Software People Data Procedures Hardware from ESRI
FACTORS TO CONSIDER • Cost • Design • Information • Support
GIS NUTS & BOLTS $$$$$$$$$$$$ What is the expected “Return on Investment (ROI)?” • Software Data/Information • Manpower/Labor • Hardware
DATA/INFORMATION • Source • Accuracy • Cost
THE PEOPLE • Who will be in charge? • Who will use it? • Who will update it? • Who will collect, input, or access the data?
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS • Infrastructure • Hardware • Software • Maintenance • Personnel • Upgrades • Where will the system reside?
SYSTEM DESIGN • Who will use it? • How will it be used? • What is the purpose? • Custom or Out-of-the-box system (or hybrid) • Future expectations (expandability)
Strongsville The City of Strongsville decided to develop a sewer and water GIS system. This system will then be expanded and shared with all city departments. Chagrin Valley Engineering, Ltd (CVE) was awarded the contract to design, build, and install, the GIS system.
DATA/INFORMATION • Where will we get the information for the sewer & water systems? • Plan sheets that are kept in a digital image library. • The library was created using a program named Laserfiche. • Good system for retrieving and viewing the plan sheets. • Lacks an indexing system for a “back-end” connection to GIS.
THE INVENTORY • Created a CDI or document inventory number • The laserfiche library was sorted and categorized by: • Title, Plan/Profile, Details, Notes/Specs or Misc.
A TWO STEP PROCESS GEO-REFERENCING A plan sheet TIF is selected and cropped to an “Area of Interest”. The cropped image is imported into ArcGIS & Geo-referenced to the parcel layer.
A TWO STEP PROCESS THE INFORMATION IS DIGITIZED
COMMON MISTAKES • Typos In Numerical Data • Different Abbreviations • Misspellings
