Upper Ganga Canal
Asset Management System
A practical guide to navigating the UGCAMS geoportal, exploring the canal network, analysing spatial information and managing mapped infrastructure assets.
Getting Started with UGCAMS
UGCAMS provides a centralized GIS environment for viewing the Upper Ganga Canal network, exploring divisions, analysing spatial information and accessing mapped infrastructure assets.
Main Portal Navigation
The main portal provides the interactive map workspace together with navigation controls for accessing the available UGCAMS applications.

The map interface is the primary spatial workspace of UGCAMS. Layer controls allow users to switch thematic information on or off and review the corresponding spatial information.
Basic Workflow
- Open the map and layer controls.
- Select the required thematic layer.
- Switch layers on or off as required.
- Review the resulting spatial information on the map.
Searching the Canal Network
The Canal Search function allows users to locate canal features through the search interface.
How to Search

Step 3 — View Asset Details
Select an asset to inspect its associated information and detail view within the geographic context of the portal.
Division-wise Network Exploration
Division Explorer is designed for exploring the canal network and associated mapped information division-wise.
Step 1 — Open Division Explorer
Select Division Explorer from the Management section.
Step 2 — Explore a Division
Select the required division and inspect its canal network and associated mapped information using the interactive map.
Canal Monitoring & Early Warning
The Canal Monitoring & Early Warning module forms part of the UGCAMS application structure. Detailed operating instructions will be added when the module becomes fully operational.
Reporting Functions
UGCAMS provides access to structured reporting and survey information associated with the canal network and its divisions.
Division-wise L-Section
The Division-wise L-Section function provides access to available L-Section survey records division-wise. Users can select a division, view the available L-Sections and open the associated PDF survey document.
Step 1 — Open Division-wise L-Section
From the portal sidebar, open the Reports section and select Division-wise L-Section. The L-Section dashboard displays the available UGC divisions together with the number of L-Sections available for each division.
Step 2 — Select a Division
Select the required division from the division cards. The selected division opens a list of the L-Sections currently available for that division.
Divisions where no L-Section has been uploaded are clearly indicated as having no L-Sections available.
Step 3 — Select an L-Section
After selecting a division, the available L-Sections are displayed as individual records. Select the required canal L-Section and click Open PDF to view its survey document.
Step 4 — View the L-Section PDF
The selected L-Section survey document opens directly within the UGCAMS PDF viewer. Users can review the document using the available PDF navigation and viewing controls.
Use the Back button to return to the selected division. The All Divisions option can be used to return to the division selection screen.
