| Accela GIS™ gives staff
direct access to view geographic representations of all land-use,
zoning, and infrastructure information associated with a parcel,
permit, inspection, or plan. By using the Accela GIS application,
you can reduce time in the field and lower associated costs through
map analysis.
Maximize Time in the Field
Field inspectors spend a lot of time traveling to and from
inspection sites and often, travel time comes at the expense of
being able to complete additional inspections. Route optimization,
an optional feature of Accela GIS, can help minimize the time spent
traveling between various inspection sites by mapping the most expedient
path based on the locations of the inspections scheduled for that
day. Inspectors maximize their time in the field and complete more
inspections per day.
Automate Map Analysis
Accela GIS enables bi-directional data exchange between your
GIS database and your agency’s land management system. Alerts
can be created that trigger when an end-user tries to initiate a
permit or license that fulfills a certain geographic criteria. If
there is a potential violation, the permit is automatically stopped
in the process, saving time for agency staff and minimizing frustration
for the applicant.
Create Multiple Map Layers
Map layers created with Accela GIS are available to every
employee across multiple departments. Enabling staff to look up
property, land-use, and zoning information as well as water, sewer,
and electrical maps with just one click means that decisions are
made more quickly and applications are processed much faster.

geographic information specific to the active case, application,
or permit
» Improves decision-making
by presenting maps that provide review personnel with
current information
» Provides excellent and
clear means to communicate with staff, council, and
constituents by providing maps and other enterprise data
» Automates complex, repetitive
tasks such as generating mail lists for variance notifications
» Allows GIS technical staff
to concentrate on critical, complex tasks by enabling
non-GIS staff to generate complex map displays and run reports
