TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE DATABASE
Developed by GDM, the Transportation Infrastructure Database provides single source access to the most comprehensive transportation information for Western Canada, the Northern Territories, and Eastern Canada. For E&P and Service companies supporting the energy industry, (drilling, pipeline, environmental companies, etc.) understanding the transportation infrastructure is critical to ensuring the fastest, most responsible and cost effective movement of equipment, people and resources in the field.  This information can literally save hundreds of thousands of dollars in transportation costs per year.

TID provides real-world context for decision-makers addressing:

  • Surface Access and Planning
  • Vehicle Location and Routing
  • Emergency Response Planning
  • Well and Facility Location
  • Pipeline Construction
  • Well Site Remediation
  • Network Analysis
  • Project Planning & Logistics
  • Asset Monitoring and Tracking
  • Environmental Assessment
  • Cartography

About the Information

Drawing on our vast GIS and data management expertise, GDM has compiled and integrated this highly accurate and functional roads database from a number of public and proprietary sources. New roads, changes and enhancements are performed daily. Additionally, specialized topology and connectivity processes have been implemented within a robust database model that delivers a fully GIS compliant dataset.

TID delivers superior quality and data completeness for public roadways and private lease and resource roads.  Information and features include:

  • Wellsite, facility and resource lease roads
  • Road ownership
  • Road restrictions
  • Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary roads and trails
  • Topologically Correct – Network Ready Dataset
  • Connectivity to well locations and production facilities
  • Detailed Route Classification (17 levels: Primary, Secondary, Tertiary…)
  • Detailed and Accurate Route Plotting Codes (road classes and application)
  • Public/Private Designation
  • Route Names – proper roadway names and LSD/SEC lease road identification
  • Data Confidence Rating – assessment of planimetric accuracy

The GDM team, with its many years of combined data experience, has developed a database that not only captures valuable attribute data from many diverse sources but has also implemented a strict yet robust database model making the data easy to use and GIS ready.  The Transportation Infrastructure Database has been compiled from many sources:

  • IHS Historical Roads Database
  • International Petrodata File Roads Database (IPL)
  • Ensight Information Services Roads Database
  • Public sources from the Federal, Provincial and Municipal Governments
  • Private sources from contributing Energy Producers and Service Companies

IHS users familiar with the GDM monthly Pipeline and Facility Database updates will be pleased to learn that the Transportation Infrastructure Database will be updated on a similar schedule.  GDM also seeks to work with companies that use our data products.  In an effort to continue to provide customers with the most accurate and highest quality dataset, GDM welcomes client interaction and companies are encouraged to submit unique additions, edits, changes in ownership, or omissions directly to the dataset.

Ask your IHS representative to find out how your company can add your proprietary resource roads.

The Transportation Infrastructure Database is available in an IHS application best suited for your needs including:

  • Enerdeq™ Desktop, the next generation AccuMap, designed to improve business results with access to integrated public and proprietary oil and gas data.
  • AccuMap® is the most widely used and highly trusted oil and gas mapping software, powered by the best E&P data available to the industry.
  • EGIS™ custom reports allow you to select exactly which pieces of information you want to extract. Well and Pipeline Custom reports are tabular, sortable, contain only the fields you specify, and can be transferred to other EGIS installations.
  • PetroSurveys provides map views, reports, and queries for a variety of oil and gas datasets from one Internet accessible map application. In mere clicks, from office or field, you can have information on wells, pipelines, facilities, transportation, public lands survey plans, and mineral lease ownership information on your desktop.
  • IHS Data Center provides subscribers direct access to the most comprehensive and current data available publicly or through a dedicated line from their internal networks.
  • GIS-Ready Datasets are available in several standard GIS-ready formats and projections. These datasets plug into your off-the-shelf GIS or CAD system with no database linkages or extra work required.
