Abstract

This article contends that planning for power systems is essentially a projection of how the system should grow over a specific period of time, given certain assumptions and judgments about the future load and the size of investment in generating capacity additions, transmission facilities expansion and reinforcements. Transmission line routing is one of the most important strategic decision-making problems for both private and public sectors. The major objective of a utility is to supply demand for power with a good quality of service, through proper planning of the system. This has led to development of methods which can be used to aid the decision-making process for selecting the best alternative. Geographical Information System (GIS)-based electricity transmission system planning strategies are proposed in this article to determine an optimum routing of feeders. Existing and proposed layouts have been drawn using a GIS-based software, Quantum Geographic Information System (Q-GIS). The developed system is based on the routing of transmission lines from Barh thermal power plant situated in Bihar, India.

基于开源软件Q-GIS的传输线路由

本文认为，电力系统的规划本质上是对系统在特定时期内应如何增长的预测，给出对未来负荷的某些假设和判断，以及在发电能力增加、输电设施扩建和加固方面的投资规模。输电线路路由是公私部门最重要的战略决策问题之一。公用事业公司的主要目标是通过适当的系统规划，以优质的服务满足电力需求。这导致了可用于帮助选择最佳备选方案的决策过程的方法的发展。本文提出了基于地理信息系统(GIS)的输电系统规划策略，以确定馈线的最佳路径。现有的和拟议的布局是使用基于gis的软件量子地理信息系统(Q-GIS)绘制的。开发的系统基于位于印度比哈尔邦的Barh热电厂的输电线路路由。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Open Source Software and Processes (IJOSSP) publishes high-quality peer-reviewed and original research articles on the large field of open source software and processes. This wide area entails many intriguing question and facets, including the special development process performed by a large number of geographically dispersed programmers, community issues like coordination and communication, motivations of the participants, and also economic and legal issues. Beyond this topic, open source software is an example of a highly distributed innovation process led by the users. Therefore, many aspects have relevance beyond the realm of software and its development. In this tradition, IJOSSP also publishes papers on these topics. IJOSSP is a multi-disciplinary outlet, and welcomes submissions from all relevant fields of research and applying a multitude of research approaches.
