I need assistance on the development of our Electric Utility Network. I am working on expanding the completion of the entire network. I have all of our transformers, fuses, services, conductor, etc built and connected.  Now, I am trying to add data to the Bank devices (Transformer Bank - Electric Assembly) and connect/link/associate to a transformer (Electric Device). Ultimately, a 3-phase transformer bank assembly would have 3 transformers associated to it. Same thing with a 3-phase fused cut-out disconnect bank - would have 3 cut-out fuses (different phase assignments) associated. Having a difficult time finding documentation on how to use ArcGIS Pro tools to make these connections. Also, would be help on how I connect Structure Junction (MV/LV Pole) to an Electric Line (MV/LV Conductor). Appreciate it   ... View more

Greetings: I have created a manual process of creating a route within a File Geodatabase with the Add Locations and Solve geoprocessing tool, also building it into a model within ModelBuilder. However, the goal is to export the model to a stand-alone Python script to incorporate into an already established batch file.  The issue I cannot solve is when I run the script outside of GIS, it keeps saying the path to the Network Analysis Layer does not exist. I also cannot figure out the proper path syntax for the route layer.  Doing something wrong? ... View more

Greetings: We have a large number of Hosted Feature Layers on our AGOL platform that are used by a variety of AGOL applications (Fields Maps, Workforce, Survey123, Dashboards, etc). The issue I am having is many of these Hosted Feature Layers require the Enable Sync setting to be enabled, otherwise it messes a lot of things up and I get constant complaints.  What I need to do, and not sure how, is to create a log file that is automatically emailed to myself on a nightly basis running a QA/QC audit against these Feature Layers and provide a log report identifying which ones are and are NOT properly Sync Enabled. My ideal way of doing this is via a stand-alone Python Script.  Appreciate any guidance to get the process/script started. Thank You ... View more

I know this is a very common task in the GIS world, but this is a new project/special request for me that has landed at my desk and need some guidance on how to proceed. We have a series of electric/water accounts broken up into billing/reading cycles and we use to, back in the day, add a read sequence identifier to each record. Fast forward 2 decades and that has become old practice. NOW, I am asked to redo the read sequence for all of the services in all the books that will assist with a variety of other tasks. What I need to do is use the Network Analyst in ArcGIS Pro to create a route for each reading book. However, the final output needs to produce a numeric sequential identified for each "stop" within that route from start to finish that I can then append into our overall billing database.  According to the research I have done, I am not sure how to produce that sequential numerical identifier after creating a route. EDIT: In the Route Layer - Stops, there is a field "Sequence" that I am trying to get auto-populated based on the route calculations. On the first attempt, the fields are all populated with "1", so apparently, I did something wrong.  Appreciate any guidance.  ... View more

Good day. I have a series of Power Automate flows for our Survey123 platform. Many of the Survey123 reports that are submitted are time sensitive and are required in order to proceed with other task(s) within the company.  There are times that a flow fails to run and I am not aware of it until management complains that they haven't seen a specific PDF report. Trying to come up with a solution that I am notified (E-mail) if a flow fails and/or a nightly E-mail log/report showing the successful completion of all flows and any failed/error flows. Any guidance would be appreciate. ... View more

I am currently building our Water Utility Network and working with the Blow-Off features within our infrastructure. Trying to determine the best path for connectivity.  Presently, I have the Blow-Off feature within Water Devices - Flushing and Blow Off. However, the connection from a water line - service (Blow-Off) isn't connecting.  Is there a different connection I am not aware of OR do I need to update the connectivity rules to allow that to happen? Appreciate the feedback.  ... View more
