Abstract: A method for managing an electric utility power grid including a utility power line route may include generating an infrastructure model including utility assets and image information; receiving power line imaging data collected on the route and including utility asset imaging data; receiving geospatial topological model information; and generating a navigable simulated virtual environment model including an integrated visualization of infrastructure model image information with geospatial topological model image information and power line imaging data. A trained classification algorithm categorizes the condition of utility assets on the route from virtual views.
