CDP Workflows in Action

These diagrams show how data, decisions and revenue flow inside the City Development Platform – from Revenue Intelligence to Approvals, Compliance and Service Connections. Switch views to match the conversation you’re having.

LIVE MUNICIPAL OPERATING SYSTEM

How CDP Works

From ground reality to revenue intelligence

CDP connects GIS, Building Management, 3D Virtualization, Tracking and Drone Intelligence into one municipal operating spine. Every permit, inspection, site image and meter reading lands in the same model – so cities can move from reactive firefighting to proactive revenue and service planning.

Use this flow in discovery sessions to explain how the five solution tiles plug into a single platform rather than standalone products.

1 · Ingest & Unify

Bring city data into one spine

CDP ingests data from building management, GIS, billing systems and legacy spreadsheets into a canonical property and asset model.

GIS becomes the map-based backbone, while Building Management, 3D Virtualization and Drone Intelligence continuously enrich each parcel with plans, imagery and on-the-ground evidence.

2 · Orchestrate

Run end-to-end workflows

CDP automates approvals, inspections and service connections with configurable workflows, SLAs and e-signatures.

Building Management drives permits and completion certificates, while Tracking coordinates field teams and site visits – all against the same property record.

3 · Analyse & Act

Turn insight into revenue and compliance

Revenue Intelligence cross-checks permits, services, meters and billing to surface under-billing, missing connections and non-compliance.

Dashboards blend GIS views, 3D/imagery evidence and Tracking feeds, giving executives a live picture of risk, growth and revenue upside – all traceable back to CDP.

CDP Solution Types

From ground truth to revenue – five connected capabilities

Use this section to walk a client through how CDP solves their problems in layers: map the city, manage development, see it in 3D, track field work, and survey with drones – all feeding one municipal operating spine.

How to use in a demo

Start at 01 · Spatial Intelligence, then move right. Each card links into a live environment or deep-dive demo.

01 · Spatial Intelligence Ground truth

GIS – Property & Asset Intelligence

Turn disconnected maps into a single property and asset view. CDP GIS centralises parcels, buildings, services and infrastructure into one authoritative layer that planning, engineering and revenue can all trust.

• One property spine for land, buildings, and services
• Map overlays for permits, valuations, meters and risk
• Perfect starting point for every other CDP module

02 · Permit & Compliance Building Management

Building Management – Applications to Occupancy

Digitise the full development lifecycle: submissions, circulation, comments, decisions and completion certificates. Every approved project is traceable on GIS and ready for billing.

• Online intake for applicants, agents and professionals
• Configurable workflows with audit trails and SLAs
• Automatic handover to inspections and revenue teams

03 · Immersive Insight 3D & Street-Level

3D Virtualization – See the City in Motion

Use street-level imagery, 3D models and point clouds to communicate change, inspect sites remotely and bring infrastructure projects to life for councillors and the public.

• Virtual tours of key corridors and precincts
• Street viewer for inspections and disputes
• Laser point cloud overlays for engineering teams

04 · Field Operations Tracking

Tracking – Routes, Missions & Site Visits

Coordinate inspectors, field teams and partner organisations with live route visibility. See where missions are, how long they take, and which assets or permits they relate to in CDP.

• Real-time route tracking across urban and rural corridors
• Link missions back to properties, permits and assets
• Powerful story for public safety, agriculture and logistics

05 · Aerial Insight Drone Intelligence

Drone Intelligence – Low-Altitude Survey Layer

Capture up-to-date imagery, crop health, disaster impact and infrastructure condition with low-altitude drone flights. Output is indexed back to CDP parcels and assets.

• Rapid damage assessments after storms and fires
• Agricultural and environmental monitoring
• Regular asset-condition surveys tied to GIS

Identify the root cause

Designed for a 30 minute consult. Every step ends with a configuration question.

In most South African cities, data, workflows and revenue live in separate systems. Before we talk about technology, we first need to agree on what actually hurts the city the most today.

The City Development Platform (CDP) links land, building, services, metering and billing into a single municipal operating spine. We can dial modules up or down depending on whether your priority is visibility, approvals, or revenue.

Which of these root causes hurts your city the most today?
