When migrating from InfoAsset Planner to Info360 Asset, there are a couple of ways to move your project data.
00:11
One of these options is to export shapefiles from InfoAsset Planner, and then import them into Info360 Asset.
00:19
InfoAsset Planner GIS data for sewer and water assets is available in the Info Asset Planner file geodatabase,
00:26
within the Sewer_Network or Water_Network feature layers.
00:30
You can see these networks in the Catalog view, under the project database.
00:36
Expand Sewer_Network to see the SS Gravity Main and SS Manhole layers.
00:41
These same layers can be found in the Table of Contents.
00:45
The easiest way to export the gravity main and manhole shapefiles is through the Table Of Contents.
00:51
Expand the Sewer_Network layer.
00:54
Right-click Gravity Main and select Data > Export Data.
01:01
In the Export Data dialog, click the folder icon to select a location, then add a name for your shapefile, such as "GravityMains".
01:10
Click Save, and then OK.
01:13
If you see a popup about adding the exported data to the map as a layer, click No.
01:20
Repeat these steps to export the manhole shapefile, naming the file "Manholes".
01:26
You are now ready to import these shapefiles into Info360 Asset.
01:31
To start the import process, with an Info360 Asset project open, click Data.
01:39
From the Assets tab, click New Import.
01:42
The first import will be the pipe shapefile.
01:45
Set the System Type to Sanitary Sewer, the Asset Type to Pipe, and the Data Source to Shapefile.
01:56
To import a shapefile, you need a single .zip file containing all the .shp, .shx, .dbf, and .prj files.
02:07
Click in the Drag and drop file here box to open your file browser.
02:11
Navigate to where you exported the shapefiles from InfoAsset Planner.
02:16
Select all of the GravityMains files, then right-click and select Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder.
02:24
Select the newly created .zip file, then click Open.
02:28
You can now map fields from your Source to the Target fields.
02:32
Note that fields with an asterisk are mandatory to map.
02:37
Click each of the following Target fields, use the Configure dialog drop-down to map it to the accompanying Source Field, then click OK.
02:46
In some cases, you also need to set a Source Unit:
02:50
Map assetId to FACILITYID
02:54
Map DsNodeId to TOMH
02:58
Map Length to PipeLength
03:01
Map usNodeId to FROMMH
03:05
Map material to MATERIAL
03:08
Map yearLaid to INSTALLDAT and set the Source Unit to date [YYMMDD]
03:15
Set other non-mandatory fields, as needed, such as installation date, pipe diameter, upstream invert, and pipe material.
03:25
Click Import.
03:27
Add a Configuration name, such as “pipesimport”, and then click OK.
03:33
After this import process is complete, repeat the same steps for manholes.
03:38
Click New Import, set the Asset Type to Manhole, and once again, set the Data Source to Shapefile.
03:48
Click the Drag and drop file here box, and in the file browser, create a .zip comprising all of the manhole shapefiles.
03:57
Select the .zip file, then click Open.
04:01
As with the pipes shapefile, there are certain fields to match for the manholes.
04:06
Map the following:
04:08
Map assetId to FACILITYID
04:12
Map yearLaid to INSTALLDAT and set the Source Unit to date [YYMMDD]
04:21
Map groundLevel to RIMELEV and set the Source Unit to foot
04:27
Map material to WALLMAT
04:30
Map owner to OWNEDBY
04:34
Map locationDetails to LOCDESC
04:39
Map systemType to WATERTYPE
04:43
After matching all fields, click Import.
04:47
Add a name, such as "manholesimport", then click OK.
04:52
Once the import is completed, since you have no more shapefiles to import, click I’m Done.
04:59
You can see your imported shapefiles in the Network map.
05:02
Open the Layers panel, then expand Sanitary Sewer to find your Manholes and Pipes.
05:09
Zoom in to the map to see the manholes and pipes more clearly.
