STREETLIGHT MASTER PLANNING
Powered by GIS
Driven to Innovate
Evari leverages GIS to create informed streetlight master plans that optimize lighting placement and efficiency. By analyzing spatial data, we identify key areas requiring improved illumination, ensuring safety and energy efficiency. Our data-driven approach allows us to visualize and plan for future growth, making our streetlight solutions both sustainable and adaptable to changing urban landscapes.
Read about a few of Streetlight Master Planning projects below.
City of Pittsburgh, PA
The City of Pittsburgh LED Streetlight Conversion project represented a major advancement in improving the city’s public spaces. Evari played a key role by analyzing diverse data sets, including missing elements in the Streetlight Database, and enriching them with crucial details. Utilizing the EvariLUX tool, Evari conducted lighting analyses, produced comparative data visualizations, and helped the City select the best lighting manufacturer, moving beyond the practice of choosing the lowest bidder. Evari’s digital support and integration of photometric calculations into project documents ensured smooth progression of the streetlight conversion. The company also guided the City in establishing lighting equity, taking into account various socio-economic factors, and implemented a phased, map-based installation approach. Updates to the WebGIS dashboard and meticulous tracking of operational and equity metrics allowed for insightful monitoring of the project’s progress, energy savings, and costs.
City of Santa Ana, CA
Santa Ana is working to better understand and plan for upgrades to the City's street lighting infrastructure, which includes approximately 16,000 street lights. Evari developed a city-wide street lighting master plan to provide the city with an updated street lighting system which will invest funds into analyzing existing street lighting, develop target guidelines for City street lighting based on industry standards, identify potential near-term projects, and propose cost scenarios for both capital improvements and programmatic maintenance requirements.
City of Albany - Public Works Department
Evari worked with the Public Works Department of the City of Albany to transfer spatial data into a centralized database and to display geodata through a variety of web frontends. Evari’s work enabled the Public Works Department to query, manage, and visualize tree inventory data, streetlights, street signs, and other essential street furnishings within a digital GIS. The Evari team was primarily responsible for building web front-ends and mobile applications to facilitate inventory and maintenance efforts.
