GIS for Electric Grid & Gas Operations

Geographic Information System (GIS) is an indispensable tool for electric & gas utility companies. It forms the basis for effective asset management and

ensures regulatory compliance. Companies use GIS for various purposes,

ranging from managing field operations to conducting spatial analysis.

To fully utilize GIS technology, it is important to connect all the

people involved in the workflow, including field workers, engineers,

managers, decision-makers, and clients. Web-based GIS applications allow

you to keep your data in one centralized location, which enables everyone to

collaborate over the same geospatial dataset.

Asset Inventory and Infrastructure Insights

Having an accurate inventory of your electric utility assets, such as electric poles, transformers, cable lines, substations, pipelines, valves, and city gate stations are crucial. Mapping these assets using GIS can make managing. their data much easier, support a robust work management process in addition ensuring your data is traceable, verifiable, and complete. Additionally, GIS enables you to gain insights from the infrastructure. With a properly set up GIS suite, you can get amazing insights from infrastructure data by:

By analyzing usage patterns, UCS can recognize potential problems and risks such as power outages, over pressurization, while also maintaining oversight of energy consumption. Additionally, this approach can help UCS identify and address potential threats to the power grid and gas network.
