Presentation Transcript

  1. Overview • Background • DOT Software • Tools - ArcMap • RIMS Extension • DOT Utilities • Focused Applications – ArcIMS and Visual Basic • Traffic Information Map • Road Conditions Map • Road Construction Map • Design Cover Sheet • Right-of-Way Plats

  2. How did I get into GIS?? • No one else in IT wanted the job • Learned OTJ • Started from the programming side • Patient Managers • Patient Users • Helpful Colleagues with a LOT of knowledge • Rod Bassler (Master Yoda) - SWC • Gerald Kautzman – NDDOT • GISTC Members

  3. DOT Software • ArcMap 9.0 - 104 Installations • 7 Concurrent ArcInfo • 13 Concurrent ArcView • ArcView 3.3 - 46 Installations • Windows 2000 Server • ArcSDE 9.0 • SQL Server 2000 • ArcIMS 9.0 • IIS 5.0 - Tomcat Jakarta • Development Languages • VBA • VB 6.0 • VB.Net • ASP

  4. What’s the POINT? Using small applications to integrate GIS into everyday workflows

  5. ArcMap Tools • DOT Utilities Tool • Roadway Inventory Management System (RIMS) Tool

  6. DOT Utilities Tool - ArcMap • “Zoom To” common features • Longitude Latitude • XY • Section Township Range • Highway - Mile Point • City • County • Add XY text to mouse click

  7. DOT Utilities – Built In Help

  8. Zoom To - Section

  9. Zoom To Highway – Reference Point

  10. Zoom To - Cities

  11. DOT Utilities – XY Callout

  12. RIMS Tool - ArcMap • Adds commonly used spatial data sets • Route Events • XY Events • Symbolizes each category of features • Back End Info • Read only tables on SDE • Data transferred from DB2, Oracle, and Access • One stop for table data

  13. Highways By District By Section Highway Components Highway Projects Billboards Bridges Centerline Pipes Curves – Vertical Curves - Horizontal Fences Functional Class of Road Guardrails Inslope Ratio Lights Remarks Right-of-Way Rumble Strips Signs Speed Zones RIMS Data

  14. Select either State-wide or District

  15. Select event data

  16. Add Signs for District 8 - Fargo

  17. RIMS Signs for Roads and Ramps

  18. Focused Applications • Traffic Information Map • Road Conditions Map • Construction Map • Design Cover Sheet • Right-of-Way Plats

  19. Transportation Information Map

  20. Transportation Information Map • Traffic counts by class of vehicle • Volume traffic counts • Turning movements • Breakpoint counts • Portable count locations • Automated traffic counter locations • Functional Classes

  21. Transportation Information Map • Benefits • 10-40 hits per day • 50% reduction in current count requests • 1-2 hours per day saved in researching counts • Internal requests reduced close to 0 • Traffic information in one place • Next Step • Move to external web site

  22. Road Conditions Map

  23. Detailed print out Web Cameras

  24. Road Conditions Map Application • Access Application feeds ND Hub • Downloads event table from legacy Road Report application • Downloads reference point table (contains route measures) from DB2 • Calculates from and to route measures for each event. If it can’t find a reference point, it walks the reference point table 3 miles forward and backward to find a close reference point. • Creates an event layer in memory and uploads it as a feature class to the Hub • ArcMap feature classes draw considerably faster than route events • Sends an ArcXML file to create a static maps • Sends link to ASP page to update the “Date” text file • Opens web page for user to verify everything uploaded correctly

  25. Road Conditions Map • Benefits • Errors eliminated - Maps exactly the same each upload • Information is more timely • 5 minutes reduction in preparation time • October 5th and 6th Hits • Interactive Map • 5,450 • Static Maps • 654,665 (Please Note: Pages refresh every 60 seconds)

  26. Road Construction Map

  27. Road Construction Map Application • Access Application feeds ND Hub • Downloads road construction event table from Construction Automated Records System (CARS) • Creates an event layer in memory and uploads it as a feature class to the Hub • ArcMap feature classes draw considerably faster than route events • Sends an ArcXML file to ArcIMS. Parses the response to build an image map and map tip text files • Uploads text files • Sends an ArcXML file to create a static maps • Sends link to ASP page to update the “Date” text file • Opens web page for user to verify everything uploaded correctly

  28. Road Construction Map • Benefits • 4 minutes versus 2 hours of preparation time • Maps are updated multiple times per day instead 3 times per week • Maps created dynamically with field data • Multiple maps can be created depending on the density of road construction projects • Paper maps are no longer sent out

  29. Design Cover Sheet

  30. Scale Tool – Design Cover Sheet • Used to zoom to specified scale.

  31. Export Map – Design Cover Sheet • Creates any of following files for download • PDF, JPEG, PNG8, TIFF, etc • Files can be imported into other documents such as Microstation or Word • Restricted Haul (county) roads is a layer in this application

  32. Design Cover Sheets • Benefits • 5 minutes versus 30 minutes of preparation time • County haul roads electronically available • These used to be maintained with tape on paper maps • Maps are more consistent • External web site – Available to contractors

  33. Right-of-Way Plats

  34. Plats available for that section

  35. Scanned Right-of-Way Plats

  36. Right-of-Way Plats • Benefits • 4 hours saved per day per ROW designer • 2 hours per project for Flight planner • Scanned plats are imported into Microstation • Anyone within the DOT can view them without contacting ROW • Sending scanned plats to consultants • Next Step • Move to external web site
