Information about how does Giswater handle MASTERPLAN capabilities

With Giswater it is possible to planify new network elements without destroing current network. The secret is to work with psectors. Here there is a brief description how it works:

1- First step is always to generate a planning sector (psector), where the changes made to the planned alternative will be saved.

2- Each planned element that we introduce will go to the psector that is set as a current psector (a default value) at the moment, so we need to be very aware of what value we have. If we make a new psector it will always become the default one. If you want to change it, go to psector manager, select a psector and click on ‘Current psector’.

3- The elements ON SERVICE that we want to unsubscribe from the alternative can be selected from the form of the psector in question, through the ‘Relations’ tab. Here we will also be able to consult the PLANNED elements of the psector, but we will only add those that are ON SERVICE.

**TOPOLOGY RULES:**

• Impossible to connect ‘planned’ arc to ‘operative’ node»
• «Planned arcs can only be attached to planned nodes on a psector»
• «Two planned nodes may NEVER exist on the location»
• «Two operative nodes may NEVER exist on the same location»
• «Two nodes (1 planned and 1 operative) may exist on the same location»
• «Obsolete arcs are topology free»
• «Obsolete nodes are topology free»
