Metria becomes a supplier of Visual Property Data systems to Svenska kraftnät with a tool for contract management towards external property owners in construction projects and also in the subsequent maintenance work.
Svenska kraftnät is a state-owned company tasked with managing Sweden's transmission network for electric power, which includes power lines for 400 kV and 220 kV including power plants and foreign power connections. Sweden's transmission network is in great need of expansion and several construction projects to build new power lines through the country have begun or are planned. To facilitate and streamline this work, Svenska kraftnät has procured a system for visual property data - a tool for contract management with external property owners in construction projects and subsequent contract management for maintenance work in the power line corridors.
"Svenska Kraftnät needs a solution where a large amount of downloaded, processed and entered information is stored and can be linked to properties and landowners. Our digital service Metria Markkoll offers just that and can create land agreements, valuation protocols, information letters and maps quickly and efficiently. It will facilitate Svenska kraftnät's grid expansion of transmission networks in Sweden for all parties involved", says Jonas Åkerman, CEO of Metria.
Slow and manual processes become faster and more efficient with better quality
Metria Markkoll provides a digitized and automated process for handling land issues, which speeds up the process of building new power lines in Sweden and makes it easier to inform property owners at an early stage. Sections from maps are automatically created based on the encroachment for that particular landowner, and the legend is dynamic according to what is actually on the current section.
More information and transparency for property owners
For the individual property owner, Metria Markkoll means that information about Svenska kraftnät's planned construction projects and maintenance work that affects the local area and contract management becomes more efficient through digital procedures. Property owners get improved transparency and are given greater opportunity to submit comments through the landowner portal in the new service.
