Project: Shura Marina (Red Sea Global)
Discipline: Electrical Network (USEL)
Challenge
Once the MEP network is validated, it must support downstream flow analysis – e.g., upstream/downstream tracing, isolation planning, and dead-end detection – to enable real-world operational decision-making.
Solution
USEL_Trace_Netconfigured as a trace network inside the GDB.- Network attributes defined: Shape Length, Flow Direction.
- Roles assigned: cable junctions, equipment, mainline.
- Flow direction validated by running downstream traces across the electrical network.
- Errors (dead-ends, open switches, disconnected stubs) surfaced and corrected.
Outcome
- Operational trace network ready for production use.
- Confirmed connectivity and flow direction across all segments.
- Enables isolation planning, outage analysis, and facility management queries – directly from GIS.
