Writing upon request. There has been some effort to generate some linear asset functionality within Archibus as a extension. However, we are asking that the features are available as a more permanent module or be part of asset management. Such assets to manage include but are not limited to: sewer, water lines, wastewater, roads, sidewalks, eletrical lines, telecommunication lines and more.

Archibus would ideally need to be able to do the following:
- track inventory - linear assets tend to have tracking related to the length (for example, in km), condition, age, risk, remaining life
- ability to view linear assets that have permits and activities to them (which often are only in affect from a certain point to an end point)
- view long term lifecycle events - events that are forecasted to affect asset CI, remaining life, condition & predictive maintenance
- detoriation curves for assets for the purposes of planning and forecasting long term lifecycle
- create capital budgeting plans and projects around linear assets where work is only done at a specific starting point to an end point - a kilometer tracking
- create work orders associated to a linear asset of where work is needed from a starting point to an end point, usually by kilometers.
- map based reporting to show the linear assets as well as search criteria of certain kilometers

Note: it is possible to not track at the kilometer level because many GIS data is capturing linear assets in segments. So it is possible to pinpoint a segment where an activity/issue/event is.
