This session will cover today’s decision-making process for employing three automated surveying technologies when approaching a mapping project. The session will present considerations for using land surveying, aircraft, UAS and/or a combination of the 3 techniques for a particular mapping project. Consideration of scope, accuracy, precision, site location, site conditions, site access, FAA airspace limitations, deliverables, budget and schedule are all factors to be evaluated in order to be competitive, meet client requirements and expectations, and be in compliance with applicable state and federal law.
This Full Day Workshop will be presented with two instructors, one a GIS staffer (F. Peirce Eichelberger) and one a surveyor (Peter Borbas) using with many graphics, illustrations and photographs. The point/counterpoint format encourages attendee interest and engagement. The format allows for the development of two perspectives on many key issues that need to be discussed and better understood by all involved. Interactive sections in the workshop are planned. This workshop will benefit the larger GIS, survey and related communities, ex. title communities, assessment and Clerks and Recorders. GIS interests will get a new appreciation for the role of surveyors in GIS including, geodetic control, base map accuracy, precision, as-builts and other GIS theme/layer involvement. Surveyors will gain a new appreciation of what is GIS and better understand their important role with all things pertaining to legal descriptions. A goal of the workshop is for both the GIS and survey communities to better understand each other’s perspectives and what each brings to the table.

The goal of this half day workshop is to strengthen the relationship between GIS and Emergency Management communities. The first topic to be covered will teach the GIS user how an Emergency Operations Center (EOC) is organized and where they fit into the overall response to the disaster. You will learn about the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and study the relationship between the EOC and the on-scene Incident Command System (ICS) used by first responders. Next you will learn how to create and view reports within E Team, the State of New Jersey’s situational awareness platform. The workshop will conclude by teaching how to spatially enable the real time data so that they can be migrated into your agency’s native GIS environment.
Requirement for registration: This workshop is intended for those who will staff or directly assist an EOC during a disaster. Since you will be receiving the same training and have the same access to E Team as all emergency managers you will need to receive permission from your local, county, or state Office of Emergency Management (OEM) prior to the workshop. When you submit your registration for the workshop you will be given instructions on how to contact your appropriate OEM for approval. Certain exemptions can be made for private sector employees, please contact Tom Rafferty at NJOEM for details. Walk in registrations will not be accepted.

In 2022, the National Geodetic Survey will be replacing the U.S. horizontal and vertical datums (NAD 83 and NAVD 88). We will discuss the history of these datums, their relationship to other reference frames, the reasons for the change, and how it affects positioning professionals and their use of these datums. We will spot light how good coordinates can go really bad, without proper planning. The amount of data, how data is used and the type of data users have exponential increased since the NAD 27 to NAD 83 conversion, which has also increased the potential for introducing error.

Since 1998, Burlington County has been maintaining its own GPS road centerlines which are heavily used internally for mapping. However, the GPS centerlines do not contain address attributes thereby causing us to rely on commercial datasets for addressing. In 2012, the commercial dataset was replaced by the newly created road centerlines provided by the New Jersey Office of GIS.
In order to support our 911 call center, it became necessary for Burlington County to review and edit the centerlines from NJ OGIS. This effort is still ongoing in a maintenance phase. Roads and addresses do not exist in a vacuum; they are related to and interdependent on many other layers as well as information and processes that can feed into GIS. Burlington County tries to account for this in our update methodology.
This presentation will cover Burlington County’s initial experience editing and enhancing the centerlines, the workflows and processes we have in place to continually update both the GPS road centerlines and the roads for 911, and our recent work to prepare the 911 centerlines to support an upgrade to our 911 CAD software. This upgrade will bring us a step closer to Next Gen 911.
Throughout the past 6 years of editing and maintaining the 911 centerlines, we have worked with the New Jersey Office of GIS so our updates can be incorporated into their statewide NJ Roadway Centerlines. In 2018, we are embarking on a partnership with NJ OGIS to supply them with new roads and edits through a geodata service.

***CANCELED***Disturbances are frequently the impetus for habitat change, but this is especially true at the land-sea interface. In coastal dunes that buffer upland areas, dynamic flux is the norm, and wind events, especially major storms, have the potential to drive change by denuding once vegetated microhabitats and creating hollow blowout depressions. These blowouts are considered ephemeral, ripe for recolonization, and inherent among coastal systems, both recently storm-affected and ‘healthy’, worldwide. However, we do not understand on what timescale recolonization operates or what factors control the rate and magnitude of localized changes associated with further erosion or vegetated stabilization. Since Superstorm Sandy, October 2012, we have conducted a yearly census of blowouts created by the storm along a 3km stretch of a model barrier island coastal dune system, Island Beach State Park, NJ. We use a Trimble GeoXT Explorer 2008 and vertex mapping to map the outermost vegetated blowout edges as a metric of extent change over time. Using various GIS tools, we split these polygon bowls up into quadrants and halves to explore extent shifts directionally within quadrants defined by compass direction as it relates to wind direction; substrate stability and blowout extent shifts are likely coupled with wind forcing dictating where vegetation is able to root and survive. We are also using structure from motion with drones to create RTK-GPS referenced digital elevation models (DEMs). With these models, we can explore how the boundaries of the bowls, as defined by ground truthing the plant extents, differs from the boundaries of the bowls, as defined the change in angle or drop off from foredune into the depression. Thus far, we have mapped the bowls with ArcMap and Trimble four times, since Sandy in Fall 2013, 2014, 2016, and 2017. After Sandy, there were 55 blowouts of various sizes and shapes within the foredunes. As of 2017, 29 of these 55 have become colonized and 26 remain unvegetated though their extents have changed. Distinctly new bowls have been created each year and fragmentation of existing bowls from colonization has also occurred. The edges of bowls have been changing location over time primarily due to vegetation encroachment via clonal growth, with negligible germination from the seedbank. Results show that the smaller the blowout, the more ephemeral it will be. We have thus far flown three drone flights, March 2017, December 2017, and March 2018. We can visualize the bowls with these flights and subtract the DEMS to look at changes in the bowl geometry. Similarly, we compare the March 2017 DEM extents to the Fall 2017 ground truthing to relate the two definitions that one might define as the boundary of a blowout. Understanding the controls on dune recolonization in a natural setting has implications for management with dictating planting locations as well so for understanding how habitats will likely change and evolve as a function of increasing disturbances related to climate change. ***CANCELED*** This talk has been canceled ***CANCELED***

Harrisburg University is working on a large grant project in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to create raster mosaic datasets of underground mine maps in the State of Pennsylvania. This compilation of datasets involves a great deal of map analysis – looking for elevation points, common mine workings, and other underground mine features, as well as examining cross sections of coal seams. After many maps are analyzed to determine which have optimal features, the georeferencing and the digitizing of the mosaic footprint is performed. Underground mine maps are often georeferenced to surface maps and surface features, and sometimes even to each other using specific edge-matching techniques. Once a mosaic dataset is created, analysis of the workings begins and leads to the digitization of particular mine workings that are valuable to examining mine subsidence risks in the state. This presentation will discuss the methodology behind the creation of underground mine map mosaics using the Mosaic Raster Tools in ArcGIS and some of the problems that are encountered along the way. Lastly, this presentation will look at the significance of these mosaics in terms of how they effect the public.
Wildlife corridor analysis is a conservation tool used to identify and preserve undisturbed habitat connectivity, allowing species to have access to breeding sites, and food sources that minimize the risk of vehicle collisions. As the human footprint increases habitat fragmentation threatens the health of these ecosystems. Historically, corridor analysis has been directed at larger mammals, but the same principles can be applied to smaller species such as reptiles and amphibians. This project details a methodology for modeling a series of fine-scale wildlife corridors with high-resolution data layers using a geographic information system (GIS). A focus of this project is to use Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) for geospatial technology to model fine-scale wildlife corridors. I developed a fine-scale approach based on the habitat needs of the Eastern Tiger Salamander in the Ridge and Valley Physiographic Province of Virginia. Both raster and vector GIS data formats were used along with Python scripting to create a repeatable process. The analysis identified widespread fragmentation of habitat and breeding sites throughout the species’ habitat and identified key areas where mitigation techniques should be initiated. Relying solely on FOSS technology, data preparation and analysis were completed with PostGIS, GDAL, QGIS, and Python. The analysis process was designed to be easily adopted by groups without access to often expensive proprietary software and aims to highlight high-risk areas and inform conservation efforts so that mitigation strategies can be developed.

Leveraging Vector Tiles to Query Statewide Habitat Data in a Browser. Need to use large datasets for environmental projects? This is the talk for you! We’ll dive into the process we used to make a statewide wildlife habitat dataset of 1 million polygons accessible in the browser. Previously, GIS technicians took minutes or hours to process this huge data set for custom operations in order to answer questions about habitat details on specific sites. Now, a user can draw a custom area in a browser window and return results in seconds, enabling efficient compliance with environmental regulations. Learn how we used multiple open source libraries/tools like GDAL ogr2ogr, Tippecanoe, Turf, and Mapbox GL JS to build the tool.

Some of the biggest benefits from GIS will be in areas we have yet to explore. These areas are in Finance and auditing. This session will describe 12 projects where GeoAuditing was used to generate over $60M! The repeatability/transferability of these projects will be shared with the attendees.
The techniques and methods of GeoAuditing will be described and explored. The 12 projects will be used as repeatable case studies. The importance of geography as a “ground truth” for other datasets will be explored. The foundation of Enterprise GIS makes these Geoauditing activities possible. We will use the five precepts of Enterprise GIS as a framework to undertake Geoauditing.
A typology of Geoauditing procedures will be introduced and described
The five precepts of Enterprise GIS are: Need to support time slices and historic data, including attribute data. GIS has the highest quality of data, with staff charged to keeping it that way! Addresses and supporting framework are fundamental when working with external data. GIS has the most complete datasets, and Enterprise GIS has 3-D and subparcel entities defined.

Over the past 5 years, Middlesex County, NJ has been creating and updating its underlying data layers to create an Enterprise GIS. Now the County is actively using GIS in day to day processes from capital improvement projects to asset management. The County created a web portal so that users can view, download and manage GIS data and applications from the County’s Enterprise GIS. Users can download data layers in multiple formats such as CSV, GeoJSON, Shapefile and FileGDB. The tiered log-in model allows administrators to manage data dissemination and monitor site activity with a robust dashboard showing metrics such as server status, data download frequency and availability. The dashboard also shows detailed metadata updated live from SDE layers edited by multiple stewards. Administrators can easily edit, update and add applications from other sites for easy viewing by the public on the front page. The interactive map also allows users to view, print and download spatial information. Technology for this portal consists of .NET, JavaScript, Bootstrap, and D3. This presentation will demonstrate the application and management tools developed.

Michael Baker International, Inc. was tasked by the NJDOT Bureau of Environmental Program Resources to inventory stormwater basins and outfalls for assessment purposes. The primary goal of the project was to obtain and compile assessments to identify maintenance requirements and remedial actions to address issues including erosion and sedimentation, which may affect downstream surface water quality. The project involved collecting stormwater outfalls and basins along 650 miles of roadway across central New Jersey, which was previously a paper based process. Two-person field crews were responsible for collecting characteristic information about each basin and outfall as well as additional data points such as inlets, manholes, control structures, ditches, swales, and basin boundaries. Multiple images were captured for each location to aid in identifying maintenance requirements and remedial actions. Field data collection was performed using Collector for ArcGIS and Survey123 using a high accuracy GPS receiver connected to iPad and Android tablets via Bluetooth. At the completion of each route inventory a final package was created based on field data analysis which included reports, recommendations, maintenance cost estimates, and photos in addition to the field collected data in multiple formats.

Integrating CAD and GIS for Infrastructure Asset Management. The principal goal of asset management (AM) is to meet a required level of service in the most cost-effective way. AM processes are often characterized by high diversity of involved stakeholders, each with their own interests, tools and workflows - often non-interoperable. Furthermore, hurdles to effective AM includes data silos and diversity of data types used for asset life cycle analysis. This results in data intensive, complex AM processes and costly, inefficient information management throughout the life cycle of assets. The key elements for effective infrastructure asset management include taking a lifecycle approach and monitoring performance to understand and manage risks associated with asset failures. This can be accomplished through a Decision Support System (DSS) that integrate Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) and Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies. The aim of this paper is demonstrate a means of reducing some AM complexities by integrating CAD and GIS technologies on a pilot project of a water distribution system for the City of Newark NJ.

The New Jersey Geographic Information Network (NJGIN) portal, v. 1.0, was built 16 years ago to be a central place for the GIS community to find geospatial content. Since that time, technology has evolved, the way that geospatial content owners share their content has evolved and expectations about searching for content has also changed. The NJGIN portal, https://njgin.nj.gov, is also evolving and being rebuilt from the ground up to streamline how people find and access content as well as make it easier for data stewards to share their authoritative information. This session will review lessons learned from operating the original NJGIN portal and focus on how the NJ Office of GIS, along with its partners, are modernizing the way geospatial content is shared and discovered in the Garden State with the NJGIN 3.0 project.
NJGIN 3.0 - Metadata Requirements & Recommendations / Good news! Handling documentation for shared data will be much easier in the NJGIN 3.0 environment than it has been in earlier NJGIN releases. The need to document shared data has not changed, and structured metadata is still the best way to do that. Structured metadata can both document data for internal and shared use, and also serve as an efficient cataloging tool. Because there are big changes both in hosting environments for sharing data and metadata, and in metadata authoring tools, there is a learning curve involved. For ArcGIS Online Items, full metadata is accepted only in ArcGIS format. NJGIN 3.0 initially is using ArcGIS Online metadata style FGDC-CSDGM (Federal Geographic Data Committee Content Standard for Geospatial Metadata - the old one.) ArcCatalog 10.3.1 and later can be used to transition from existing FGDC-CSDGM metadata and to update the resulting ArcGIS format files, or to write informative metadata from scratch; both products will function properly on ArcGIS Online sites configured to use FGDC-CSDGM style metadata. Uploaded metadata can be used to fully populate the ArcGIS Online Item Information. In order to do the work described above, a user has to configure the ArcCatalog metadata editor properly. It also helps to understand that the editor interface and the ArcGIS metadata file are organized around the ISO geospatial metadata standards; as a result, authors familiar with the FGDC-CSDGM often need some assistance in learning new “locations” for some pieces of information. The NJ Office of GIS publishes help documents to provide guidance on what information is required for cataloging data to be shared on NJGIN 3.0, and what additional information is required for full documentation of state resource GIS data. Authors of New Jersey data who do not use Esri products are welcome to contact the NJ Office of GIS for assistance in getting their data and standard-compliant metadata published. The future is rapidly approaching when one of the suite of ISO 19115 standards for geospatial metadata will be the metadata style for NJGIN. The NJ Office of GIS anticipates making the transition after Esri’s Pro software has full metadata functionality.

The actual process of publishing content, sharing it and getting it included in the statewide NJGIN Search is simpler that you may expect. In this last presentation of this session, we will pull it all together and show how a local government partner actually publishes content, such as a data file or map service, and how that same content is configured for Search in the NJGIN site by OGIS. We will publish content, attach a metadata record to it and share it as well as demonstrate the steps taken by OGIS to include that content in NJGIN Search. The publisher retains control of their content throughout the entire process including content updates and removing one’s content from the NJGIN Search.
In New Jersey’s County Planning Act, county master plans are intended to drive the local capital program.

The North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority, Inc. (NJTPA) is the federally funded Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the northern New Jersey region, which is home to 6.7 million people and covers about three quarters of the state. The NJTPA, with support from JMT Technology Group, developed the Planning Recommendations Integration Management Engine (PRIME) based on a prototype developed by agency staff. PRIME is a web-based relational database system composed of individual geo-referenced records. It contains specific transportation problems (needs) and solutions (recommendations) taken from a wide range of planning studies developed by the NJTPA, its subregions and partner agencies. PRIME enables transportation planning and engineering professionals to enter these records, search through category, keyword and lasso search methods, set connections between the needs and recommendations records and core policies and investment strategies of the NJTPA, query and view records at varying geographic scales, assess them in context with the NJTPA’s performance based planning process and use analysis tools that will help bundle related recommendations into possible projects that could be advanced for further study or implementation.
PRIME provides an intuitive interface for mapping study needs and recommendations, tools for packaging complementary needs and recommendations with information from other planning efforts, analytical tools to draw spatial and non-spatial connections between needs and recommendations, and tools to export reports.PRIME utilizes Esri’s JavaScript API to interact with ArcGIS server. PRIME’s functionality includes the capability to create project boundaries from existing GIS layers, to support the import of project locations, and to support tracking the history of data entry and editing. Reporting and analysis tools provide the ability to package data and generate specific reports based on analysis of the system database. The PRIME report allows for the generation of summaries of the recommendations that have advanced toward implementation phase pull information from complementary agency datasets and produce real-time summary statistics and graphical charts for all attributes and relationships. The Scoping report assists users with packaging related needs and recommendations based on the location and to specifically define attributes regarding the relationships. ArcGIS server provides all required spatial analytical functions that are not handled with built-in SQL Server spatial functionality. The presentation will address the NJTPA’s vision for PRIME, how GIS provides decision support through both spatial analysis and providing spatial context, the key project challenges, and important takeaways from the project. Slides will be used to guide the presentation and to provide visuals where appropriate.

In an effort to provide the traveling public with timely and accurate information about transportation mode choices, particularly “shared-ride” alternatives to driving alone, Michael Baker International, in conjunction with the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority (NJTPA) developed a data model and workflow for creating, publishing and maintaining a General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS). The NJTPA Shared Pilot Shared Transportation Services Data Model project included information from twenty-three (23) data feeds from fifteen (15) shared-ride agencies. Using a variety of technology including ArcGIS, python, and SQL server, Michael Baker developed an extract, transform and load (ETL) process to collect and validate transit data from the various transit agencies into one unified GTFS feed to be consumed by third party applications like Google and Apple. Additionally, Michael Baker and the NJTPA developed outreach, implementation and maintenance plans to support future development and expansion of the system as need and interest of shared-ride mode choices increase. In this session, attendees will learn about the GTFS format, its utilization for transit information dissemination, and how to leverage Python/ArcPy for automating the data unification process.

NJGIN 3.0 – Federated Search & Sharing. The familiar NJGIN portal, https://njgin.nj.gov, is being rebuilt as part of a project known as NJGIN 3.0. NJGIN 3.0 uses an entirely new technology foundation compared to the previous NJGIN portal, released back in 2003. Today we are leveraging Esri’s ArcGIS Online Open Data web application as the search interface for geospatial content. ArcGIS Online also forms the distributed Software as a Service framework that allows data stewards to retain complete control over their authoritative content while supporting federated Search from the central NJGIN 3.0 portal. In this techspo we will present this underlying technical architecture, the capabilities that it provides to the NJ GIS community and also a number of best practices for those data stewards who wish to participate.
*New Jersey Roads and Addresses – Taking the Collaborative Route (Deepa Sanjeevaraya): As an initiative to support- geocoding, 911 Emergency dispatching, routing and transportation needs, the New Jersey Office of Geographic Information System (NJ OGIS) has created a statewide centerlines and addresses database. Which successively will also serve as foundation information for New Jersey’s Next Generation 911 database. To attain these goals, the NJ OGIS is requesting local government partners (county, municipal and Public Safety Answering Point(PSAP) entities) to collaborate with us on reviewing, updating and validating the records to generate and maintain an accurate and encompassing database. This talk will present various collective methods available for potential partners for data maintenance and sharing. **Detailed Statewide School Locations - The NJ Office of GIS Approach (Yelena Pikovskaya): Knowing the locations of schools throughout New Jersey is very important. They are needed for uses like proximity to known contaminated sites, emergency dispatching, homeland security, prospective homebuyers, Megan’s Law applications and drug free school zone development. Every year the NJ Office of GIS (NJOGIS) works in conjunction with the NJ Department of Education (NJDOE) to update school locations throughout the state. This process includes taking the NJDOE tabular data, running various models, analysis queries, research and manual verification using multiple sources to update the spatial location points of all the schools throughout the state. The school locations include known public, public charter and non-public schools. The annual updates include new school locations, relocated schools, closed school campuses and additional campus locations. ***Introduction to BIM - GIS Integration (Moderated Presentation ~25 minutes): Building Information Modeling or “BIM” technology has become the the hottest trend in the construction industry since Autodesk released their white paper “Building Information Modeling” in the early 2000’s. Promising improved planning, design, construction, and operations of the facility over its entire life cycle was what the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry was looking for. Similar to GIS, BIM is a digital representation of the different elements within a facility with the added value of performing advanced geospatial based analysis. BIM is the evolution of CAD towards GIS while focusing on its strengths for the AEC industry. Last November, Esri’s president Jack Dangermond, and Autodesk’s president and CEO, Andrew Anagnost, announced “the start of a new relationship to build a bridge between BIM and GIS mapping technologies”. This unusual cooperation between the two toughest and largest competitors in the market ignited the spark for a new era: the GIS-BIM integration. This presentation will focus on the BIM technology and its effect on the GIS technology and community. The presentation will present some of the challenges, opportunities and concerns in GIS-BIM integration through case studies. The presentation will conclude with a discussion on the future engagement of the GIS and BIM communities. ****CANCELED* Effects of Uber in Low-Income Communities (Moderated Presentation ~25 minutes): Transportation options have recently evolved into the sharing economy; however, not all communities have access to these options due to multiple historical and contemporary barriers. Is the sharing economy inaccessible to low-income communities? In the context of major transportation, hospitality, and marketplace branches evolving due to new ventures, how will low-income communities adapt to changes in established public transportation modes? The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of Uber on low-income communities. Specifically, the accessibility of services, or lack thereof, being provided to these communities and testing their feasibility as a mode of transportation in comparison with higher-income communities. Six randomly selected low-income and high-income census tracts will be used to explore the service coverage and accessibility of Uber. The data collected from low-income census tracts will be compared to those from high-income census tracts using a t-test and regressions to determine similarity or difference of service coverage between the tracts and the significance of different variables. Results are expected to display disparities between high-income and low-income census tracts. Low-income census tracts are predicted to have less service coverage and accessibility as determined by price and wait time. *CANCELED***

Have you ever wished for a tool that allowed you to easily access recent basemaps of remote sensing data? How much time have you spent researching, downloading, subsetting, reprojecting, mosaicking, and examining geospatial data in your favorite GIS program, only to realize later it was not right for your project? This presentation will provide demonstrations of two tools that can help you solve these common problems in the GIS world. First, we will look at NASA’s Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center’s (LP DAAC) Web Map Services (WMS) tool to access rolling Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) imagery as basemaps for your projects. Next, we will take a deep dive into data using the Application for Extracting and Exploring Analysis Ready Samples (AppEEARS). This simple tool can help you find, customize, analyze, and download federal geospatial data in a matter of hours – not days, months, or even years. Using AppEEARS, you have no-cost access to geospatial data that provides information about surface temperature, fire, snow cover, vegetation, population, and more! This application allows you to visualize and explore data values and associated quality data information via interactive plots and graphs prior to download.

As an alternative to the standard presentation format, please join us for a moderated Q&A session. We will break out into groups for discussion around the issues of GIS best management practices implementation at the organizational level.
When GIS is implemented as a platform, it connects maps, apps, data and people in ways that help organizations make more informed and faster decisions, extending the reach of GIS across the enterprise. Realizing the value of GIS as a platform, however, does not simply adhere to a “one size fits all” approach but rather one must understand system capabilities and deployment patterns in order to institute a GIS that meets an organization’s objectives. This session will present a number of established, conceptual Best Practices for enterprise GIS and in turn, relate each to a real world operational experience of the NJ Office of GIS, NJ Office of Information Technology.

The five precepts are useful as they provide a framework for defining, planning and implementing Enterprise GIS. While these precepts take a data focused view which experience has shown has delivered excellent results. The precepts also help determine needed GIS applications and datasets.
Time Slices/Historic Data A big change to accomplish Enterprise GIS is to begin to provide historic data for the most critical data in the GIS data model. This relates to pixels and vectors as well as attributes. The surveyor’s role is especially critical when we add time slices and historic data to our Enterprise GIS.
Highest Quality of Data Almost by definition, all GIS data, themes or layers will need to be of the absolute highest quality. This includes pixels, vectors and many attributes too. With GIS data quality assured many more uses and applications are possible from GIS, especially many finance and Geoauditing opportunities. The surveyor’s role is especially critical in this precept as others.
Addresses and Supporting Framework In forty years plus, implementing GIS has shown us the overwhelming importance of situs addresses as the most fundamental part of the GIS architecture and integral to the GIS’ enhanced data model. The role of 3-D and addresses will also be covered. The important role of the centerline constructs will also be covered.
Complete Data sets This precept represents complete coverage of an activity, inventory, category or condition. QA/QC procedures will also be covered. Daily operations to ensure data quality will be covered.
3-D/Subparcels This goes far beyond “building points” as we must include all apartments, suites, rooms and occupancies in our Enterprise GIS. Air and mineral rights are another perspective on 3-D/Subparcels. The plethora of underground and above ground utilities will also be needed for Enterprise GIS. The notion of subparcels is “catching on” and will change our entire perspective on Enterprise GIS. With parking spaces now being bought and sold we must also connect parking lots and spaces better to GIS.

Working with your GIS data in 3D allows you to see things in their true perspective, make better decisions and communicate your ideas with more impact. A common starting point to generating 3D content is lidar, which has evolved to become a common source of geographic data. As GIS professionals begin working with lidar, it can feel overwhelming to work with such large datasets and potentially new toolsets. Fortunately, getting started with 3D has never been easier! With ArcGIS Pro and Web GIS, there are clear, documented steps offered as solution templates to derive useful 3D datasets from lidar and share the results on the web to gain greater value. In this workshop, attendees will gain an understanding of the available tools and workflows that let you transform lidar into useful 3D scenes that can be the basis for advanced visualization and further analysis.

The District of Columbia Department of Energy & Environment (DOEE) have funded a project through the U.S. Geological Survey, National Geospatial Program (USGS) to create an integrated urban waterway system of surface water derived from lidar digital elevation models and hydro-enforced. Surface water is connected to infalls and outfalls of the storm-water network, and connecting pipes and culverts at the local resolution of the National Hydrographic Dataset (NHD). Local jurisdiction data has been obtained for guidance and transformation to the NHD and the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD). Lidar and local jurisdiction data will be used to update and delineate the WBD to the 14-digit level. The production work is being performed by Quantum Spatial Incorporated, the USGS and local partners will quality assure content, and the USGS will enter the completed hydrography data into the National Hydrographic Dataset. The project area includes eight HUC-12s that all have some area in the District of Columbia. A number partner datasets have been contributed from DC Water, Fairfax County, Virginia, City of Alexandria, Virginia, and Arlington County, Virginia to create a large scale metropolitan area hydrography dataset. The Maryland Department of the Environment is also creating a densified stream network for the HUC-12s upstream from those that are in the District of Columbia. This presentation will provide an overview of the submitted project data types, issues encountered in data consistency, data integration, production approaches, and a look at preliminary data from the production pilot area of the Anacostia Watershed in the District of Columbia, and follow-on projects now being planned. This presentation will also show the current lack of NHD data in large urban centers, and how this project will address that kind of data gap and support urban water studies. From the DOEE and other data partners perspectives, this integrated surface and storm-water network brings them closer to effective storm water management solutions as this will be available to monitor and manage as an integrated system. This project will provide a hydrography network to better evaluate “interior” flooding events identified by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the District of Columbia not due to riverine or coastal flooding processes.

The combination of Hurricane Irene and Superstorm Sandy over such a short period of time was a game changer for many New Jersey communities. With Hurricane Irene, historic inland flooding throughout the State had prompted planners and water resource managers working in riparian areas to pay focused attention on measures that could be implemented to mitigate high impact flooding from regularly occurring storm events. Following Irene and Sandy, the concept of “resilience” became a pressing and operative priority for many New Jersey municipalities. Hurricane Irene and Superstorm Sandy provided a mechanism to begin the tough conversations with communities in New Jersey about how to understand their risks to future storm events. A team at Rutgers University with acknowledgements to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and the New Jersey Office of Emergency Management, developed a 3D elevation model of all homes, businesses, and infrastructure in Ocean County shoreline communities located within current A and V Zones of the Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs). An online viewer was developed to visualize the mobile-based LiDAR that was collected in these areas. First floor estimations were then calculated and examined against existing elevations from an individual property’s elevation certificate. These data can then be viewed alongside previous damage data (NFIP, Substantial Damages) and projected flood hazard data to understand which properties are at risk from future storm events.

The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) has been performing roadway characteristics inventory statewide leveraging a 20+ year old application to capture LRS and GPS details. NJDOT has also been providing this tool for consultants as a standardized process for inventory. This tool is no longer functional on modern PCs, and the NJDOT has contracted to build a replacement application. This presentation will provide an overview of the newly developed system, which provides a modern inventory interface and code-base that maintains integration with standardized validation and loading procedures. This new application is meant to function completely disconnected and function on MS Windows 10 tablet devices.

PSAP is the once a decade geographic program that offers local governments and regional planning agencies the opportunity to review and modify select statistical boundaries that the U.S. Census Bureau uses to count people and produce data for the 2020 Census and beyond.
Statistical boundaries are used by the Census Bureau to produce small-area statistics and spatial data to provide relevant, useful data about population, income and housing for small-area geographic analyses. These boundaries tabulate data for the 2020 Census, the American Community Survey and the Economic Census. Data tabulated to PSAP geographies are used by state and local agencies for planning and funding purposes, as well as by the private sector, academia and the public.
The standard statistical geographies include Census tracts, Census block groups and Census Designated Places. The program allows participants (primarily at the county level) to make modifications to Census tract boundaries when current boundaries are found to be invalid. Participants are also asked to suggest boundaries for splitting Census tracts when population thresholds exceed stated criteria. Participants may also modify Census block group boundaries to better reflect local data needs.
Census Designated Places (CDPs) are unincorporated sections of a town that are held as a statistical unit. Participants may suggest CDP boundary expansion, contraction or dissolution. This is also the only opportunity this decade to suggest new Census Designated Places.
To reduce participant burden, the Census Bureau anticipates creating 2020 Census statistical areas for review and update by PSAP participants. Participants may accept the Census Bureau’s 2020 Census proposed statistical areas, update the 2020 Census proposed statistical areas, or use the 2010 Census Statistical area geography as a base to make updates.
Participants reviewing standard statistical area geographies are required to use the Census Bureau’s Geographic Update Partnership Software (GUPS) to delineate updates. The GUPS runs in QGIS, which is an open source Geographic Information System (GIS), and it contains all functionality required to make PSAP updates, execute automated checks for program criteria compliance, and create standardized data output files for Census Bureau processing. The GUPS will be available for download from the Census Bureau's website or available on DVD.
In July 2018, the Census Bureau will invite regional planning agencies and local governments to participate in PSAP. In January 2019, the delineation phase will begin. Participants have 120 calendar days to submit updates.

Cape May Co, NJ is looking to provide its internal staff and the public with the graphical and textual status of flood related information such as real-time gauge station information, flood inundation levels based upon flood stages, and the identification of flood impacted infrastructure and areas with demographic information valuable to understanding of impacted citizens. Esri’s Flood Management with ArcGIS template is a configuration of Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS and ArcGIS Online that can be used by County operational staff to track near-real time NOAA and USGS water level gauges and identify who will be impacted based upon predetermined flood stage levels. This application provides 24/7 access to the information which can be placed on the County’s website for citizen access and/or other operational organizations. This presentation will focus on the County’s needs and the implementation of the solution.

The presentation will show the life cycle for data management during emergency responses. The process start with data collection in the field (with Collector, Survey123, FileMaker like technology) all the way to the lab and visualization via viewers, reports, story maps based on the client needs. Field data collection could be captured dynamically and visualized as it is being collected or after the initial QA is done. Once the field data is collected and QC is done utilizing one of the tools, it is loaded to an environmental RDBMS where the initial additional QC takes place. The data then is being sent to labs to be analyzed while the data is also served out via different mechanism feeding Story Maps, Viewers, Reports and a wide variety of other required outputs. When the results are received from the labs, after QC and data validation it gets to be loaded to the environmental RDBMS.

Real-time indication of regional flooding based upon streamflow conditions is available online at the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) WaterWatch web page (https://waterwatch.usgs.gov/).
This web tool displays maps, graphs and tables of current and historic flood conditions at USGS streamgage locations across the United States. WaterWatch is a complement to forecasts, watches and warnings provided by the National Weather Service (NWS). Information from WaterWatch can be used to initiate early emergency coordination as well as plan post-flood data collection efforts.
This presentation will introduce the capabilities of WaterWatch to identify conditions of flooding at various map scales and at various thresholds of severity related to NWS flood stages. WaterWatch can display current streamflow conditions, updated hourly, as well as display daily flood conditions from 2006 to present. The Flood Tracking Chart within WaterWatch relates the current condition to historic flood peaks at individual streamgages for their full period of record. The Flood Table Builder provides detailed hydrologic information across user-defined areas for user-specified dates in a flexible format. WaterWatch is easy to navigate and provides useful data for purpose of flood awareness and response.
