About GIS Configuration

The Geographic Information System (GIS) feature is used to store and display geospatial data associated with different entities. The map tiles required for this functionality are provided by utility mapping service providers. The GIS feature of GE Digital APM is designed to work in harmony with the mapping service provider of your choice. You can select a mapping service provider or change the provider that you have subscribed to in the GIS Configuration page.
