How geodata is used in the energy sector
- plan electricity grid expansion and energy infrastructure
- analyze land, topography and conditions
- identify properties and landowners
- avoid areas with environmental and permit restrictions
- analyze climate risks such as flooding and erosion
- optimize the location of facilities
Challenges in the energy industry
- long and complex permitting processes
- multiple stakeholders and landowners
- lack of comprehensive and up-to-date data
- increased demands for climate adaptation
- need for rapid and well-founded decisions
How Metria helps
Metria combines geodata, property information and geographic analyses to create decision-making support in energy projects.
This makes it possible to:
-
analyze large geographical areas quickly
-
identify suitable locations
reduce risks in planning and investment -
streamline projects and permit processes
Metria combines geodata and property information to create decision-making support in energy projects – read more about how we work with property information.
Data can also be integrated directly into your systems and processes via API services.
Example: Electricity network planning in practice
A power company can use geodata to:
-
identify possible routes for power
-
linesanalyze ground conditions and topography
-
connect properties to the project
-
avoid areas with environmental restrictions
-
analyze risks linked to climate and geography
The result is a clear decision-making basis and a more efficient planning process.
How does geodata influence decisions?
Geodata has become a central part of energy infrastructure planning and development.
By working data-driven, organizations can:
-
reduce the risk of wrong investments
-
shorten project lead times
-
prioritize the right actions
-
plan more robust energy systems
Services tailored to your business
Organizations, authorities and companies in most industries make small and large decisions based on geodata every day. The information often comes in the form of, for example, map services and images from Metria.
