Getting Your Data Ready for Utility Network
What to Fix Before, During, and After Migration
Thursday, April 16, 2026 🕓 11PM PDT | 12PM MDT | 1PM CDT | 2PM EDT
Migrating from the Geometric Network to the Utility Network is not a one‑to‑one conversion. The Utility Network introduces a more detailed, rule‑driven data model designed to support advanced network management, tracing, and analysis. As a result, data that worked adequately in a Geometric Network can create issues during migration or limit functionality in the Utility Network, making it essential for utilities to understand what data needs attention and when.
This session walks you through the complete data cleanup journey: what must be corrected before migration (stacked points, geometry issues, connectivity gaps), what gets addressed during the migration process, and what cleanup happens post-migration to unlock UN's full capabilities. You'll see live demonstrations in ArcGIS Pro showing specific data corrections and how to identify issues in your own system.
You’ll learn:
- How Utility Network structure differs from Geometric Network - and why it matters for your data
- The "must-fix" issues that will cause migration failures (stacked points, invalid geometry, missing junction features, bad attribute data)
- What to tackle before migration vs. what can wait until after
- Live demonstrations: identifying and correcting common data issues in ArcGIS Pro
- How utilities are handling large-scale data cleanup with managed services (freeing internal teams for strategic Utility Networkconfiguration work)
- Practical next steps for assessing your data readiness.
Walk away with: A clear understanding of what data cleanup your Utility Network migration requires, when to do it, and how to approach the work - whether with internal resources or managed services support.
