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.
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)
Transfer data into WinCanVX
