This dataset shows electric utility service area boundaries for the State of Minnesota. The original source data were lines hand-drawn on county highway maps. The maps were scanned and georeferenced to serve as a background for on-screen digitizing. The utilities were then given an opportunity to review and correct the service areas. Changes filed with the Public Utilities Commission (eDockets) were also reviewed to update the areas.

This data is a graphic representation of natural gas utility service territories. The file has not been certified by a Professional Surveyor. This data is not suitable for legal purposes. The purpose of this data is to provide a generalized statewide view of electric service territories. The data does not include individual or commercial releases. A release is an agreement between adjoining utilities that release customers from one utility to be served by the adjoining utility. A customer release does not change the territory boundary. The file has been compiled from numerous sources and as such contains errors. The data only contains the electric utility service territories and the name of the utility.The data was derived from ESRI zipcode boundary and utility companies.

*** 7/19/22: This dataset and its accompanying map are no longer available since they are inaccurate and outdated. The Minnesota Department of Commerce is no longer maintaining or fielding requests related to this data as it has been unable to consistently obtain accurate, up-to-date information on high voltage transmission lines and substation locations from transmission owners in the state.***

Information describing the previously available dataset is provided in the rest of this metadata record for reference.
----------------------------------

The electric transmission network information consisted of transmission lines, with associated substations, designed to handle 60 Kilovolts or greater.

The Minnesota Electric Transmission Mapping Project developed two geographic information system datasets: transmission lines and substations. This metadata record describes both datasets.

In 2002, each electric utility company was mailed a request for their facility information which could be provided in either digital or paper form. The responses varied significantly in quality and quantity. In addition, the companies expressed concerns about providing the information because of security concerns. Data users were strongly encouraged to read the data quality section of this documentation.

Datasets were published in 2003, 2007, 2014, 2016, and 2021. In 2016 a few changes were made to improve the positional accuracy of lines and substations. The dataset was last updated in July 2021.

The Minnesota Electric Transmission Mapping Project was a collaborative effort between the Minnesota Department of Commerce and the Minnesota Geospatial Information Office.

Alaska Energy Authority Power Cost Equalization (PCE) program by community. The power cost equalization program supports rural Alaskans who live in areas where energy costs are significantly higher than urban areas in meeting the cost of electricity."AEA determines eligibility of community facilities and residential customers and authorizes payment to the electric utility. Commercial customers are not eligible to receive PCE credit. Participating utilities are required to reduce each eligible customer’s bill by the amount that the State pays for PCE. RCA determines if a utility is eligible to participate in the program and calculates the amount of PCE per kWh payable to the utility.

Utility GIS Field Data Collection Market Outlook

According to our latest research, the Utility GIS Field Data Collection market size reached USD 1.72 billion in 2024 globally, driven by rapid digital transformation across utility sectors and increasing demand for real-time data insights. The market is expected to expand at a robust CAGR of 13.1% from 2025 to 2033, reaching a forecasted value of USD 5.06 billion by 2033. This impressive growth trajectory is underpinned by the rising need for efficient asset management, regulatory compliance, and the integration of advanced geospatial technologies into utility operations, as per our comprehensive analysis.

The primary growth factor for the Utility GIS Field Data Collection market is the accelerating adoption of smart grid technologies and digital infrastructure upgrades by utility providers worldwide. Utilities are increasingly leveraging Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to streamline field operations, improve asset visibility, and enhance decision-making processes. The proliferation of IoT devices and mobile data collection platforms has further amplified the demand for GIS-based field data solutions, enabling utilities to capture, process, and analyze spatial data with unprecedented accuracy and speed. This shift is particularly pronounced in regions with aging infrastructure, where the need for modernization and operational efficiency is paramount. Additionally, regulatory mandates for accurate asset documentation and environmental compliance are compelling utilities to invest in advanced GIS field data collection tools.

Another significant growth catalyst is the surge in investments toward renewable energy integration and the modernization of water, gas, and electric utility networks. As utilities transition towards sustainable energy sources and smart distribution systems, the complexity of managing diverse assets and networks has increased substantially. GIS field data collection solutions provide utilities with the ability to map, monitor, and maintain these assets in real-time, reducing downtime and operational costs. The growing emphasis on predictive maintenance, driven by AI and machine learning algorithms, is also fueling the adoption of GIS-enabled field data collection for proactive infrastructure management. Furthermore, the ongoing urbanization and expansion of utility networks in emerging economies are creating new opportunities for market players.

The evolution of cloud computing and mobile technologies is reshaping how utilities approach field data collection. Cloud-based GIS platforms offer scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness, making them attractive for both large and small utility providers. The integration of advanced analytics, real-time data synchronization, and remote collaboration features is enhancing the value proposition of GIS field data solutions. Moreover, the increasing focus on customer-centric services, such as outage management and service restoration, is driving utilities to adopt GIS-based field data collection for improved responsiveness and service quality. As digital transformation accelerates across the sector, the market is witnessing a surge in partnerships and collaborations between technology vendors and utility companies, further propelling growth.

Regionally, North America leads the Utility GIS Field Data Collection market owing to substantial investments in smart grid projects, stringent regulatory frameworks, and the presence of major technology providers. Europe follows closely, driven by ambitious sustainability targets and modernization initiatives in the utility sector. The Asia Pacific region is emerging as a high-growth market, supported by rapid urbanization, infrastructure expansion, and increasing adoption of digital technologies by utilities in countries such as China, India, and Japan. Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are also witnessing steady growth, albeit from a smaller base, as utilities in these regions embark on digital transformation journeys to enhance operational efficiency and service delivery.
