The evolution of Esri’s Utility Network Model and ArcGIS Pro technologies is driving utilities to explore, plan, and prepare for GIS migration. Depending on their goals for working within the Utility Network, for many utilities, data quality and completeness at the time of migration may impact functionality and their ability to meet those goals. Utilities may be unsure of their current state of readiness, where to begin planning, or what path they need to take.
Combining our knowledge and experience with utility GIS data and leveraging tools we built to specifically address Utility Network Migration, UDC’s Data Assessment Program evaluates your data through a series of programmatically driven routines to assess your data’s quality, completeness, and suitability for the Utility Network model. Our program delivers the steps necessary to migrate your unique data at the level of functionality required to meet your business objectives.
Even if you aren’t migrating now, our assessment equips you with a deeper understanding of your data, enabling you to improve your data quality through a specialized data improvement plan. Our services and deliverables included with this program provide a stand-alone business process that your utility can leverage down the road for your future data migration if that’s your goal.
Our in-house migration tool, HEIDE, will be leveraged to automate and expedite the analysis of your database. The primary roles of our HEIDE tool are:
Data Readiness Assessment
HEIDE interrogates and analyzes your database to derive.
- What will prevent your Utility Network migration
- How your utility can improve the quality of your data
Migration from any Geometric Network to Esri Utility Network
- Provides QA/QC matching source to Utility Network
- Creates the asset package allowing for manual configuration
- Provides capability to run networks in parallel, allowing for as little disruption to your current workflows as possible
