GDE features – Graphical Editor (1/2)

Easy-to-use graphical user interface gives short training time

Intelligent graphics (symbols know their meaning) for extensive validation

Context sensitive menus give correct hierarchies and object relationships

GDE features – Graphical Editor (2/2)

Network topology derived from graphics ensures correct topology

Object relationships derived from graphics ensures correct and consistent data

Deep copy and paste makes reuse of work possible

Template library gives organized working methods

To Do list makes sure data is plausible before loading

GDE features - Multi record form

Benefits: General changes are easily done

Reduces engineering costs

Visual inspection of changes

Increases the data quality

GIS Data Import – Customer Situation

Huge initial data transfer Frequent updates of small data volumes

Several times each day

Both model data and picture data Not all data can be found in the GIS system

It must be possible to add data in GDE New objects, e.g. RTU Extra parameters; e.g reference to Indication

Which Data Can GDE Import?

GDE can import data models that equal Network Manager data model Mapping can be done outside the import tool

Import media is CSV files (Comma Separated Values)

Flexible specification in user friendly forms of Scope of data to import

Order between data fields

Database Population in on-line environment

Network Manager supports introducing changes directly in the on-line server does not require any switchover!

Affected objects are automatically taken out-of-service during update

The new database with modified objects can be tested in true real-time environment. If the test is accepted the engineering

change can be approved. In case of a negative test result, the

engineering change may be rejected.
