ATLANTA : May 9, 2006
GeoFields, Inc., a recognized leader in managed data solutions for the oil and gas pipeline industry, today announced new enhancements to DataFrame ASG, a leading automated sheet design and generation application for pipeline operators. DataFrame ASG provides a user-friendly environment for creating complex, high-quality sheets with control over design, data content, and output format.
DataFrame ASG removes many of the obstacles facing sheet generation processes today. Built on the flexible ESRI ArcGIS platform, DataFrame ASG gives users control of all aspects of sheet design including access to dynamic, interactive data schematics that can be tailored to meet a wide range of specific needs.
“We’ve taken the concept of sheet generation and put creativity back into the process. With DataFrame ASG there are endless possibilities in template design, producing any size page and any number of data bands, whether it’s for alignment and construction sheets, or sheets related to integrity management, risk assessment, or right-of-way management purposes,” said Scot Twining, product manager at GeoFields.
Specific enhancements and notable capabilities with DataFrame ASG include:
- Support for multiple pipelines within the same right-of-way in all data bands. Separate representations of each pipeline are drawn in alignment with the map.
- A key-code function that provides dynamic overlay, coding, and labeling of linear pipeline attribute data, such as pipe specifications and coatings.
- A new line chart band for the display of data such as elevation profiles, direct assessment and close interval survey readings, and drain volume values.
- Dynamic tables and labeling based on a wide range of data sources.
- Support for APDM, PODS, and various operator-specific pipeline databases.
- Support for raster catalog image data, image tiles, and web image services.
