Introduction to Gas and Pipeline Referencing Utility Network Foundation

Gas and Pipeline Referencing Utility Network Foundation can be used to accelerate a unified utility network and ArcGIS Pipeline Referencing implementation for gas and hazardous liquid pipelines.

It configures ArcGIS Enterprise, the ArcGIS Utility Network, and ArcGIS Pipeline Referencing to represent gas and hazardous liquid pipelines as a single pipe system with both connected topology and linear referencing. This solution features the Utility and Pipeline Data Model (UPDM) and includes common gas and pipeline data management workflows. It deploys foundational services, simplifying the creation of additional web and mobile apps and provides a desktop data editing environment and is typically implemented by vertically integrated gas utilities, and gas and hazardous liquid pipeline operators that want an efficient way to manage gas and pipeline assets.

Starting with Gas and Pipeline Referencing Utility Network Foundation means organizations don't have to spend their time and implementation budget on building custom data models and information products.

Gas and Pipeline Referencing Utility Network Foundation requires the following:

• ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9.1, 11.1 or later
• ArcGIS Pro 2.9 or 3.1 (Standard or Advanced)

Information products

Gas and Pipeline Referencing Utility Network Foundation includes the following information products:

Item	Description	Minimum user type
Gas and Pipeline Referencing Utility Network Foundation	A zipped file with an ArcGIS Pro project package with tasks, a configured utility network in a file geodatabase, editor and auditor maps, and an asset package geodatabase	Creator user type with ArcGIS Utility Network user type extension

When you deploy this solution in your ArcGIS organization, you also get an ArcGIS solution item that organizes the key information products and summarizes all the ArcGIS items (applications, forms, projects, maps, feature layers, feature layer views, and so on) included with the solution. The ArcGIS solution item also illustrates any dependencies items have on each other.
