Abstract
Reliable information is the foundation stone of good IAM. Data Systems are required to facilitate the storage, query, report, and output of infrastructure assets’ characteristics through standardized codes. Coded data from sufficient information is needed to characterize the assets and to encapsulate external aspects that affect their performance—including the asset condition decay—introduce the risk of failure, or affect the asset’s ability to effectively handle the demand or service for which it is intended. Good database management systems are fundamental to handling asset information given the large number of assets found under each infrastructure system and the multiple dimensions of attributes associated. This chapter provides a review of asset information, asset inventories, and data collection techniques.
