Road Assessment and Maintenance Management (RAMM) are a suite of applications to maintain and manage Road Asset data. RAMM software is used widely across New Zealand by NZ Road Controlling Authorities (RCAs) i.e. Councils and NZTA, engineering consultants and road maintenance contracting companies. RAMM functions include Asset maintenance, Asset valuation, Asset assessment, Forward Work Planning, Inventory based Asset management.

This section will walk you through building a RAMM hosted Feature feature layer that sits in your ArcGIS Online or Portal for ArcGIS Organisation. By simply, imputing a RAMM Service URL you have the option to then define specific attributes to pull through and change alias fields to make a more readable output for users. You can then synchronize your layer to bring in any adds, deletes or updates on a scheduled basis. 

Although the RAMM Layer is created through LocalMaps, its usage can go well beyond just the LocalMaps application. Accessible to the entire ArcGIS Platform, RAMM layer then be consumed in any web map, web application or in Desktop apps like ArcGIS Pro. 

RAMM Integration is a Premium module within LocalMaps. Annual subscription costs apply. To inquire about pricing please contact sales@eagle.co.nz or to request a license directly, go to the RAMM section and follow instructions below.
