Channel Islands Regional Geographic Information Systems Collaborative A report on the March 2 meeting for Disaster Preparedness. Paul Van Zuyle City of Thousand Oaks
What CIRGIS is: • A regional group of GIS users who want to share data • Federal, State, local and private agencies and individuals who have signed a MOA • A Regional Council of the State GIS Council
What CIRGIS does • Create metadata for members with grant funding from the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) • Educate members about GIS data • Provide a face-to-face meeting for a diverse group of GIS professionals

Emergency response presentations: • John Kelly, San Luis Obispo County Planning Dept. • Described how GIS was used after the San Simeon earthquake. • Not integrated into disaster planning • Databases designed after the incident, not beforehand
Alfie Blanch, State OES • Described CaSIL, FRAP, GeoMAC and FIRESCOPE • Needs to know who GIS personnel are • Needs local data on: • Roads • Buildings • Parcels • Hydrology
Tim Craig, ESRI, described GIS use during San Diego firestorms: • Described Mountain Area Safety Task Force (MAST) data collaborative, and SanGIS • Important layers are: •Transportation Layers •Parcels •Land Use •Imagery •DEM •Vegetation / CDF Fuel Type / CDF Fire Threat •Roadblock Locations •Evacuation Plans •Helipad Locations •Communications Facilities •Political & School Boundaries •Water & Power Lines •Fire Station locations / Jurisdictions •Land Ownership •Contours •Census / Demographic Data •Soils •Hydro Layers (streams & lakes) •Hospital Locations
Dawn Robbins, Ventura County GIO • Described GIS layers requested by USGS for homeland security, and the National Map • Discussed potential funding opportunities for layer development and imagery acquisition that benefit homeland security

Structures • Hazardous materials, use • Structure type (I.e. unreinforced masonry) • Address • Imagery • Want best of these parameters: • Resolution (prefer <= 30 cm pixels) • Currency (prefer <= 2 years old) • Locational accuracy (prefer <= 3 meters)
Jurisdictional boundaries • City limits • County boundaries • State borders • National borders • Special districts • Fire, water, police, school, etc.
Hydrology • Streams • Lakes/reservoirs • Flood Plain • Dam Inundation areas • Flood Control facilities
Elevation • Contours • Intervals appropriate for local terrain • Raster or DEM • 10 meter horizontal resolution • Precalculated slope and aspect • Hillshade image

Contact list • Listed as the most important item by presenters!
To Do: • Refine list • Individual inventory by members—use the metadata catalog! • Distribution • Many difficult discussions ahead, including method, ownership, privacy and security
