ONE EXAMPLE we are working on now does all of this, and I’d like to INTRODUCE it to you now…

56. We all saw how SUPERSTORM SANDY wreaked havoc on the EAST COAST last year.
Extreme weather like this as well as TORNADOS, WILD FIRES, ICE STORMS and ALIEN INVASIONS can all wreak havoc on a utility’s NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE
UTLITIY’S RESPONSE can take a toll not just on PEOPLE and CUSTOMERS, but on a utility’s REPUTATION

57. Storm Impact Analysis So, we are combining
The UTILITY GIS information you already have
With our powerful REAL-TIME WEATHER DATA
And the ARCGIS PLATFORM
CREATE an application To help utilities better PREPARE for, RESPOND to and RECOVER from natural disasters

58. Storm Impact Analysis Demo
Sean Graebner
So go ahead and take a look, then I will recap it at the end
Here is Sean with the demo…

59. Analytics Utility GIS Data + Weather Web Services Analytics =
Storm Impact Over Time
SERVED up GIS, WEBMAP via AGOL/PORTAL, REAL TIME WEATHER WEB SERVICES
Esri GEOEVENT SERVER ALTERS STORM CORRIDORS GEOFENCES
PERFORMED ANALYTICS to determine the IMPACT of the storm OVER TIME
QUESTIONS -
WHERE, HOW BAD, HOW LONG
KEY BENEFIT is improved CREW MANAGEMENT
Where should I put them
SERVICE AREA
Will they get there in time to help
Do I have enough crews
It is safe for them
Hold over, call outs?
Do I need outside help
Do I have the right crews and replacement equipment on hand?

60. Combining Utility GIS and Weather Data
Miles and Minutes Count
Plan for crew resources and network assets
Immediate response – all clear – lightning and wind
Reduce restoration time and costs
Optimize damage assessment – lightning strikes
Ensure crew and public safety
Keep the public informed and on their side
“One poor storm performance can cause
significant reputational damage”
- PSE&G – Distributech 2013
So when you combine WEATHER INFORMATION to UTILITY GIS you have the ability to
better prepare BEFORE THE STORM
This allows you to save MILES AND MINUTES with crew management and network assets
DURING THE STORM You can optimize your RESPONSE
ALL CLEAR for safety
AFTER THE STORM reduce restoration time and costs
All the while ensuring crew and public safety
and keeping the public informed and on your side

61. Advanced Analytics How does this relate to other factors
Weather and outage history
Vegetation management history
Esri Industry Templates – ArcGIS for Utilities
VALUE ANALYTICS ENGINE
CALIBRATE ENGINE
ESRI has an example STORM RISK ANALYSIS GP model as part of their INDUSTRY TEMPLATES in AGOL
ANOTHER INPUT into our analysis to further REFINE its ANALYTICS ENGINE
TAKE Esri’s INDUSTRY TEMPLATES FURTHER
BEST PRACTICES GIS BENEFITS
Go to Esri’s Tuesday morning session to hear more about their expansion of industry-specific offerings and ARCGIS for ELECTRIC

62. Esri ArcGIS Marketplace
