It would be great for power companies to have a more comprehensive view of vulnerable folks in the service territory. See my blog that quotes our friend Pat Dolan. https://energycentral.com/o/esri/blanketed-darkness-struggling-breathe

Great book with lots of customer stories

Great article - Also the link to NREL's SEAM discussion is fascinating. The DOE has long since worried that our transmission system is sub optimized.

Thank Jeff. As we discussed I have been heavily involved with EPRI on with the grid model data management initiative which has a heavy involvement with CIM. John Alsup of Esri is working with CIM as well in relation to the UN. When you are ready, we could have a Teams call about this.

Thanks Brian for posting. Note that the Transmission Special Interest Group will meet on Tuesday afternoon of IMGSIS. This is a great opportunity to connect with your peers working with GIS for Transmission.

Hi AndreaB - I know ChatGPT is great - I'll mention to Jeff that you love his blog. Anyone else have any comments.?

Hi Robert- I just wrote a draft of a customer success story in which the municipality updated the utility's GIS directly via ArcGIS Online, then the utilty automated the process to update their GIS with layers from the muni. Couldn't the transmission companies do the same thing in concept using web services.

Jeff Shaner is a leader in the field of GIS mobility. He's been at Esri for over a quarter of a century. This blog post is terrific. He's asking ChatGPT questions about GIS mobile maps. Chat's answers are priceless. check out the blog https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/field-maps/field-mobility/maps-on-mobile-devices/ I'd love to get your reaction. Bill

Hi Robert - thanks for posting - you have been a very active participant in the Esri Community - we thank you. This group is dedicated solely to those involved in transmission and generation. I have been a moderator at the UC and IMGIS transmission SIGS for a number of years and have always wanted to have our own community group. NOW WE DO. One topic that always seems to come up is the ability of ArcGIS to produce really complete system diagrams. I know Great River has done this successfully. Can we start a thread on system diagrams?

We now have over 30 members in just a couple of days. Let's start the conversations going.

Hi Clayton, We have just set this community up. I will be getting the names of the folks who participated in the Transmission SIG. I will have invite them, since this is a closed group. So we don't have many members yet. I To your observation, you are correct, transmission companies have been slower to migrate to the UN, but I'm expecting an uptick this year and next. We are working on a new initiative to update our Business Value of the Utility Network technical paper with input from UN specialty partners - this should help.

Check out my blog (inspired by my colleague Pat Hohl) on the utility use of GIS mobility https://www.esri.com/en-us/industries/blog/articles/electric-utility-gis-mobility-reading-list/?adumkts=social&utm_source=social&aduc=social&adum=external&adusf=linkedin&sf_id=7015x000000aYlKAAU&aduca=mi_employee_advocacy_hootsuite_amplify_soc_ex&adut=57ad022e-0a1b-4d5b-87e3-32bbf7659b76

Here is your chance to hear Esri employees from all different departments speak about their views and experiences building, selling, deploying, and creating apps for ArcGIS Utility Network. Should be fun.
