Using Existing Data
Like most water utilities Gardiner Water District (GWD) had pre-exisitng GIS data that was in a format they couldn’t readily edit without assistance from a contractor. Refering to a PDF or paper map now and then was all they could do.
Hence the start of moving to ArcGIS Online. Now able to access items from there phone.
Asset Capture, Update, Enhancement
As water districts grow and add on, assets are constantly relocated or added. Therefore, when we conducted data capture, we wanted to ensure it was consistent with the data format GWD was after our data review.
Our findings during data capture is that many assets previously collected were, in fact, misplaced. Because we could see this in the field, we were able to update the data right then and there.
What came after that was the enhancement of data. From the addition of things found or recaptured in the field to addresses and account numbers assigned to the parcels provided by the town, the data was designed and made more consistent for all workers involved.
A System On Their Terms
GWD doesn’t have the newest and greatest equipment. Nor should it have to. What GWD was after was an editor that any staff member in the district could use. Enter ArcGIS Online Webapps. Through online access, GWD can update and maintain information from the office or home. The best part is no extra expense for a program they will only use as a reference tool.
