Linkage between m file and gis files #1

Open Vivienne16 opened 2 years ago

Vivienne16 commented 2 years ago

Hi,

Thank you very much for creating this network model! I wonder if you can provide the data to link the m file to the gis file. Maybe I missed something, but for now, it seems that we can plot the buses on the map but we don't know which bus it is in the m file. Similarly, we can see the where the transmission lines are but don't know the capacity of them. It would be great to have a "mapping" between the bus index of the m file and the node index of the gis files. Thank you very much!

Hello,

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. You are correct, the files that link the GIS and MATPOWER formats were missing.

As an update, we are uploading CSV files that will allow users to map the indices between the GIS and MATPOWER formats of the CATS grid. They are located in the Additional Data Files directory..

I'm also updating the README.md file to better explain this mapping.

At the moment, the ID mappings in bus_data.csv and gen_data.csv files should be correct. However, we have found an issue in the mapping for branch_data.csv and are working to fix this. I will send an update once this has been resolved.
