1. GIS DEVELOPMENTS AT FEA E. Naitini 24.11.2010

2. CONTENTS INTRODUCTION USING FEA_GIS HIGHLIGHTS FOR 2010 FUTURE PLANS CONCLUSION

3. INTRODUCTION GIS reintroduced to fea in 2004 SOPAC assistance GPS and GIS training

4. Completed field data capture Viti Levu and Ovalau FEA_GIS stores Overhead Line Distribution System info, capture maintenance works records, Underground Cable system info etc.

5. USING FEA GIS Network Design Designs new extension / upgrades to existing Dist. System

6. Preliminary design can be done from office

7. Ability to combine different data sets; satellite images, topo maps, scheme plans (CAD) from Developer makes GIS important tool for Designers.

8. Major Projects Proposed Nadarivatu – Nacocolevu 132kV Transmission Line. GPS coordinates from Engineers > map onto GIS > overlay with NLTB data > identify land owning units.

9. Distribution Team FEA_GIS used to plan and capture maintenance works, locating assets in the field when attending to faults, part of reports. Now part of the requirement for planned shutdowns to include GIS map.

10. Distribution Team New poles for new schemes have PoleID tags to number on site. Data capture of new extensions to the grid

11. ICT Optic fibre for communication and SCADA needs of FEA. FEA_GIS used to determine best route to follow > calculate distance, materials, labor and cost.

12. HIGHLIGHTS OF 2010 Nadarivatu optic fibre

13. Streetlight audit

14. CYCLONE RESTORATION

15. FUTURE PLANS Started capturing consumer meters. Network modeling, load flow on GIS MapInfo good for introducing GIS to FEA, currently meeting needs of users Enterprise wide GIS.

16. CONCLUSION What more can be offered? Databases Capturing consumer meters On going training on how to use FEA_GIS
