BC Blue is implementing the latest smart utility technology to create more intuitive operational tools by integrating GIS and SCADA systems. BC Blue’s Digital Water Strategy Lead, Michael Karl, National Automation Lead, Derek Schell, and Automation Programmer, Michael Garber, show us how combining GIS and SCADA into a single dashboard can help remove information silos while also delivering an enhanced visualization of the relationships between different sites and systems the facility serves. This approach helps operators better understand impacts to the overall system, and further optimize their existing digital infrastructure.
