Your Data Has Problems Your Geometric Network is Hiding

There are four data issues that block almost every Utility Network migration. The Geometric Network ignores them. The Utility Network will not. Here is what they are.

Most utilities discover their data problems after go-live

If you migrate to the Utility Network and have absolutely no data issues once you get there, your data is amazingly good. Almost everyone else deals with problems they did not see coming.

After hundreds of thousands of hours migrating and managing the data for utilities serving over 20 million meters across the United States, SSP identified four data issues that consistently occur, regardless of utility size or commodity type.

None of these are new problems. Your Geometric Network has been carrying them quietly for years. The difference is that the Utility Network’s topology model is strict. It will surface every one of them.

The time to find and fix data gaps is before migration, not after go-live. Cleaning up data in a system you know is far easier than cleaning it up in one you are still learning.
