Works Bureau Commissions 3D Pipeline System to Enhance Construction Safety

PilotGaea, a professional development technology company, and Tainan City Bureau of Engineering jointly developed the "3D Pipeline System" to provide each pipeline for use, thereby improving the preservation of pipeline data and the process of excavation, and improving the consistency of permeable data and the safety of each process. The three-day training course will attract a wide range of industry professionals and have a great impact on the industry.

The Tainan City Bureau of Engineering and PilotGaea have jointly established the "3D Pipeline System", combining line data, geographic data, building models, monitoring equipment, and a 3D geographic information system, allowing the distribution of buildings and lines to be monitored and analyzed on a map. The PilotGaea training program is designed to help industry professionals improve their knowledge of the GIS system and how to use the analysis tools in the system to accelerate time and quality of work.

On March 13-14, the Industrial Development Bureau (IDF) held the "3-D Pipeline System Education Training" at Tainan City Hall and invited Mr. Wang, the manager of PilotGaea, to give the course. The course attracted many people from the industry to attend, including technicians or managers from cable TV, telecommunication companies, water companies, natural gas companies, and other companies with road excavation needs. Due to the overwhelming enrollment, the number of participants reached the capacity of the classroom. In order to ensure the quality of the class, we have increased the number of sessions to 3/12, so that more industry professionals can attend the class.

The "3D Pipeline System Education Training" was held in the multimedia classroom of Tainan City Government, attracting many participants from the industry.

The project excavation often differs greatly from the online data, and if the data of each pipeline unit is not integrated, it is easy for workers on site to cause mis-excavation during construction, and if the pipeline rupture causes gas leakage, it may cause danger." said Manager Wang. The course not only demonstrated how to view the pipeline distribution and detailed information, but also allowed the students to view the 3D model of each construction site. The students praised the system, which helps to integrate the data of each pipeline unit, and checked the pipeline and construction situation in their work area and near their homes.

Tainan City has a long history, and the underground pipeline system is complicated and unintegrated. The Works Bureau hopes to correct and update the underground pipeline data, so the system integrates information and space through the GIS, hoping to enhance urban planning and development, as well as to improve construction safety. The three-day training course brought a lot of new knowledge of the system to the industry.
