Data Management

Streamline the data loading process

Express Loader is a powerful tool for securely loading large amounts of data into a PODS database. Whether you’re involved with new construction, loading new acquisition or survey data, or performing annual maintenance, Express Loader will save you time and resources by simplifying the data loading process.

Express Loader’s robust functionality will calculate and assign linear referencing to ensure the highest integrity of the pipeline data is loaded into the database. Express Loader allows you to designate the data sources and the target databases where data will be loaded. You can also create expressions to ensure the source data complies with the requirements of the target database — eliminating the burden of manually editing data. Additionally, users can save the mapping configuration and reuse it, which increases productivity.

Express Loader also understands the relationships between parent and child tables within PODS and can load both types of data within a single transaction to either new or existing lines. Built-in filters validate the data to discover potential issues and track the corrections. Users can even “pre-load” the data to make sure the data is ready for loading … and if it’s not, Express Loader allows you to easily rollback the load.
