Mapping Project Development Records & Revenue Public Works Information Services
Development Responsibilities Information Services • Computer Hardware • Computer Software System Networking • System Accounting
Development Responsibilities Public Works • Land Surveys (traditional & GPS) • Least Squares Adjustments • PLSS Publications and Maintenance • SGR Control Skeletons • Aerial Photography • Planimetric Features
Development Responsibilities Property Records & Revenue • Editing and Delivery of ½ Section Maps • Ultimap Software Master Level • Property Records Administration
Global Positioning System (GPS) • Used widely in the surveying and construction fields • A major time saver – no line of sight • Limitations include: tree cover, buildings, and data link • Weather does not impact
How it works • Measures distance by the time it takes a signal to get from satellite to the receiver • Use at least 4 satellites (can have as many as 15-20) to determine the users location
Least Square Adjustments • U or M Fortran (Tom Wagemaker) • City of Mpls. Fortran (Brad Henry) • GPS Fixed, Assumed Float, Observed Angles and Observed Distances • Adjusted Float, Std. Deviation, Adj. Angles, Adj. Distances and RoP
Least Squares Today • Mostly observed GPS vectors • Star*Net, C Progamming Language, MicroSurvey Software Inc.
UltiMap 1985 - 1996 • Acquired from Hennepin County • Enhanced from CARS program • Developed in Fortran 77 Prgm. Lng. • Apollo Hardware • Domain Editor • Token Ring • Aegis, BSD 4.3, Sys5 • CalcompPlotters and Digitizing tables
UltiMap 1985 - 1996 • Hierarchical Data Dictionary • Revision, Alternate, Master Data Storage • RCDMS • Batch Processing, $loc, $exec • SGR files con, tcon, dcon • PLC, DXF • Q*VIEW, Macros, Menus • Proprietary Database
Ultimap System GBU • Good - Double Precision • Good - Apollo/HP multitasking, OS • Bad - Fortran 77 buggy – Divide by 0 • Bad - SGR files only edit 32,768 rec. • Bad – Proprietary objects leader lines • Ugly - Data Dictionary and Master, Alternate and Revision DB levels.
ESRI ArcInfo/ArcStorm1996-2004 • Sun SparcStation 20 RISC Server • Sun Solaris OS • Client Server connection from Pent. PC • Exceed Hummingbird X-Windows • Proprietary DB • Checkin/Checkout – Coverages • Feature Locking
ArcInfoArcStorm GBU • Good – Rock Solid Computer System and OS - NIC • Bad - Difficult to initially Setup and load data • Ugly - X-Windows and X-Authority difficult to initially configure
ESRI ArcSDE Enterprise DB2004- Present • Intel Based Servers Multiprocessors • FlexLM license manager. • Node Locked - Single Use License • Concurrent – Floating Licenses • Uses relational RDBMS (DB2, Informix, Oracle, MS SQL)
ESRI ArcSDE Enterprise DB2004- Present • Versioned DB • Reconcile and Post • Topology • Dirty areas • Custom tools for Spatial Adjustments • Single lines for parcels • Working on Pilot for Parcel Fabric DM
ArcSDE - GBU • Good - Supports large amounts of data and multiuser editing • Bad – Complex especially database compressions, keeping DB schema in order and in sync with other replications • Ugly – Topology Dirty Areas
Definition of GIS • A Collection of People, Computer Hardware and Computer Software for Capturing, Managing, Analyzing and Displaying Geographic Information.
GIS (Short Definition) • DATA • SYSTEM • MAP
Ramsey County GIS Future • ESRI Parcel Data Model • Routing Street Centerlines • Statewide Street Centerline Model • NSAS (Urisa, NENA, DGDC) • Cloud (Web) Based Seamless Integrated Data
