Northwest Edison is an industry leader in energy efficient lighting services, and always strives for 100% customer satisfaction. We provide lighting solutions for commercial, industrial, private and government sectors throughout the Western United States.
Synthos helped Northwest Edison incorporate GPS and GIS technology to their Street Light Energy Retrofit Program. Northwest Edison wisely purchased a highly accurate Trimble GPS receiver and associated software to provide accurate location of light poles and to gather key information about these locations, equipment, and replacement activities. The GPS units helped them gather information quickly and accurately. However, they were not sure what to do with this information.
We helped them select GIS software to meet their needs, develop procedures and workflows, and trained their field staff to use the GPS and GIS software seamlessly in support of their primary work responsibilities. This allowed them to get a competitive advantage in the Street Light Retrofit market and deliver the required data to State regulators in the industry standard formats requested.
GIS AUDITING AND MAPPING
Northwest Edison uses geographic information systems (GIS) for making precision auditing and mapping decisions. We rely on GIS technology to provide an efficient, integrated platform for planning and analysis, workforce automation and situational awareness.

By taking full advantage of GIS technology across each project, Northwest Edison is prepared to successfully manage the latest industry challenges.
Northwest Edison is an industry trailblazer when it comes to implementing GIS technology solutions for streetlight conversion and retrofit projects. Streetlights present distinct challenges due to their complex geographical nature and the sizeable amounts of data points to manage. In circumstances where streetlights need to be mapped out and data collected, GIS is an invaluable tool.
Without accurate data on existing streetlight inventory from a current GIS audit, it is virtually impossible to properly maintain, repair or upgrade to LED lighting. By utilizing Northwest Edison’s GIS knowledge and expertise, you get precise installation information and pole location, making it easier to pinpoint exactly where future maintenance and repairs are needed.
No guesswork, no unnecessary field verification, no missed or incorrectly marked lights, no problem.
