Underground Construction
Using SkylineGlobe’s robust and comprehensive API, you can freely design a customized 3D geospatial web or desktop application that effectively supports the management and maintenance of utility industry systems. In SkylineGlobe’s 3D photo-realistic environment, assets can be properly monitored, and proposed expansions and changes can be accurately evaluated. Immediate access to extensive live data, displayed in a geospatial medium supports prompt response to asset malfunction.
Visualize information in a geographic context
With SkylineGlobe, transportation routes and stops can be overlaid on a street map, along with dynamic information on traffic jams and construction zones, This enables service crew managers to easily plan travel routes and minimize the time required for a service call. Accurate 3D visualizations of subterranean utility infrastructure can be generated, which can be freely explored and queried.
Improve reliability
By using Skyline software in conjunction with tools for gathering real-time information such as traffic conditions from sensors with live data feeds, or electrical parameters readings, in electrical utilities, asset defects can be promptly identified and repaired.
Analyze utility effectiveness and vulnerabilities
SkylineGlobe can be used to assess the effectiveness of current service route patterns and facilities. Walking distance to connecting transportation and route length can be measured using SkylineGlobe’s measurement tools together with new tools created using SkylineGlobe’s powerful API. These measurements combined with information layers, regarding ridership by route, bus stop, and peak times, can be used to easily visualize which routes need additional buses or stops or where additional shelters should be built.
Integrate information
With SkylineGlobe’s technology, disparate utility information can be integrated into a single command environment. This increases efficiency, reduces cost, and provides rapid access to enterprise data from multiple agencies and sources. Because Skyline software is based on open OGC standards, such as WFS and WMS, it can operate as a seamless 3D interface with existing legacy systems within an organization.
Utilities and Transportation Applications
Skyline software simultaneously supports utility management and customer service:
Operational Management and Maintenance
The visual presentation of crucial operational data in conjunction with geographic data facilitates infrastructure and asset management. With SkylineGlobe, managers can visually monitor the real-time location and movement of vehicles, mobile teams and repair crews. They can then use this data to reroute buses because of road closures, to automatically hold a vehicle at a transfer stop, until the arrival of a vehicle with transfer passengers, or to assess work performance.
With support for indoor 3D exploration, SkylineGlobe helps utility managers better understand their service area needs and their resources for meeting those needs. Visual display of relevant properties (such as work orders for inspections, and required frequency of inspection) for every segment of a utility’s infrastructure makes it easier to keep track of maintenance tasks, deploy field crew efficiently, and plan transportation routes. All information layers are seamlessly linked with the SkylineGlobe 3D environment.
Customer Service
With SkylineGlobe’s 3D visualization technology, transportation services can easily create a SkylineGlobe web page that displays routes and stops, along with prominent buildings and other landmarks overlaid on a street map, so customers can accurately visualize the information they require. The SkylineGlobe implementation can be designed to convey the same look and feel as the transportation company’s own site, displaying their logo, brand colors, fonts and styles.
With SkylineGlobe’s support for a wide range of geospatial data and interface to standard GPS feeds, information layers can be added with real-time data regarding a bus or train’s actual present location, route detours, and estimated arrival times. Advanced measurement tools can be created, using SkylineGlobe’s powerful API, to provide customers with trip planning services, generating for them recommended routes based on shortest walking distance, most comfortable foot route, fewest transfers, and proximity to connecting transportation.
