ITP’s Zoom-N-Save™ programs can be custom designed for each municipality to meet their individual needs.  There are some basic features and benefits that the program offers. 

• The program used by ITP is able to take existing ARC/GIS mapping that a municipality may be using and integrate it into its system, thus working  with established asset identifiers, not duplicating any existing data points or creating new ones. The data collected from the zoom camera is then uniquely identified by this pre-existing and known identifier.  This minimizes the possibility of data errors.  Where no previous ARC/GIS information is available, the program builds a new mapping system that is coupled with the collected data.  This will help that municipality in its sewer system management and performance, reducing costs and avoiding emergencies.
• After the data is gathered in the field, qualified office technician (trained in WRc-based sewer condition classification method) review all the inspection videos, and use survey software to record the defects observed, and calculate priority grades using WRc standard of grading and language.
• The query and reporting feature of the service give the municipality the necessary data to generate a Master Plan to address their maintenance issues.  In addition, any repairs made after the preliminary inspections, can be updated and date-stamped, so historical data can be maintained and accessible to future planners and managers in the municipality.
