Presentation Details

Utilities are on the forefront of data driven workflows that require continuous integration between systems and departments. This integration needs to be adaptable, so that not only can utilities be successful in the present, but have the assurance that they are on the road to success for future unknowns. How can a utility ensure their particular needs are met when they may not know their specific question/problem yet? One example of changing needs that a utility may face is how FortisBC has adapted to increased frequency and severity of wildfires by automating near real time assessments of Wildfire threats to customers and assets. Another is how Alabama Power has made use of drone flight imagery to save costs and increase staff safety for inspections and storm evaluations for inaccessible feeders. Come see examples of how utilities have tackled the changing landscape of application integration.
