Use spatial network records in the clearing workflow.
Ticket clearing
Clear tickets accurately. Report monthly.
CLI combines configurable buffer-zone logic with trained-technician review to determine whether a ticket can be cleared or requires a field locate.

Clearing method
Rules, trained review, and a visible result.
Each ticket moves through a defined decision path before it is cleared or routed to a locate.
- 01
Apply buffer logic
Configurable zones compare the request against the network information provided for the contract.
Configurable rules - 02
Review the ticket
A trained technician reviews the ticket and the available record before status is assigned.
Trained decision - 03
Return the status
The ticket is recorded as cleared or locate required, then included in the reporting record.

Data and integration
Work with the network files already in use.
CLI's documented clearing formats support common GIS, CAD, and image records.
CAD
DXF and DWG
Bring contract drawings into the review record.
Images
JPEG and TIFF
Use mapped image files where they are part of the source record.
Operations
Locatorbase
Connect the ticket decision to the wider operating and reporting record.

Contract accountability
See what was cleared and what required field work.
Monthly cleared-versus-required reporting gives the facility owner a plain operating view. It supports review of volumes, decisions, and the tickets that moved to the field without relying on an unexplained dashboard.

Clearing questions
What contract owners ask about clearing.
01What does a clearing decision produce?
Each ticket is recorded as cleared or locate required, and the decision is included in the reporting record.
02What network file formats does the clearing workflow support?
Documented clearing formats cover ESRI Shape, DXF and DWG drawings, and mapped JPEG and TIFF image files.
03How is the clearing work reported?
Monthly cleared-versus-required reporting gives the facility owner a plain operating view of volumes, decisions, and the tickets that moved to the field.
04Who reviews the ticket before it is cleared?
A trained technician reviews the ticket and the available record before any status is assigned. Buffer logic alone does not clear a ticket.
