DIMP Module for IntegrityManager Software for Risk Modeling
Emerson’s (formerly GeoFields™) DIMP Module enhances IntegrityManager™ Software for Risk Modeling (formerly RiskFrame™ DIMP Modeler) by translating spatial feature classes that can be combined with other tabular data to evaluate risk. It quickly identifies high risk assets on your gas distribution pipeline system. Pipeline operators can extract and review data to develop repair and mitigation plans with shared results for mapping and online analysis. Users can create and run simple or complex repeatable risk models and evaluate individual pipeline components and generate risk scores for distribution network assets, such as pipe segments, valves, meters, regulators, and other related equipment.

Features

  • Stands on top of an operator’s enterprise database of defined tabular and spatial data sets yet works in combination with existing data to create the most robust risk dataset.
  • Support for most data models, such as UPDM, ArcGIS® Gas Distribution Data Model, or a proprietary Esri® based geodatabase.
  • Spatial processing tool translates spatial feature classes into tables that become part of the same data library utilized throughout the organization.
  • All new data is incorporated into the enterprise database for seamless integration into the existing risk model to eliminate managing multiple copies of the data or systems of record.
  • Calculate risk at the individual pipeline system asset level; built-in data processing translates spatial feature classes into feature tables to be combined with other tabular data to evaluate pipeline risk.
  • Model results are automatically updated to a project archive, with archived reports stored at the enterprise level for easy retrieval and review.
  • The net effect of any proposed change(s) in source data state can be modeled for any factor or formula within a risk model without editing the model or committing any actual changes.
  • By running multiple scenarios, the software quantifies changes to threat or risk levels, allowing better risk and expense mitigation by providing objective justification for the optimal remediation activity.
  • The What-If Scenario Report displays both the original and potential model result records side-by-side, enabling users to directly measure the sensitivity of the risk model to integrity management practices.
  • A one-to-one relationship is maintained between risk calculations for individual assets and the distribution system hierarchy, which allows users to understand how each asset contributes to overall system risk.
  • Any factor formula within the risk model can be displayed, identified, sorted, symbolized, labeled and exported, allowing an engineer to gain valuable knowledge of the spatial risk results without being a GIS expert.
  • Multiple reporting options allow users to extract and review data to develop risk and mitigation plans, with results shared for mapping and online analysis.
