Below is a list of the data quality control checks, broken out by groups, provided with the Data Reviewer for Gas Utilities. These preconfigured checks are just a sample of the important checks that can be used for validating, maintaining, and ensuring the integrity of gas network data.
Group name | Description |
Invalid Geometry Checks | Identifies features with invalid geometries, such as empty shape columns. |
Domain Checks | This check validates feature attributes according to values specified for their coded value and range domains in the geodatabase. |
Duplicate Geometry Checks | This group identifies point or line gas features that are duplicated, or with exact same shapes on top of each other; includes pipe on pipe, service on service, valve on valve, fitting on fitting, valve on fitting. |
Invalid Subtype Checks | Finds features with subtype values that are not in the data model. |
Geometry on Geometry Checks | Detects pipe or service lines that overlap. |
Self-intersecting Pipe Checks | Identifies pipes that self-intersect or reconnect on themselves. |
Reducer Connections Checks | Identifies reducers that are not connected to exactly two pipe segments. |
Reducer with same Pipe Size Checks | Finds reducers connected to pipe segments of the same diameter. |
Device not Splitting Pipe Checks | Finds valves that are not splitting the pipe segment where they connect. |
Null Attribute Checks | SQL queries to find pipes and services with null attribute values for diameter and material. |
Disconnected Device Checks | Composite checks that report valves or fittings not connected to either a pipe or a service line. |
