#PLS CADD LIDAR POWER LINES SOFTWARE#
In 2004, HECO contracted John Chance Land Surveyors and Power Engineers to. What we provide for Transmission Lines Cal Engineering Solutions, or CalEngS will utilize industry standard PLS-CADD and PLS-POLE (Wood, Concrete, & Steel) software to design your transmission needs. The client was provided with accurate location and elevation of the entire distribution and transmission system network. The use of PLS-CADD with aerial LiDAR data is a key tool in managing these assets.
#PLS CADD LIDAR POWER LINES UPDATE#
This deliverable is used by SDG&E to update the GIS data for structure and conductor locations and condition assessments, as well as informing vegetation management and change detection.įinal Product, Outcome and Client Benefits Once collected, the data was processed and classified by our LiDAR Analysts then a PLS-CADD data set was delivered. The data was collected using a topographic LiDAR system mounted to the underside of a helicopter flying at 500-feet above ground level at approximately 35 knots over ground. Along with the LiDAR data, imagery from three different cameras was used to produce orthoimagery, as well as oblique imagery from forward and aft looking points of view of each structure within the network. NV5 Presented at Power Line Systems’ 2019 PLS-CADD Advanced Training and User Group Conference JEvents, News NV5 The frequency and intensity of extreme weather events emphasize the importance of innovative engineering and design approaches to reduce the risk, exposure, and vulnerability of utility infrastructure. The center 75-foot swath was classified to SDG&E’s TE-0135 specification for ‘Surveying, Aerial Photography and Mapping of Overhead Transmission and Distribution Line Corridors’, while the remainder of the swath was left unclassified, but available for further classification if needed. This data set covers approximately 8,900 miles of a 400-foot power line corridor with a three-dimensional point cloud at a resolution of at least 50 points per square meter. The objective of this project is to collect high-resolution aerial LiDAR data covering the entire San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E) network of power lines and structures.
I’m also owner of OHLENG which is a Overhead Line Engineering. Experience in using PLS-CADD, PLS-TOWER, PLS-POLE and AutoCAD programs. Experience in complex electric transmission design projects from 11kV to 765kV overhead utility systems. GSi was awarded a follow-on project with SDG&E to manage the LiDAR system wide mapping collection and QA/QC.
