What is GIS? • GIS is a technology that manages, analyzes, and disseminates geographic knowledge. • GIS lets you model scenarios to test various hypotheses and see outcomes visually • GIS is, therefore, about modeling and mapping the world for better decision making. 2005 Logistics Summit
GIS Technologies • Spatial Datasets • Road Network • Routes, ramps, rail, bridges… • Permanent restrictions • Low Clearance, weight, lane width, turning radius… • Temporary restrictions • Construction,maintenance, environmental, major accidents… 2005 Logistics Summit
GIS Technologies • Geocoding • Use address ranges, road names and zip code data on the road network to locate addresses. • Find the begin and end point for the route quicker and more accurately. 2005 Logistics Summit
GIS Technologies • Routing • Programmatically find the most efficient route between locations on the road network. • Use restriction data associated with the road segments in comparison to the vehicle specs to determine the most acceptable route. 2005 Logistics Summit
Using the Technologies for Permitting • Online process • Accounts setup • Online permit submittal • Envelope Routes • Predefined routes • Approval based on envelope selection, vehicle setup, date of travel and restrictions posted for the travel time. • Manual Review • Geocoded locations • New GIS based Bridge and Restriction Maps. • Electronic payment • Online permit printing 2005 Logistics Summit
Using the Technologies for Permitting • Future Processes • Automatic Route Generation and alternatives. • User selects begin and end points and date for travel. • System analyzes all possible routes based on • Vehicle configuration • Temporary restrictions on routes during travel time • Permanent route restrictions • Results are one or many of the following • Primary route (shortest or quickest route) • Alternative routes • Alternative dates if no successful route is found within the given travel time and the cause for no routes to be found was a temporary restriction. • Manual review 2005 Logistics Summit
Using the Technologies for Permitting • Restriction Mapping other uses • Develop Adobe PDF maps and online dynamic maps to show current restrictions to general public • Restriction data is used in public 511 system for traffic conditions reported via phone. • Restriction database allows for a single repository of all restriction, construction, maintenance, environmental and major accidents to be disseminated to parties that need to be informed via pager, email, list-serv and internet applications. • Data entry of restrictions can occur at the most appropriate levels within state government. • INDOT District and sub-district offices • INDOT Traffic Management Centers • State Police District Offices 2005 Logistics Summit
