Geodatabase Replication Available in ArcFM™ Solution 9.1.2 SP1

Service Pack includes several new enhancements

Fort Collins, CO -- Telvent Miner & Miner announces the availability of the ArcFM™ Solution version 9.1.2 service pack 1. The ArcFM Solution is an enterprise solution for editing, modeling, maintaining, and managing facility information for electric, gas, and water/wastewater utilities.

This latest install includes many fixes and quality improvements in addition to several enhancements:

  • Geodatabase Replication allows users to quickly synchronize a personal geodatabase with the most recent version of an SDE geodatabase. This tool provides Mobile clients using ArcFM, Designer, ArcFM Viewer or Redliner with access to the most recent enterprise data. The field user receives only changes that have occurred since the previous update, resulting in a quick synchronization process.
  • A CIM-compliant XML standard interface is available within Designer’s Workflow Manager. This allows utilities to easily build interfaces from Designer to other CIM-compliant work management systems to support the design process.
  • Upgrading the Responder Outage Management System has been enhanced to improve efficiency and usability. This release provides scripts that preserve the user’s existing configuration files and append changes that support new functionality.
  • ArcFM Viewer for ArcGIS Engine includes three new features:
    • An enhancement to the Show Address tool to accept a GPS feed and dynamically display addresses as they are encountered by the GPS.
    • An Identify tool that allows users to click a portion of the map and display information about features at that location.
    • An enhancement to the Engine Administrator to provide Enterprise users access to specific versions.

“With this service pack, we have not only concentrated on quality, but also on providing feature functionality so users can leverage the enhancements sooner rather than later,” says Michael Daniels, Vice President of Product Development. “We are excited to include the ArcFM Geodatabase Replication tool so our user community can take even more advantage of the ArcFM mobile solution.”
