PowerGEM’s upcoming TARA Studio 2602.1 webinar is the last live walkthrough of the new GIS tools before the free trial closes on May 4 and GIS features require a license.
For anyone who spent the trial running GIS against real planning workflows, this is where 2602.1 earns its license. Expect a live demo of the Highlight tool for flagging lines by CSV, savable sticky notes, customizable bus and line labels, and a rebuilt layer system that pulls OpenStreetMap and HIFLD data through one loader. Rendering is faster, click targets are bigger, and one-line diagrams jump straight to the GIS map.
Key Takeaways
- Trial ends May 4. GIS features stop working after that date without a purchased license.
- New tools to showcase: Highlight, savable sticky notes, customizable labels, and a rebuilt layer system with OpenStreetMap and HIFLD data.
- Day-to-day usability improved with draggable bus labels, larger click targets, and a one-click jump from one-line diagrams to the GIS map.
Who should attend: transmission planners, reliability engineers, and interconnection teams running TARA Studio or evaluating the 2602.1 GIS trial.
