Study on Visualization of Large Consumers' Operational Risk Information in Power Supply Company

Abstract:

Large consumers, one of the most important groups which power supply company serves, are nowadays producing increasingly prominent operational risks. The urgent problem that power supply companies face, is to scientifically, accurately and immediately control the risks and its impacts. This paper mainly forces on the visualization of large consumers’ operation risk information in the power supply company. First, the characteristics of operational risk information are analyzed from different dimension features, and various visual elements which are applicable to different risk factors are summarized. On the basis of the first step, combined with the diversified characteristics of large consumers’ risk information, two modified risk visual elements, Heatmap and Treemap, are designed. Finally, the visualization schemes of large consumers’ operational risk information are proposed by instance. Results show that administrators can timely discover and recognize large consumers’ operational risks from these schemes, which effectively improved risk visualization and early warning capabilities.
