Overview

Public Outage

The Public Outage map solution allows a utility to inform customers about the electric system's status by region. This map includes different geographic regions to display summaries of customer in and out of service, as well as a percentage of customers out of service. Optionally, you can display the locations of outage events.

The outage information is created through a series of geoprocessing models. The results are then shared to an ArcGIS organization to provide the public with a scalable map that can handle heavy demands when there is a large outage.
