Service Line Inventory Field Data in Texas
Locate curb stops and meter boxes, trace service lines and record GPS points and photos for your LCRI inventory.

What gets collected
At each address on your list, crews locate the curb stop and meter box, trace the service line where it can be traced, and record a GPS point, photos and field notes. Anything visible at access points is photographed so your team can classify material from the record.
Why it matters for the inventory
Lines listed as unknown count toward the replacement workload under the LCRI. Located, photographed and mapped service connections give your engineer and your state reviewer something concrete to work from, and they tell replacement crews exactly where to dig.
How it fits your program
Use it for a full sweep of the unknowns, for statistical sampling areas, or to verify a predictive model before you commit replacement dollars. Data is keyed to your account numbers or addresses so it drops into the inventory.
Service Line Inventory Field Data questions
Do you determine the pipe material?
Crews record and photograph what is visible at access points such as the meter box. Classifying material for the inventory stays with your utility or engineer, using that record and any excavation you choose to do.
Can you work from our address list?
Yes. Send the list or a GIS layer of the unknowns and the data comes back keyed to the same IDs.
