Create Inspections from GIS

Create Inspections from GIS

Select GIS assets from the map and create a new inspection(s) for those assets. Keep in mind that each inspection can only have one asset attached. So, if multiple assets are selected, a separate inspection record will be created for each selected asset. First, learn how to select assets using one of our selection tools by visiting our article Select Assets on the Map. 

 

  1. Select desired asset(s). 
  2. Selected assets are listed in the right side menu. Confirm selection is correct. Delete any assets selected by mistake. If you are not seeing this menu, click the "Assets" tab on the right side of the screen to pull out the menu.
  3. Click Add New at the top of the right side menu. 
  4. Select New Inspection.Screen_Shot_2020-09-30_at_4.09.05_PM.png

  6. Click Add. 
  7. A window will pop up with the newly created inspections. Click to open an inspection record in the Inspection Module.
