At 1Spatial, our mantra is enhancing global safety through intelligent data management. Here’s a real-life incident from an electrical utility’s field operation: A field crew received a work order to deactivate a transformer for maintenance. Precision in high-voltage operations is paramount, necessitating exact data on the network’s locational interconnections. During a routine verification call to the GIS department, the crew intended to confirm the target transformer’s location. They uncovered a discrepancy: the system indicated the transformer was situated in the city’s southern region, yet they were stationed in the north. Further scrutiny led to a startling discovery—19 transformers shared identical unique identifiers within the records. The deployment of an automated rules engine would have preemptively corrected these inaccuracies, reinforcing the system’s dependability. In the realm of GIS, the integrity of locational data is synonymous with safety. Reflect on this: How reliable is your data?

Modern IT systems, built with integrated design and GIS, can enable engineering, operations, and GIS departments to work together using connected systems that improve infrastructure planning, analysis, and data capture. Utility employees replace manual and paper-based methods with robust digital design solutions to work smarter, faster, and more accurately. Ultimately, forward-thinking utilities can use innovative solutions to build safer, more resilient, and more sustainable networks. Learn how utilities can optimize construction and asset management using standardized designs and robust modeling. in our latest blog: https://hubs.la/Q02wf2v30 #Utilities #construction #assetmanagement #GIS #engineering #operations
