Geographic Information Systems

 

GIS creates powerful tools that help provide more efficiency to our crews, designers and engineers, and more convenience for customers.

  • Meter reading routes have been designed for better efficiency.
  • Our real-time outage map combines Google technology with multiple PNM systems.
  • Before and after examples of proposed equipment projects are tools for designers and information for customers.                
  • Additional bird protection equipment is added on power poles based on GIS combining information from multiple sources.
  • Maps are combined with data in areas that have cultural significance so that we don't disturb those cultural resources.
  • Electricity substations are designed much more quickly and cost effectively.
