New Energy GIS Data Update to Industry's Largest Database

Hart Energy's new Mapping & Data Services group, formerly known as Rextag Strategies Inc., has announced the second 2011 quarterly update for its Geographic Information System (GIS) data subscribers. This release represents the single most significant update yet to the group's GIS data, adding 36,000 miles of pipelines to its Energy GIS database. That brings total inventory to 887,613 digitized miles of North American pipelines, making this GIS resource the industry's largest pipeline database by a significant margin (~100,000 miles). This release improves spatial accuracy and pipeline alignment throughout the United States, with particular focus in the Marcellus Shale region. More name-standardization and new data layers have been added as well.
