  2. INTRODUCTION • AT ISSUE: Develop New Maps for GBRA’s Web Site • Current map is a static map only • Shows watershed boundaries only with no other info GOAL OF THE PROJECT: • Create new maps for addition to their web site • Interactive maps for visitors to see and use • Create data which can be downloaded from site

  3. Current Map: Prepared for GBRA’s 2007 Basin Highlights Report Source: GBRA Web Site www.gbra.org

  4. Methodology • DATA MUST UNDERGO THE FOLLOWING STEPS • Phase 1: Data Collection and Development • Phase 2: Data Assembly (Arc-GIS Software) • Phase 3: Web-GIS Assembly (Manifold Software)

  5. PHASE 1: Data Collection Source: touringtexas.com

  6. Task • Geo-Tex Spatial Solutions (GTSS) must collect data to built GIS-web interactive maps • GTSS must make available about 11 different types of layers to help inform the wide range of GBRA website users • Data must be from reliable sources

  7. Data Collection Methods • Internet • Phone • Excel files Source: www.churchinuptown.com

  8. Data Sources

  9. Issues with Data • The rights to use the data • Waiting to receive data • Finding incomplete data • Size of data • Overall time spent looking for data Source: www.ilmfinder

  10. Phase 2: Data Assembly • The purpose of the Data Assembly is to determine which map data is most suitable for the needs of GBRA. The data will be assembled using a GIS software and will include : • Data provided by GBRA • Data discovered from outside agencies • Develop data collected from raw data • However, even after the completion date, it is expected Geo-Tex may need to continue to collect and assemble data as needed.

  11. PHASE 3: WEB GIS • By using the Manifold Program (Web GIS) it makes the maps interactive with the user in many ways. • The World-Wide Web opens doors for everyone with internet to make available GeoSpatial Information.

  12. Phase 3: WEB GIS • Benefits to the User: • View only layers they would like to see • Makes the maps easier and faster to download • Easy to Navigate • GIS information available to all society members

  13. PHASE 3: WEB GIS (Sample Map)
