OSIsoft LLC unveiled a new version of the PI Integrator for Esri ArcGIS, which includes a new time-enabled technology that lets users rapidly explore the history of their operations within ArcGIS web maps.
This new technology helps conduct root-cause determination, fault analysis, and facilities comparisons by letting users rewind and replay data gathered from field sensors stored in the PI System and published to ArcGIS. For example, an engineer in a grid operations group could scroll through a minute-by-minute timeline of the spread of a wildfire to better understand how it impacted consumers and grid assets. The same data can also be used to make predictions, alleviate grid pressures or plan load shed events. A water utility, meanwhile, could trace consumer complaints about water taste or lackluster pressure back to specific treatment facilities, pumps, or reservoirs to pinpoint and more quickly fix the problem.
The PI Integrator for Esri ArcGIS can be employed to view the entire history of individual pieces of equipment or entire facilities or compare the performance of different assets in various locations. Customers can also use Esri ArcGIS technology, OSIsoft’s PI System, and the Integrator for long-term projects, such as capacity planning.
Released in 2014, the PI Integrator for Esri ArcGIS has been incorporated into the operations of OSIsoft customers in power, utilities, facilities and government agencies.
