process is enabling better planning and providing an easy-to-use tool for staff and service providers.”
