WIPCO vs Subsurface Maps Offline

WIPCO recently announced the release of the second generation of the company’s phone app called Mobile Customer Access (MCA). This updated phone application builds on the customer’s ability to access their account 24 hours a day, seven days per week, 365 days per year. In the past, utility customers could view balance information, make a payment, view statement and payment history, view usage graphs and access all their accounts at one time. With this the new release, utility customers will have access to many additional enhancements such as payment arrangement balances, programs they are enrolled in, enhanced usage graph, ability to sign up for notifications, report outages, view the utility outage map (if available), view the utility contact information, and view a message from the utility as they log into the app. The customer can even log into the application with a touch of their finger or facial recognition by setting up biometric login.

Subsurface Maps Offline is an app that allows existing Subsurface Maps users to download their maps from the cloud to their iOS device for use offline. Using this app you can view your map, turn layers on and off, make changes to any feature, and mark new points. Then when you are back at the office you can use the "Sync" button to upload your changes to the Subsurface Maps cloud where they will be accessible to the rest of your team. The regular browser-based Subsurface Maps application is still the flagship product where you must go to create layers, change colors, modify your field layout, draw lines, etc. The offline app is a less functional version that allows you to do basic data collection and viewing offline. How it works 1. These instructions assume you already have a Subsurface Maps account. 2. Install this app on your tablet or phone. 3. Run the app and enter your Subsurface Maps user name and password. 4. Select which map(s) you want to download to your phone/tablet. 5. Open your map, view it, make changes, add new points, etc. 6. When you are ready to upload your changes click Menu, then click Offline Maps, then click the 'Sync' button next to your map name. This will upload your edits and download any changes that others have made.
