The delivery of utilities takes much energy in itself, and GIS systems can help save money by maximizing safety--covered here in a survey of GIS connections to energy provision. A fictitious utility, AnyTown Energy, is used as a case study to follow its conversion to GIS, with case studies adding details on GIS real-world applications. Utility executives, technology managers, and any GIS professional or library catering to them will find this coverage essential and important.
