Extensies/add-ins voor District Heating Networks

Question

Hallo daar!<\/P> Ik wil graag de community vragen of er aanvullende ArcGIS add-ins en extensies zijn (naast Utility Network) die worden gebruikt voor het werken met District Heating\/Cooling netwerken?<\/P> Ik ben geïnteresseerd in functies zoals:<\/P> - automatische creatie van optimale netwerkconfiguratie op basis van klantlocaties<\/P> - berekening\/voorspelling van de verwarmingsvraag van klanten<\/P> - optimale pijpmaat; pompmaat; installatiegrootte<\/P> - analyse van verwarmingsonvoldoendeheden in het systeem<\/P> - andere waardevolle functies die je bent tegengekomen in ArcGIS extensies of add-ins<\/P> Bedankt voor alle input over dit onderwerp!<\/P>

Hi Oskaras,

Really good questions around the application of ArcGIS to address the needs of the District Heating and District Cooling industries. Here are some thoughts:

* The ArcGIS for DHC2020 data model provides a best practice configuration of the ArcGIS Utility Network  for District Heating and District Cooling networks. You can download the data model with documentation from the Esri Community site.  Here is a direct link to the downloadable material.
* The Esri Business Partner, Comsof has an ArcGIS Pro plug-in named Comsof Heat. Comsof Heat provides tools for Planners and Designers who are tasked with determining and planning for customer heating demand.
* Keep in mind that the ArcGIS Pro tools include Utility Network tracing tools to help DHC organizations understand where the water flows and where the energy flows, as well as what valves to close during an outage event.

Hope this helps
