2. Input data for network development studies

Reliable data is a prerequisite for high-quality distribution network development studies.

In this context, the use of a high-performance geographic information system (GIS) is essential for understanding the organization and characteristics of existing structures. In the absence of such a system, it generally takes a very long time to model the detailed description of source substations, networks and MV/LV substations in a calculation tool. It should also be noted that these models can rarely be reused in subsequent studies.

2.1 Geographic information system

The Geographic Information System (GIS) of an electrical power distribution company offers the possibility of exploiting the geographical component of technical distribution network...
