Map Your Infrastructure in GIS with CUES’ Granite XP!
CUES, the leading manufacturer of CCTV pipeline inspection equipment and software, has released their Granite XP software solution for the water/wastewater industry. Click here to view the press release.

Granite XP is a comprehensive data collection and management software offering unmatched flexibility, customization, and ease-of-use to meet the growing needs of the pipeline inspection industry. Built using contemporary Microsoft Visual Studio ™ technologies and designed with an asset-based architecture, you can navigate to a particular asset (e.g., pipe segment or manhole) and view all inspections. Because this is the database structure on which asset management and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are built, data integration is seamless.

Features & Benefits
NEW! Granite XP now includes powerful and flexible Quick Find and Filter capabilities that allow you to search the Granite XP database for desired inspection record(s) based on specific criteria. This robust functionality will play an important role with utilities that need to prioritize their rehabilitation plans for an effective CMOM program.
