Abstract


Business Process and Efficiency Improvements using Field Portable GIS Solutions
Track: Electric and Gas
Author(s): Herman Dyal, Joe Johnson

Utility Automation Integrators (UAI) has a field portable staking and map viewing software called uaField. uaField integrates with ArcInfo8.1 and enables the full GIS to be available to staking engineers and lineman in the field. In addition to full pan and zoom, tracing, attribute information, and search functions for customers, transformers, switches, etc., staking engineers can design a construction job and submit it for automatic updating of the central GIS and integration with work management systems. Clay Electric Cooperative in Florida has implemented this technology to reduce labor requirements for GIS data maintenance and gains in business process efficiency.
