SIDEWALK MANAGEMENT FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
Keep Sidewalks
Safe & Accessible
Understand your pedestrian network, track condition, and plan improvements with a GIS-powered sidewalk management solution built for local governments.
Sidewalk Management That Keeps Communities Moving
Sidewalks are more than concrete lines on a map; they’re critical connections in your community that support mobility, accessibility, and safety for all users. SAM IS® helps you inventory pedestrian assets, assess conditions, and plan improvements that keep sidewalks, ramps, and curbs functional and compliant.
Built to work with your agency’s existing GIS data and powered by Esri’s ArcGIS Online, SAM IS lets you collect sidewalk, curb, and ramp data in the field and view it in context on intuitive maps and dashboards. You can see where ADA compliance gaps exist, track completed work, and communicate your findings with confidence.
Take Control of Your Pavement Network
From insight to action, SAM IS helps you understand, plan, and manage your pavement assets with confidence.
See Your Sidewalks Clearly
SAM IS brings sidewalk, ramp, and curb data together with GIS mapping, dashboards, and reports in one easy-to-use platform. Capture field data, visualize conditions, and turn raw information into clear insight you can share with staff and decision-makers.
Plan Ahead with Confidence
Analyze sidewalk condition, identify ADA compliance gaps, and evaluate maintenance or improvement scenarios. SAM IS® helps you forecast needs, prioritize work, and make budget decisions that keep sidewalks safe, accessible, and compliant.
Manage Work Without the Guesswork
Schedule, track, and record maintenance or repair actions while linking inspections, surveys, and improvements directly to each sidewalk asset. Keep a complete history of work, monitor progress, and plan efficiently across your network.
Why Sidewalk Data Matters
Invest Smarter, Keep Communities Safe
Sidewalk condition changes over time due to use, weather, and infrastructure aging. Understanding these changes is key to maintaining safe, accessible, and ADA-compliant pedestrian networks. Well-maintained sidewalks cost less to repair over time and provide safer, smoother travel for all users.
SAM IS helps you move from reactive repairs to proactive planning by giving you the data and tools to justify budgets, prioritize improvements, and coordinate projects across departments, keeping sidewalks safe, functional, and accessible for your community.
