    Slide 1:The present state, and the future, of GIS/GPS

    Prepared for Engineering 105 by Larry Theller November 17, 2006

    Three Driving forces: Complex, behavior-oriented data models High resolution images -------- Precise location information Soil map from a relational database over imagery

    Slide 3:What is a geodatabase

    Single container for spatial and tabular data (within a RDBMS table space) Currently uses MS access, Oracle, DB2, SQLserver file formats Relationships and behaviors are included!

    Slide 4:Contents and behaviors!

    Geodatabase can support relational interconnections. Behaviors: flow direction on a network – upstream/downstream Topological relationships Support for complex networks. Other object-oriented features (valves, pumps, transmitters, etc.)

    Slide 5:Geodatabase-driven data layers

    SSURGO soils NHD – National Hydrography Dataset Geodatabase-friendly layers: IDNR Floodzones built on NHD Impaired waters built on NHD Templates for many others: www.esri.com

    Slide 6:Geodatabase Templates

    • Census and Administrative Boundaries (applied to U.S. Census geography) • Topographic basemaps for 1:24,000-scale maps • Hydrography (NHD surface and groundwater) • Streets and comprehensive address information • Transportation (to support linear referencing, navigation, addressing, and cartography) • Public Land Survey System (PLSS) (to support a national database of the legal survey fabric) • Parcels (to support both U.S. and worldwide systems) • Water and wastewater utilities.

    Spatial layers Declared relationships Tabular data

    Slide 8:MS Access™ Database for Soil

    Very powerful report generator Relational information is preserved Metadata is included Attribute levels: for soil series, soil component, map unit Tables and queries can be accessed

    Open the database file in MS Access and get this report generator.

    Slide 11:Sample Report in Access

    Not tied to spatial data by NRCS, however

    Slide 12:Up to 50 Reports generated by macro

    User can “join” tables to spatial data. Table from metadata ( .pdf)

    Slide 14:National Hydrography Dataset

    Slide 15:NHD description

    The National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is a comprehensive spatial dataset that contains surface water features such as lakes, ponds, streams, rivers, springs and wells. Within the NHD, surface water features are combined to form "reaches," which provide the framework for linking water-related data to the NHD surface water drainage network. These linkages enable the analysis and display of these water-related data in upstream and downstream order. The stream reaches are networks that support the addition of local “events” such as a dam, gage or sample point.

    The NHD has flowlines, polygons and point features. Water body Network flow Point features Add an “Event” to the network and trace all downstream segments with a simple command.

    Rich new datasets: A digital elevation model in eastern Wisconsin High-resolution images

    Slide 21:High-resolution images

    3D Models driven by rich data sources

    Slide 26:Personal Location Services

    Download topomaps and landmarks to a handheld GPS

    Slide 28:For others, jog across the web…

    A runner logs 10 miles in Central Park, from /run

    Slide 29:Location Services: The geo fence

    You know when a vehicle passes into or out of a zone. Monitor deliveries, service staff, employees, felons, ambulances, pizza delivery guy.. http://gis2.esri.com/showcase/showcase.cfm http://tuxedo.esri.com/geofence/ Other industrial users: Pdf files handouts of ESRI business partners.

    Slide 30:Location Services:

    Parents use GPS to track their kids cars: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5725196 "For example, says Alltrack's Mark Allbaugh, when a teen driver is speeding, parents can remotely flash the car's light or honk the horn, until the teen slows down. "

    Slide 31:Location Services:

    Parents use GPS to track their kids PHONES: "Disney Mobile will roll out a family plan of cell phones that offer features fashioned for the 11- to 15-year-old set, coupled with a generous helping of parental controls… Family Locator -- a tool that pinpoints the phone's position using GPS ... allows a parent to get the location of his or her child's handset by entering a self-selected PIN into a Web site or a phone.
