Technical Webinar

TARA Studio 2602.1 GIS

April 29, 2026

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.
