GIS application for the management of the paving in the Principat d'Andorra NEWS

GIS application for the management of the paving in the Principat d'Andorra The Department of Transportation of the Government of Andorra manages a road network of almost 300 km of general roads in a country with an average altitude of over 2,000 m.

The GIS Ferms project was created with the aim of developing an application to create a practical tool for planning medium and long-term measures to ensure safe, high-quality service with respect to the existing paving on the road network.

The chosen method involves creation of a relational database to store the data and an application that enables acces to the same in GIS format by means of a map. The result is thorough knowledge of the condition of the paving of the road network. Process automation and enhanced decision-making are also obtained. The application enables substantiation of decisions on the basis of empirical data.
