  1. GIS Inventory powered by Ramona An Overview for the State of Connecticut January 23, 2008

  2. Today’s Agenda • Limited Introductions • Overview of the GIS Inventory • Live Review of the User Interface • Live Review of the Administrator Panel • Management Uses in North Carolina

  3. Purpose of the GIS Inventory • Track the status of GIS in state and local government • Aid the planning and building of Spatial Data Infrastructures • Work in concert with Geospatial One-Stop and other Federal programs for broader data discovery • Have a single inventory tool • Unique state identity (promote buy-in) • Reduce the need for the multiple ad-hoc inventories conducted by federal and state agencies

  4. Primary Components of the GIS Inventory • Inventory of • Users • Organizations • Systems • Policies • Geography • 478 Data Layers • Status Maps and Query Capability • Directory of Users • Reports • User Support • Newsletter Tool • Administrative Tools • Metadata Generation Tool • Metadata Repositories (Web Folder and CSW) • Supports the Annual NSGIC State Summaries

  5. Important Features • Open source • Simple & intuitive interface • Inexpensive to modify and maintain • $6,000 per year for hardware/software/ISP • Original User Needs and System Build - $60k (NOAA funded through BAA) • Total Investment is < $150k to date from (NOAA, FEMA, FGDC, DHS)

  6. Underlying Architecture • PHP - programming • MapServer - mapping interface • MySQL – database • Commercial Hardware (Liquid Web) • Dedicated High Speed Server • RAID Level 1 Storage • On-Site and Off-Site Backup • 2-hour repair/replacement guarantee

  7. Interoperability NDEP – National Digital Elevation Program Committee NDOP – National Digital Orthophoto Programs Committee MIP – FEMA’s Mapping Information Platform GOS – Geospatial One Stop Portal CSW – Catalog Services - OGC Catalog Service 2.0.1 GIS Inventory is not dependent on any other system.

  8. User Interface

  9. Status Maps • Visualize status of particular data layers • Map can be customized • Information reports on all data layers

  10. User completes information Categories User Organization Systems Policies Geography 10 to 25 minutes for complete documentation User Profile

  11. 478 Layers – Only document what you produce 6 standard questions 6 layers have additional questions 30 seconds to 2 minutes per layer Publish your information from this screen Data Documentation

  12. Search tool to find any user registered in your state Listings are graphics to prevent data mining on the site Links to E-mail and Organization Web Address Directory

  13. Getting Started Guide and User Support Tool

  14. Administrator Panel

  15. List all users Various Search Functions Add Users Reassign Profile to a New User Modify User Accounts Set Administrative Privileges Administrator Tools User Tab

  16. Review any metadata record in the system to check out external error reports Metadata Tab

  17. Run reports based on your own search criteria Reports

  18. Sample Report

  19. Detail on Orthoimagery

  20. Ability to add questions that are important to the state. Formats Single answer multiple choice Multiple answer multiple choice Free text answer Unique State Questions

  21. Can create and send newsletters to all users in the state or to a select group (i.e. just the administrators) HTML or Plain Text options Newsletter Function

  22. Users request support on problems or report bugs in system Administrators get E-mail alerts from the Support Forum and respond to requests Maintains a complete record of the dialogue Can close and re-open tickets as needed Support Forum (Super Users Only)

  23. Metadata Requirements • GIS Inventory does not ingest metadata • too many variables in free text fields • GIS Inventory has a structured series of questions in several functional areas • GIS Inventory creates “starter” metadata that is compliant with the FGDC CSDGM standard

  24. Customers • State and local governments and their partners from many sectors, including private business • Select Federal Agencies (FEMA, DHS, NDOP, NDEP) • FGDC Cadastral Committee (new) • GOS Portal • General Public

  25. How or why are they using the system? • Data Discovery • Strategic and Business Plan Development • Building Spatial Data Infrastructures • Research on Status and Trends

  26. StatisticsSeptember 2007 (Updates for December 2007) • 1,824 Registered Users (2,993) • 572 have documented data layers (648) • 5,861 metadata records (avg. 10 each) • 3,237 Framework (3,512) • 2,624 Other layers (2,874) • 1,335 harvested by GOS ? • 1,154 validated by GOS ?
