Abstract An asset management system is disclosed that comprises a data storage arranged to store visual data indicative of a visual representation of an asset, the visual representation including visual representations of components of the asset, component data indicative of characteristics of components of the asset including operational data indicative of operation of the components, and spatial data including component location data indicative of location of the components relative to the asset. The system also includes a plurality of communication-enabled things disposed at the asset, each communication-enabled thing arranged to obtain operational data indicative of operation of at least one component of the asset and to communicate the operational data to the data storage, and a user interface arranged to facilitate access to the stored visual data, the user interface controllable by a user to display a visual representation of a selected portion of an asset. The system is arranged to facilitate addition by at least one user of at least one data point to the visual representation, each selected data point associated with defined operational data, and addition of a data point causes operational data associated with the data point to be available on the visual representation.
