The network of a utility is vast and spread over a large area. It is complex and grows over time depending upon the overall growth of the area. Management of this large volume of information, consumers, connections and meters, requires a proper system that maintains the data effectively and allows it to be accessed efficiently.
Proper documentation of utility’s network over the geographic map allows knowledge of assets in the field. Representing the complex nature of network connectivity and assets is only possible through enriched validation. Proper geographic co-ordinates and parcel mapping provides the ability to locate the assets in the field and the correct electrical connectivity facilitates tracing through the network. Indexing of assets and consumers provides a unique identification of each and every item.
