Publiacqua and Arcoda: the digital utility excavation site
Publiacqua SpA manages the integrated water service for Ambito Territoriale Ottimale n.3 Medio Valdarno, an area at the heart of Tuscany spanning four provinces: Florence, Prato, Pistoia and Arezzo. To achieve its objectives of preparing as-built documentation, georeferencing networks and facilities, and digitising surveys, Publiacqua has equipped its operations technicians and network maintenance contractors with Arcoda technology across 46 Tuscan municipalities.
From data collection at the excavation site to the production of as-built documentation: an article on page 148 of the July–August 2026 issue of Servizi a rete magazine presents the innovation project jointly showcased by Publiacqua and Arcoda at Servizi a Rete Tour 2026 in Florence. In his presentation, Matteo Di Ruberto of Publiacqua’s Ufficio Direzione Lavori, Appalti e Manutenzione Reti (works supervision, contracts and network maintenance office) explains how the project to digitalise utility excavation sites addresses key operational needs of the utility: digitising surveys, speeding up the preparation of as-built documentation and improving the georeferencing of networks and facilities.
