How to set up automations when editing data?

0 0 0 28 August 2025

The system allows you to introduce automations that are designed to speed up work and improve the quality of the managed data (Data Governance). The main tools used to configure automations are:

1. Simple Formulas
2. Advanced Formulas

Examples of use cases:

1. Automatically calculate the area and the distance to the GPZ (main power supply points) for cadastral parcels when a new parcel is added.

In the example shown in the video, a simple formula is used to calculate the area, while an advanced formula is used to calculate the straight-line distance to the nearest GPZ and to the nearest National Park.

Notes:

• The configuration of formulas is done by the Administrator in the Administration Panel
• The automations shown are only examples; any type of calculation is possible
• If the geometry of a parcel changes, the attributes will be recalculated automatically
• The data format displayed in the attribute is defined by the Administrator (for example, it is possible to show only the numeric value to make sorting or filtering easier)
• There is no upper limit on the number of automations that can be added. The only limits are the Administrator’s imagination and the needs of the users.

2. Automatically adding the turbine base, the swept area, and the protection zone after adding a point representing the turbine location.

The automation shown in the video presents adding a point where a new wind turbine is planned. After providing the basic parameters:

1. Turbine type
2. Turbine height
3. Base area of the turbine
4. Rotor diameter
5. Prevailing wind direction (soon to be calculated automatically after integration with the Global Wind Atlas)

after saving, the following automatically appears on the map:

1. the turbine base geometry (in this case a square with an area defined in the turbine attribute)
2. he swept area (in this case a circle with a diameter equal to the rotor diameter)
3. the impact zone (in this case an ellipse where the minor axis equals the rotor diameter, and the major axis equals three times the rotor diameter, with the major axis oriented according to the prevailing wind direction azimuth in degrees)
4. The intersection area of parcels with the swept area (intersection of parcels with the swept area. This generates a very useful list of parcels along with the percentage of land area covered by the swept area. Very useful in negotiations).
5. Additionally, in the turbine attribute, a bar chart appears showing the statuses of parcels intersecting with the swept area and the foundation. You can immediately see how close you are to securing the entire site.

Of course, everything is recalculated automatically whenever any of the parameters is edited.
