Presentation Transcript

  1. Compiling and Developing Emergency Data for Use in Drought Response Aaron Cuthbertson and Christina Boggs

  2. Overview • Background/Intro • Process • Services • Next Steps

  3. Background/Intro Deciding we need a path

  4. Enterprise GIS at DWR We have infrastructure, we don’t have workflows. "Lost in the forest, again" by Des D. Mona Some Rights Reserved - Link

  5. From Foraging to Forging (a path) • Historically, obtaining spatial data at DWR = foraging • Infrastructure now in place for Enterprise GIS data stores • Workflows are theoretical; need to be put into practice

  6. From Foraging to Forging (a path) • REMOVE the ‘A’! Foraging -> Forging • There is no ‘A’ in Enterprise GIS! • (Unless you spell out ‘Geographic Information System’, in which case my metaphor breaks down, so don’t)

  7. Drought Emergency Drives Need "Drought" by Ewan Bellamy Some Rights Reserved - Link

  8. Dataset Background • Locations of water ‘agencies’ needed to understand drought impacts • What do we mean by water agency? • There are a variety of sources • CDPH • USBR (many) • Program-specific (many) • No single data source has everything.

  9. Process Where should the path go?

  10. Design Decision: Better to have stripped down spatial data and robust tabular data.

  11. Process: Tabular WARNING: OVERSIMPLIFICATION AHEAD! • Compiled 9 datasets • Normalized Agency Names

  12. Process: Spatial • Problem: One agency, many polygons • Factors to consider • Solution: Prioritization

  13. Process: Metadata • This was rough. • ArcGIS Desktop / ArcGIS Catalog Metadata Editor • ArcGIS GeoPortal for Server • XML Editing • ArcGIS GeoPortal for Server • ArcGIS Desktop / ArcGIS Catalog Metadata Editor • Built a VBA tool

  14. Services Cutting the path

  15. Services • Mid-stream we’re switching from Oracle to SQL Server. • Internal Enterprise Geodatabase • Drought mandates data sharing • Useful sharing • Spatial + Tabular

  16. Next Steps Walking the path

  17. Next Steps • Keep editing • Eat the dog food • Make other deliverables, stay current. • Urban WaterManagement Plans • Agricultural Water Management Plans • Drought Declarations
