WinCan Map

Concept of WinCan Map

WinCan Map is an additional module to WinCanVX and allows the user to import existing pipeline data provided by GIS managers (engineer offices, local water authorities etc.). The pipeline data usually are queried from a geographic information system (GIS) and sent to the TV operator as a file package in the SHAPE format.
The operator then imports the SHAPE files into WinCan Map where the pipeline network can be visualized on a background map. Next the objects to be inspected (i.e. sections and manholes) must be selected and transferred into WinCanVX.
After this data transfer the operator is able to select a section in WinCanVX and have it shown directly in WinCan Map and vice versa. Uninspected and inspected sections are highlighted in different colours so the operator always gets a direct information about the inspection progress.

Import SHAPE files and show layers

  • Components required for SHAPE file packages: SHP, DBF, SHX

  • Check the SHAPE file set for sections and the SHAPE file set for manholes

  • Import of SHP files into WinCan Map and visualization as graphical layers

  • The section and manhole layer must perfectly match to each other

  • Check the projection system for your region or country and apply it to all the layers

  • Save the group of layers you imported in WinCan Map as a Map project (*.ttkgproject)

  • Set Map project as startup project.

Navigate to specific object or location

  • Free navigation and zoom via mouse

  • Navigate/Zoom to selected layer

  • Navigate/Zoom to selected object

Show GIS data

  • Check the section data: section name, upstream manhole, downstream manhole etc.

  • Check the manhole data: manhole name, depth etc.

Note: the names used for upstream/downstream manholes in the section layer must corrspond to the manhole names used in the manhole layer.

Modify layer properties

  • Change the aspect of lines (sections) and dots (manholes) to improve object visualization

  • Display specific information to the objects (section name, pipe diameter, manhole name etc.)

  • Save layer properties to the current Map project

Assign GIS field to WinCan fields (field mapping)

  • Field mapping for section layer:

  • Field mapping for manhole layer:

Note: the names used for GIS fields do not always give clear hints on the field content.
