Mapping Energy Justice: How GIS Can Help Understand Rural Electricity Challenges in India
Introduction My name is Shrishti Sharma, and I am a PhD student in Geospatial Information Systems at Claremont Graduate University and a Technical Writer at Anytrek, California. I’ve always believed that the most meaningful research begins with a simple question born from real life. For me, that question is: why are some…

UC26 Demo Theatre Recap - ArcGIS Dashboards: Efficiency Throughout the Project Life Cycle
Project teams are expected to move quickly, communicate clearly, and keep stakeholders informed from kickoff through closeout. ArcGIS Dashboards helps meet that challenge by bringing operational data, maps, indicators, lists, and rich context into one shared view. During UC26 we presented ArcGIS Dashboards: Efficiency…

Unexpected Update Subnetwork Behavior
All - I'm finding that, once dirty areas are cleaned up, that Update Subnetwork usually returns expected results. But sometimes not. In the example below I built a subnetwork for feeder 17FL012010 - its the gray line at the bottom. Thing is, all that appeared is what seems to be a line graphic. There is no new entry in the…

Question on creating association
Hello Community, I am newbie in working with Electric GIS utility network. While going through association concept I do understand that it can be created using Modify association Panel, however I am unable to understand the functionality clearly. Can anyone help me with any kind of Esri tutorials or videos that can give…

Adverse effects from setting StructureLine connectivity to "AnyVertex"?
Hi - Our source data has *many* cases where a surface structure (pedestal, junction box, cabinet, etc.) is connected to an underground structure line (conduit or duct bank) at a mid-span vertex. We were advised by one party that retaining this configuration (allowing connections to "any vertex") in the UN could have…

ERROR 003856:* The max value of the domain exceeds the bit size of the network attribute while applying asset package
Hello Team, While loading the electric asset package, we are receiving the following error after the complete deployment of the Utility Network: *ERROR 003856:* The max value of the domain exceeds the bit size of the network attribute. P.S. We have checked available articles which gives the reason however we are unable to…

Duplicating ConductorDetail rows on a Split
We just started trying to use the ConductorDetail table to hold rows describing conductor phase and neutral wires. I noticed that when we split a conductor these are not duplicated to both new features. Is there a way to configure this behavior in the UN database? Thx, Ed

Static Versions for Change Detection in the UN
Hi all - In our current implementation use use several "static" versions to assist with Geodatabase change detection. For example, there is a nightly process that compares a static version with SDE.Default to determine which feeders have changed in order to inform the OMS interface which feeders need to be extracted and…

Utility Network and AutoUpdaters
In our current 10.x world we make significant use of ArcFM AutoUpdaters to perform important business logic (like many utilities). We're implementing the UN and now considering how to replace that logic. (Quite a bit is not accounted for out of the box.) On the one hand it seems that ArcFM XI supports handling of edit…

Update subnetwork and de-energized equipment
Hi - Here's the utility network scenario: I open a fuse protecting a single phase tap on feeder ABC123. I validate and save the edit, stop editing an update the subnetwork for ABC123. The features I de-energized by opening the fuse still have a subnetwork name of ABC123, even though they are currently not part of any…

Utility Network Migration Toolset Workflow for Electric - Part 2 of 2
Introduction Happy Holidays Esri Community! My name is Jess Gooch, and I am a Senior Solution Engineer at Esri. In this blog I will walk you through some new tools that were released this year that help infrastructure customers with their migration from the Geometric Network to the Utility Network by assessing data…

Designing Effective Computer Vision Prompts for Utility Field Operations Using Images in ArcGIS Survey123
We’ve all heard the sentiment that a picture is worth a thousand words. Through the advancement of AI technologies, this idea has become more tangible than ever. Computer vision is an interdisciplinary field of AI, generative AI, deep learning, and machine learning that harnesses the power to identify objects, read text,…

ArcFM Composite Favorite Equivalents in ArcGIS Pro?
I've been looking but can't find this so thought I would ask. Is there anything equivalent to ArcFM Composite Favorites in ArcGIS Pro, or do we need ArcFM XI for this? (A "composite favorite" is a collection of features placed together in single edit operation. A typical example is a switch cabinet with multiple bus bars,…

Enterprise UN vs FGDB
Hi, We manage a small municipal electrical network using Utility Network (UN) Version 4 on Enterprise Geodatabase 10.8. With no immediate upgrade plans, I've successfully created a local file geodatabase using an asset package and UN Version 7. I'm now evaluating whether to continue development in the Enterprise…

Representing Solar Customers in GIS
We currently have a point feature class representing our Meters in our Geometric Network (ArcMap/ArcFM), and a separate point feature class placed generally in the customers parcel representing they have Solar. What we are interested in find out is how other Electric Utilities model their Meters where the customer has…

Guidance around Offline data
Currently we have a 10.9.1 UNv5 ESRI Deployment with a partner solution deployed. We are seeking to take our feature data offline (while tracing would be optimal it is not currently available to our Mobile end users). We have approached this is a few different ways 1 - we used our online viewer map (configured in a similar…

Coincidence between utility domain and structure network features
All - Working with a vendor we were told that the Utility Network would consider it invalid to have a structure network junction coincident with a utility domain device or junction. This seems illogical and I'm looking for a reality check. In our GN implementation we have separate underground structure and electric…

Electric Utility Network Subtransmission and Substation Tiers
Hi - We are starting discussion on out Utility Network model and are considering adding tiers for sub-transmission and substations. The sub-transmission tier would hold equipment energized at 34.5kV, 25 kV and 23kV - which are distinct from both transmission and distribution tiers. So we feel pretty safe there. But (we…

Enumerating Subnetworks via API
I am trying to enumerate all subnetworks so I can programmatically call exportSubnetwork via the REST API. I cannot find anything in the documentation that shows there is a means to do this via the REST API. Is my only choice here to use arcpy or do a DB dip to look at the subnetworks table?
