4 likes1,878 views
The document discusses the Smart Infrastructure Dashboard (SID), detailing contributions from partners like Rick Sawers and Nick Greiner, alongside a presentation by Dr. Rohan Wickramasuriya. It emphasizes the need for integrated planning and business intelligence in managing complex datasets from various infrastructure service providers in the Illawarra region. The SID has been demonstrated as an effective tool for regional infrastructure governance, suggesting that its approach can be replicated in other areas.
SMART International Symposium for Next Generation Infrastructure: SMART Infrastructure Dashboard
- 1. ENDORSING PARTNERS SMART Infrastructure Dashboard The following are confirmed contributors to the business and policy dialogue in Sydney: • Rick Sawers (National Australia Bank) • Nick Greiner (Chairman (Infrastructure NSW) Monday, 30th September 2013: Business & policy Dialogue Tuesday 1 October to Thursday, Dialogue 3rd October: Academic and Policy Presented by: Dr Rohan Wickramasuriya, SMART Infrastructure Facility, University of Wollongong www.isngi.org www.isngi.org
- 3. Outline • Background & Problem • Potential solution – pieces of the jigsaw • SID – assembled jigsaw Study area, stakeholders and data Technical architecture and workflows SID in action • Conclusion and future works
- 4. • Many utility service providers • Where’s the problem? holistic view? integrated planning? how can I take actions? • Difficult challenge multiple stakeholders dispersed datasets diverse formats (data) data complexity
- 5. • Business Intelligence (BI) processes people Data Access Analyse Knowledge technology Why BI? ability to handle diverse & complex data optimized data storage for fast query performance slice & dice, drill down, roll up captivating, easy-to-understand reports online access
- 6. • Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Why GIS? infrastructure data largely spatial map is a better visual
- 7. Public Infrastructure Domain Regional focus SQL driven No complex modelling
- 8. • The Illawarra region • 5 Councils • Infrastructure service provision diverse providers private & public • Electricity distribution 1 company Endeavour Energy • Water & Sewage networks 3 operators Sydney Water • Solid Waste 4 operators REMONDIS
- 9. Provider Data type Temporal Resolution Spatial Resolution Endeavour Elec. Consumption Geom. network Monthly N/A SA1 Sydney Water Water consumption Water quality Water demand Discharge volumes Power consumption Geom. network – water Geom. network – sewage Quarterly Monthly Daily Daily Monthly N/A N/A Postcode Reservoirs (point) Reservoir zone REMONDIS Waste volume & weight Collection Routes Daily Collection Route ABS Demographic Yearly SA1 BOM Rainfall, Temperature Daily Station

Data Sets Data Staging & Warehousing Electricity Water ETL Staging Database Data Warehouse Geo-BI Analytics Analytical Reports Waste Demographic Data Metadata Repository Weather Data • Software Pentaho Data Integration PostgreSQL/PostGIS Yellowfin Interactive Dashboards End Users Web Interface
- 11. • What is star schema? • Why star schema? simple queries fast query performance easy to understand
- 12. Schema 1 Common dimensions Schema 2 (network)
- 13. • Spatial hierarchy SA4 - SA1 • Temporal hierarchy year - season/quarter - month - week - day
- 19. Conclusion • Right people, data, fusion of BI & GIS (processes & technologies) can provide the integrated vision required for regional infrastructure governance • SMART Infrastructure Dashboard – a proven demonstrator that can be replicated elsewhere • Happy to transfer knowledge & technology • Future work Automating spatial data handling – FME & Geotools/ArcGIS for Server Network interdependency
