GIS Data Availability Survey • Highlights (preliminary observations) • Large number of data producers • Handful of 1st generation delivery orders in progress • All agree to supply data for flood mapping • Actual data formats, projection, & datum will vary • All data not necessarily off-the shelf but are derivable • Previous two observations will be challenges for efficient base mapping collection process
GIS Data Availability Survey • Highlights (observed comments/issues) • Use local tiling schemes (example: 1”=400’ scale, 10k x 10k tile for base map) • Use English units of measurement • Give ample time to prepare data for CGIA
GIS Data Availability Survey • Survey Background • Primarily based on 1997 state-wide county survey conducted by SGUC/NCDOT and the NSGIC/SMAC NSDI Framework Data Survey • Involves input from the Statewide Mapping Advisory Committee (SMAC) • Mailed to counties and municipalities in the 6 eastern river basins
GIS Data Availability Survey • Survey process . . • Use and update existing Framework Data contacts database (115 reps statewide) • Call contacts once scoping meeting is scheduled • Fax or email survey instrument • Schedule appointment with contact • Determine if other local contacts exist
GIS Data Availability Survey • Survey Specifics • Comprehensive – asks detailed questions about hardware, software, data distribution, and related policy • Contains specific questions for base map data layers (county boundaries, orthophotography, hydrography, etc.) • Survey responses are input into a computer program tool…
NC Floodplain Mapping Program Computer program designed to store survey information
Computer Program Background • Developed by Dewberry & Davis LLC • Created as a way to log survey responses in a computer database • Stores data in Microsoft Access • Format and questions are identical to mailed survey
Survey Status - Municipalities Burlington Carrboro Chapel Hill Elizabethtown Garner Graham Jacksonville Knightdale Morrisville North Topsail Beach Princeville Rocky Mount Rolesville Tarboro Wake Forest Zebulon Camp Lejeune
Next Steps • Complete surveys for 6 basins – Jan 31 • Enter all results into database – Jan 31 • Showcase results • Web Map/Data Site, Reports, Other? • Survey 11 remaining basins – June 30
