  1. GIS Data Resources Ruppert Grauberger Chief, Mapping & Photogrammetry Division of Engineering

  2. GIS data • GIS data come in various formats, such as “shapefiles”, geodatabases (feature class), coverages, raster files • GIS vector files consist of the spatial entities (e.g., points, lines, polygons) AND the attributes of that entity (tabular) • Raster files are arrays of “pixels” that contain discrete values • GIS data files are not simple files, and a special data management module is used to copy/move/paste files

  3. Sources of GIS data • On-line • Cal-Atlas Geospatial Clearinghouse • http://www.atlas.ca.gov • not extensive • ArcGIS Online • ESRI and government agency services • directly import into ArcMap • http://www.arcgisonline.com • Geospatial One Stop • federal government clearinghouse • links and searches • http://www.geodata.gov • Division or Section data library • shared drives • i.e. DFM: \\gis1\data • Colleagues • DWR_GIS email list • (to subscribe, go to http://listhost2.water.ca.gov/mailman/listinfo/dwr_gis_workgroup) • DWR Enterprise Geospatial Data Library (coming soon ...) • Image Server “beta version” is currently up and running

  4. DWR Enterprise Image Server Particulars for connecting are: • 1. Start in ArcCatalog. • 2. Expand GIS Servers in the TOC. • 3. Double click Add ArcGIS Server. • 4. Select Use GIS Server • 5. Select Internet, enter http://parcgis1/arcgis/services , and login in with your DWR username and password. • 6. The are currently 8 services that should show up in the TOC under "arcgis on parcgis1 > Image Services" and can be added to an MXD.

  5. Image Server Template MXD Used as a beginning point for most of our GIS mapping projects

  6. Image Server Template MXD Scale dependent California Map

  7. Image Server Template MXD Scale dependent 100K USGS topo map

  8. Image Server Template MXD Scale dependent 24K USGS topo map

  9. Image Server Template MXD NAIP 2005 1-meter aerial is default background behind 24K topo map
