1. ) A method for recording a condition in connection with a component of a linear asset infrastructure, the method including:
- a) entering information at a computing device via a graphical user interface to identify the component or a sub-component of the component;
b) performing a search in the database on the basis of the information entered at the computing device to generate a set of possible conditions that may affect the component;
c) displaying to a user at the computer the possible conditions, whereby the graphical user interface allows the user to select a condition among the possible conditions that matches the actual condition of the component to be recorded;
d) in response to the selection creating a condition record in the database that associates the component with the selected condition.
