Import Segmented Pipes

If your GIS has pipes that are divided into segments (between two manholes) due to changes in material, diameter, gradient, etc., you will need to map both the pipe segment ID and a "parent" asset ID when importing your data.

The parent asset ID will represent the full pipe from manhole to manhole. Information on the pipe segments will be displayed on the Asset Details page for the parent asset.

It is important that the parent asset ID is the same for all of the pipe segments so that any CCTV inspections get correctly associated to the pipe in Info360 Asset.

To import segmented pipes:

1. In your GIS data, add a parent asset ID to all of the pipe segments. Use the same parent asset ID for all pipe segments between the same manholes. For example:

   usNodeId	dsNodeId	pipe segmentId	parent assetId	Length	Material
   N22-076	N22-076-Conn-1	6C276FCCF31B4A859FD79D486040ABC1	N22-076-N22-047	62.655	PVC
   N22-076-Conn-1	N22-074-Conn	BD03941A2EC3452989FB74FBACE3F7E0	N22-076-N22-047	63.753	PP
   N22-074-Conn	N22-074	09F13BDEC1364E2E96D77A63F51FB8E3	N22-076-N22-047	58.233	PVC

2. Each segment also needs an upstream and downstream node for the import. You may use a "dummy" connection node if no real asset exists, but make sure the manhole IDs are included in the right place.
3. When importing the pipe GIS layer (see Import Asset Data for instructions), map the parent asset ID to the target assetId field and map the pipe segment ID to the target segmentId field.
4. Once imported into Info360 Asset, you will have one pipe asset (with the parent asset ID and the overall dimensions), and on the Asset Details page you will also have the information for each segment.
   

When you add a CCTV inspection, this will be associated to the parent asset ID. Any additional data imported via Custom Tables will also be associated to the parent asset ID.
