1 AED-SICAD and ArcFM UT Product Suite: Two Case Studies: Brabant Water, Netherlands and VSE, Slovak Republic German Software Engineering by AED-SICAD Florian Brandi-Dohrn, AED-SICAD

2 Who are we? One of the leading GIS application development companies in Europe We focus on 3 primary market segments Utilities Cadastre Local Governments Geographical Europe, Middle East, Rest of World We develop on the leading GIS platform - ESRI s ArcGIS Technology Our offering COTS Software: State-of-the-art and ready-to-use GIS applications Professional Services: Specification, installation, customizing, data migration, training

3 AED-SICAD: Key Facts Our company German Company (Offices Sites in Bonn, Munich, Berlin) More then 200 employees in AED-SICAD AG Three subsidiaries More than licenses and >2000 customers all over the world > GByte of data are managed by AED-SICAD software Financial situation Debt-free High liquidity Profitable

5 ArcFM UT: Product Structure UT Editor UT Asset Mgr UT View Electricity Gas Water Heating Sewage Telco UT Web UT Mobile UT Reader UT Designer UT Integrator UT Base Extensions

6 Successes 2008 / 2012: Overview Case Studies: Brabant Water, Netherlands VSE, Slovak Republic (Electricity) From top 5 German electricity companies: Three use ArcFM UT 86 ArcFM UT implementations Nearly all customers full Enterprise GIS implementation

7 Brabant Water, Netherlands Main pipeline system km House connections Inhabitants 2.4 million GIS ArcFM UT users 20 data editors 120 field employees: mobile users 175 geo data viewers in office 30 spatial analysts

8 Brabant Water: Software Architecture Mobile: 120 Desktop: 20 / 30

9 Brabant Water: Screenshot Brabant Water: Editing Data conversion done by ATOS Origin Customizable data model / alpha masks

10 Brabant Water: Tracing Brabant Water: Tracing Isolate network Find affected customers

11 Brabant Water: Tracing

12 Brabant Water: Tracing Brabant Water: Tracing Customer addresses: Integrated with ArcFM UT Integrator EAI with the CRM

13 Brabant Water: Importing DXF

14 Brabant Water: Importing DXF Brabant Water: DXF Cut & paste Adapt alpha-numerical data

15 Brabant Water: ArcFM UT Web

16 Conclusions ArcFM UT Implementation Objectives Migration : All data migrated System open and adaptable IT integration (CRM) big success Standard COTS application software (ArcFM UT no specific developments): First System update cycle without problems passed Experiences Extensive user training reflects in excellent data quality Inclusion of users in design decisions Keep time boxes for unforseen tasks Involve and benefit from AED-SICAD and ESRI experts

17 Current Situation Brabant Water is currently on ArcFM UT V9.3.1 Brabant Water is currently planning the migration to ArcFM UT V Brabant Water asked and will receive from AED-SICAD a number of change requests as product enhancements Automatic determination of cut-off clients Default values configuration Configuration of sort order for numbers in text format

18 Východoslovenská Energetika a.s. (VSE) Company Profile Energy utility company Member of the RWE Group since 2003 More than points of delivery Mission = provide reliable and complex services which correspond to the needs of customers Sold more than 3,2 TWh in 2010 Average number of employees = Shareholders National Property Fund: 51 % RWE: 49 % Distribution area km 2 HV Lines: km MV Lines: km LV Lines: km MV / LV Distribution stations: 5 108

19 Project Phase I: GIS and Data 1. Technical architecture (HW,SW) 2. Data Model (ArcFM UT+VSE) configuration 3. Migration tools MV, HV = ArcGEO v Specific tool for each data source v DGN+DB UT MDB UT SDE 4. Data migration = VSE v Preparing data v Using / extending migration tools v Correcting / post-processing data MV migration = 04/ /2009 HV migration = 02/ /2010

20 Data Migration Example MV SAP: Source of organizational data 9 sources of geographic data Source of technical data Automated tool for Generating Station ISP (using tabular data only)

21 Data Migration Result - MV MV + 1: MV + elevation MV + aerial imaging basemap basemap

22 Low Voltage (0.4 kv): Digitalization / Data Collection Overview: Start = 07/2009 Duration = 5 years Accuracy = submetric 3rd class Internal and external forces Results: Estimation: km cables km overhead lines

23 Project Phase II: GIS Integration GIS became a master source of the distribution network of VSE: Geographic data Detailed technical records of electricity distribution devices (HV, MV, LV) Data update process (distribution network) = managed by the GIS department

24 GIS SCADA (offline export) > Initial & Incremental scheduled export > Input = MV data (divided into tiles) > Output = DXF+CSV files (SCADA FTP upload) > In operation since 9/2008

25 GIS SAP PM, ETRA, Maximo (online integration) External systems SAP PM > All HV and MV objects > Data handling in GIS ( image to SAP PM) GIS (user edits) ETRA > SAP ID back to GIS > In operation since 3/2010 Maximo > All HV and MV objects > Data handling in GIS ( image to Maximo) > State of equipment back to GIS > TR (Transformer) MV/LV > Create TR in GIS > Update TR in ETRA > In operation since 3/2010 > 6/2010 (pilot), since 6/2011 (sequential roll-out)

26 GIS SAP IS-U (Online Integration + Scheduled Pull Export) Customer data (source SAP IS-U) Service point (based on the current grid configuration) + coordinates of customer (source GIS) Consumption data mirrored to the GIS In operation since 9/2009

27 GIS SAP FI-AA Integration Ownership information of equipment (source SAP FI-AA) Asset accounting number mirrored to GIS All MV objects Much faster report generation for Regulatory Authority In operation since 3/2010

28 GIS SAP Integration: Benefits Storing data in a single primary system (GIS) Reducing data management workload Removing old isolated legacy applications for technical data management Reducing number of SAP clients in VSE Solving online communication of SAP IS-U with GIS Much faster reports for regulatory authority Prepared environment for implementation of a very important project = HIFFI (MAXIMO - grid maintenance management)

29 GIS Network Calculation System (Offline Export) All HV, MV, LV objects Off-line export directly from GIS In operation since 11/2011

30 GIS Integration at VSE - Evolution

31 GIS / IT Landscape

32 Project Aspects External systems require new attributes / objects / relations VSE DM changes drive the process make projects sequential VSE data model: DM v1 v22d Large coordination effort Stringent deployment plan & coordination of projects is essential Up to six projects running simultaneously at VSE Dev AG Dev VSE Test Prod Bugfix (Test) Align activities with 3rd parties impl., testing, deployment

33 VSE Future Plans Upgrade to ArcFM UT V10 ArcFM UT V GIS data providing for external use (outside company) Portal solution ArcGIS Schematics v10 Implement solution for generating diagrams (othogonal schemes of distribution power network for all voltage levels)
