PipeVDoc 1.0 - Document pipeline system on map backgrounds

Higgins & Associates, Inc. product for documenting a pipeline installation by dragging pipeline objects-pumps, tanks, terminals, valves, etc.-from gallery over metafile, bitmap or jpg maps. Expand maps and convert to bitmap or jpg. Connect with colored pipes of different thicknesses. Use Mousekeys to draw accurately. Record pipe specs, models, dates, maintenance, calibrations, piggings, etc. in dialogs. Save in named files, restore and print.

Standard Windows, or enhanced metafiles that are output from graphic information systems, or plotter programs can be read by PipeVDoc and selectively expanded to full screen then saved to bitmap or jpg format. This greatly reduces size without much loss in resolution.

Gallery of pipeline objects includes pumps, tanks, terminals, nodes, valves, block valves, pigs, and pipes, each with bitmap symbols. Beside documenting existing installations, PipeVDoc can be used to create screen displays for output to PowerPoint or HTML presentations.

Higgins & Associates, Inc. will build custom galleries to client specifications to enable PipeVDoc to document installations of other than pipeline themes such as chemical or process systems, exploration reserves, water and waste-water facilities, etc.

The source code for PipeVDoc can be made available to customers who want to use it for the front end of a user-configurable simulation program. Contact Higgins & Associates, Inc. for a quotation.
