Government and Public Sector

Providing solutions for the current landscape

A data-driven approach enables smarter decision-making, enhances resource allocation and ultimately fosters more sustainable and liveable cities.

The rapid pace of Urbanization

With over half the world’s population already living in cities and a projected increase to 68% by 2050—poses significant challenges for governments and city planners.

Growing demands of the Community

As urban areas grow, so does the demand for housing, efficient transportation, essential services like healthcare and education, employment opportunities, and resilient infrastructure.

The power of Connected Data

Cities must harness the power of connected data. By leveraging open data practices, urban planners can integrate information from sensors, mobile devices, and social media to uncover valuable insights into population trends, mobility patterns, and community needs.

Success Stories

Powered by Locus Expertise

Full Control of a critical data pipeline

Wellington Electricity relied on daily retailer files to keep their network records accurate but inconsistent formats made automation a real challenge. Partnering with Locus, they built a fully automated FME Flow pipeline that now runs daily with no manual touchpoints and no third-party dependencies.

90% Faster Data Processing

NZTA, Waka Kotahi was spending a full day manually downloading, compressing and sending photo attachments for newly installed network devices. By integrating FME into their survey workflow, that same process now runs in just five minutes.

50% Faster Biosecurity Reporting

Auckland Airport handles over 18 million passengers a year, making biosecurity monitoring mission-critical. Manual inspection reporting was slow and eating hundreds of GIS hours annually. By partnering with Locus and the help of FME and Esri automating the workflow, they cut manual effort in half.

Real Time freight visibility across the rail network

KiwiRail operates 900 freight trains a week and handles 18% of New Zealand's imports and exports. Manual GIS updates were taking hours every time a disruption hit. Using FME, they built a live freight disruption dashboard eliminating manual overhead and keeping freight moving.

60% Faster Water Data Requests

Auckland Council was taking up to 10 days to fulfil water resource data requests, a manual, approval-heavy process serving a city of 1.7 million people. By automating submissions, approvals, and data delivery with FME and Esri, that turnaround is now just 3–4 days, with better service and no manual bottlenecks.
