GISinc’s new Cost Map for Water Utilities optimizes construction project resources and cost estimation using geospatial analytics for the first time ever! Cost Map is a web-based solution that integrates RSMeans data from Gordian API with the ArcGIS Platform from Esri. Cost Map provides a quick and reliable construction cost estimation process through hosted content, services and costing information.
By more accurately visualizing infrastructure costs on a map we can optimize total project resources using geospatial analytics. Pricing out material, labor, and equipment used to be a laborious task; now Cost Map brings this into an efficient integrated best practice.

Cost Map is powered by Gordian’s RSMeans data providing accurate and up-to-date cost information mapped to Esri’s Data Utility Model. Gordian is North America’s leading provider of construction cost data (material, equipment, and labor), software and services for all phases of the construction lifecycle.
The costs are extremely accurate because they are localized for over 900 3-digit zip codes covering the US and Canada.
Yes. Cost Map will include RSMeans predictive cost data that provides projected costs for 36 months into the future. Helping with the decision as to when to do the improvement.
No, it is a single subscription for the application containing RSMeans data.
Yes. We will be launching versions for other industries soon to include Waste Water, Storm Water, and Transportation. Stay tuned!
Level 2 named user accounts. As mentioned above, we support both ArcGIS Online and Enterprise hosted Web Maps.
