  1. Local Government Management of GIS Datafor a Water Utility Marc Rhan

  2. Water – How is it maintained? • Clean drinking water • Water infrastructure is vitally important to everyone • How is the data managed?

  3. PROBLEMS • GIS database for water line and components • Costs to implement and maintain • Standardized structure • Manage utility assets • Public notification • Homeland Security

  4. Objectives • Assisting the Stakeholders with a final product • Creating a standardized method of data creation and transfer • Create a financial vehicle to facilitate updates as they occur with new development

  5. ESRI has developed a prototype water database format

  6. ESRI model - Pump Attributes

  7. ESRI model – Fittings

  8. Process / manage data • ESRI has developed a prototype water database format • Modify existing database • Migrate existing data • Update data • Authenticate data • Publish data

  9. Standardization • Ordinances • CADD standards • Provide revenue stream / methodology to obtain data as it changes • Implement methodology to merge CADD data • Authenticate all data updates

  10. With CADD – sorting through all the layers is difficult!No storage of intelligence for the data itself

  11. As Built drawings - Engineering precision, GIS problems

  12. Conclusions • Client desire to develop database • Funding sources • Procedures to gather field changes and implement changes to database • Standard methods • Authenticate changes • Make data / training available to client for use in planning and maintenance
