Abstract
Asset management system is a crucial element of a utility project because it helps a company to inspect the asset inventory systematically. Besides, it improves productivity and proficiency of companies to position them better and increases their return on investment. The traditional system of data collection is very tedious in producing an asset inventory system. This study offered a mobile mapping system (MMS) by using 360-degree cameras to reduce the time and cost involved in data acquisition. The aim of this study was to locate, digitise, measure, and tag the assets along the street network. The efficiency of these 360 technologies was investigated to obtain asset data for a 3D street view utility mapping and provide important information. The obtained image will be used to determine the location of observed asset. The digitising process was required to label the detailed asset information as well as map the asset. This technology consists of a combination of camera, Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), and Inertial Measurement Units (IMU). The efficiency of this technology was tested by mounting it on a vehicle such as car or motorcycle. The geo-referenced images were derived by using sensor models and were pro-cessed to produce a 2D information mapping for utility purposes. The study resulted in producing a digital map with Geographical Information System (GIS) spatial data and 360-degree imagery. Having such a system in place allowed to track the overall achievements of asset inventory, and thus utilised efficiency.
