Utility Network en geografische coördinatensystemen

Hallo -<\/P>

Ik hoorde net in een workshop dat de Utility Network "niet goed werkt" met gegevens in een geografisch coördinatensysteem.   Ik dacht dat dit een van de voordelen van de Utility Network was ten opzichte van een geometrisch netwerk.   Kan iemand dit toelichten? <\/P>

Bedankt, <\/P>

Hi John –

While I can’t speak for either of them I’ve worked with two companies in

the past three years who were limited in their use of the geometric network

because of the requirement for projected coordinates. In one case the

company divided the service territory into different databases by region

each with its own coordinate system and geometric network. In the other

case the company chose to use geographic coordinates and forego use of the

geometric network.

I believe the first company is in the process of moving to the U/N – but

again, I’m not in a position to speak for them.

My exposure to Esri utility customers is certainly less than yours, but I

would imagine any company with holdings across the country or continent,

for example many pipeline companies, would want to use geographic

coordinates.

Hope this helps,

Ed
