Facility Manager
Facility Manager is a flexible pipeline data managements software that GIS technicians can rely upon to ensure the integrity of corporate pipeline data. The application creates a custom toolbar within ArcMap to perform critical centerline maintenance including creating new lines, performing pipe reroutes, and merging pipelines.
The user experience within Facility Manager is highly customizable. Centerline maintenance can be performed in both a graphical environment within ArcMap or using a tabular interface in a separate window. The tabular interface allows users to edit data in both grid (horizontal) and card (vertical) views, drag and drop columns, view multiple tables concurrently, and apply a variety of filtering and sorting options. This creates a more fluid workflow for the individual so they can perform maintenance much more efficiently.
Facility Manager was built to allow for dynamic editing of PODS events and domain tables. Users avoid the need to re-deliver the application when upgrading to new versions of PODS or making modifications to their existing PODS data model.
The application works in conjunction with New Century’s SpatialSynchronizer software to keep ArcSDE graphics synchronized with events in PODS. Similarly, centerline edits automatically cause PODS features to move to their corresponding locations.
We also recommend Facility Manager WebEdit for pipeline operators interested in an online data maintenance application for field technicians. This web-based tool enables field personnel to submit pipeline data and maintenance records to an online staging database.
