Features: Power Geographic Information System (PGIS) is an interdisciplinary science and technology that utilizes Geographic Information System (GIS) technology, integrating the operation, maintenance, management, power marketing, and customer service of power systems. It aims to achieve safe power grid operation, maintenance, management, and the normal functioning of business activities. PGIS is one of the important directions in the development of power informatization. Based on the author's practical experience in PGIS construction and the demand for modern high-technology in power system development, this book focuses on practicality and systematically elaborates on the planning, project implementation and development, as well as the technical and methodological aspects of PGIS engineering construction, operation, and maintenance. It provides a detailed discussion on the development of PGIS, the application and development technologies of transmission and distribution GIS, and distribution GIS and its spatial database design and application. This book offers significant practical value for researchers and practitioners in PGIS to gain a comprehensive understanding of the theory and methods of PGIS. With 12 chapters, it explores and discusses PGIS technology and methods from eight perspectives. Its main contents include: GIS and its applications in power systems, Global Positioning System (GPS) and digital photogrammetry technology, GIS engineering analysis and design, and GIS engineering implementation, transmission and distribution GIS, distribution management systems and distribution automation systems, distribution GIS and its spatial database design and application, development strategies and technologies for PGIS, and an introduction to common platforms. This book provides great reference value and guidance for teaching, research, product development, and engineering implementation and application in PGIS. It is suitable for production and operation management personnel in power enterprises, students majoring in relevant fields in universities, as well as researchers, educators, and marketing professionals engaged in power informatization.
