Introduction This document describes the current state of the King County Geographic Information System (KCGIS). It represents the culmination of a collaborative effort by personnel throughout the county to describe the GIS work programs for participating agencies. GIS is critical to the business of King County, as demonstrated in its use for property appraisal, permit review, emergency services, human services, election services, wastewater facilities planning, natural resource and parks management, waste management, public health, road maintenance, transit services, airport management, crime analysis, budget development, policymaking, equity and social justice, legislative support, and growth management. This document provides the details of how GIS supports those and many other business functions. KCGIS was organized into a countywide federated structure in 2002 with an enterprise GIS unit (the King County GIS Center), a single point of executive level accountability for GIS within the county, and governance committees at the technical and oversight level. In 2012 the single point of accountability was transferred from the Director of the Department of Natural Resources and Parks (DNRP) to King County’s Chief Information Officer (CIO). In 2016 GIS governance was refreshed with new charters and new membership criteria for its technical advisory and steering committees. A key mission of KCGIS is to generate a comprehensive work plan (known as the Operations and Maintenance Plan, or O&M Plan). This document is the 2017-2018 edition of that work plan. The first such plan was written in 1997, and subsequent plans have been published nearly every year since. The result is a detailed picture of the King County GIS work program. The document is organized as follows: . Introduction . Organization . Priority Initiatives . Agency Work Plans . Summary Information . KCGIS Center Services . GIS Committees The Organization section details how GIS efforts are organized and governed within the County. The Priority Initiatives section provides information on the activities identified by the GIS governance committees as having significant benefit and high value for collaborative effort. These priorities change yearly, with some new initiatives added and some initiatives carrying over from year to year until their objectives are met. The Agency Work Plans section provides information on the organization, goals and objectives of the agencies as they implement and manage their GIS programs. This section may also include a listing of each agency’s major GIS projects. The Summary Information section provides a listing of each agency’s GIS staffing, a table of GIS software licenses, and information for linking to detailed information about the county’s GIS data. The KCGIS Center Services section summarizes the KCGIS Center’s various roles, functions and offering as the enterprise GIS unit. Information on the two committees that make up the governance structure is contained in the KCGIS Committees section. KCGIS embodies a rich source of data, an exceptional set of innovative applications, and a group of highly skilled and motivated professionals dedicated to serving the public’s needs. This resource is essential to the diverse business functions of King County. Support from the County Executive, management, and staff has provided a solid foundation for KCGIS to continue to grow and provide high- quality, cost-effective, and valued service to the residents of King County. The King County GIS O&M Plan is very much a working document. The information in this document will be used to refine King County GIS through cooperation, coordination, communication and consensus. 1 2017-2018 KCGIS Operations and Maintenance Plan 2 2017-2018 KCGIS Operations and Maintenance Plan 2 Organization The King County Geographic Information System (KCGIS) is a coordinated program of county agencies working in partnership with the KCGIS Center, the county’s provider of enterprise GIS services. The program is aligned to meet the County Executive’s vision for King County’s GIS to be the premier provider of GIS services in the region. King County’s Chief Information Officer (CIO) is the responsible authority designated by the County Executive as accountable for the KCGIS program. Aiding the CIO in governance of the program are GIS steering and technical advisory committees. The KCGIS Center is structured as an internal service fund administered within the home agency of the CIO, the Department of King County Information Technology (KCIT). The enterprise operations provided by the KCGIS Center are funded by nearly all county

  • GIS Migration Plan
    Dane County Land Information Office July 2003 Dane County Enterprise GIS Migration Plan The Dane County Land Information Office is committed to the development of GIS technology to aid in the delivery of information and services to county departments, communities, and the residents of our county. As part of our ongoing efforts to develop a robust and efficient GIS infrastructure, the Land Information Office has begun a project to migrate to a next generation geographic information system. Workplan activities include an upgrade of the technical infrastructure (hardware and software), implementation of new ESRI GIS products, a review and re-modeling of enterprise GIS datasets, workflow analysis and process changes to maximize service delivery and staff efficiencies. This plan summarizes migration activities to-date, as well as outlining a workplan to complete the remaining tasks. ESRI's next generation product line revolves around three primary products: ArcGIS, ArcSDE and ArcIMS. ArcGIS and its related extensions and modules comprise the desktop GIS software suite. ArcSDE supports spatial and tabular database integration. ArcIMS supports the delivery of web-based geographic information and map services. The Dane County ArcGIS migration project includes converting current ArcInfo users to the ArcGIS product. The longer term goal will be to move the viewing, printing, and basic GIS operation users to ArcIMS applications that can be run from a browser or thin client. Current ArcView 3.2 users will be migrated to either thin client ArcIMS applications or ArcGIS 8.x software. All applications will utilize geographic information stored in ArcSDE. Training requirements will be focused on technical staff to build and maintain applications with user friendly tools to minimize intense end user training.

  • Integrated Parametric Urban Design in Grasshopper / Rhinoceros 3D Demonstrated on a Master Plan in Vienna
    Integrated Parametric Urban Design in Grasshopper / Rhinoceros 3D Demonstrated on a Master Plan in Vienna Theresa Fink1, Reinhard Koenig2 1AIT Austrian Institute of Technology 2AIT Austrian Institute of Technology, Bauhaus- Universität Weimar [email protected] [email protected] By 2050 an estimated 70 percent of the world's population will live in megacities with more than 10 million citizens (Renner 2018). This growth calls for new target-oriented, interdisciplinary methods in urban planning and design in cities to meet sustainable development targets. In response, this paper exemplifies an integrated urban design process on a master plan project in Vienna. The objective is to investigate the potential towards a holistic, digital, urban design process aimed at the development of a practical methodology for future designs. The presented urban design process includes analyses and simulation tools within Rhinoceros 3D and its plug-in Grasshopper as quality-enhancing mediums that facilitate the creative approaches in the course of the project. The increase in efficiency and variety of design variants shows a promising future for the practical suitability of this approach.

  • Office of Geographic Information Systems Print This Page
    Office of Geographic Information Systems Print this Page Winter 2008 - Department Spotlight: Dakota County Physical Development Division's Land Management Information System By Kent Tupper As part of a Process Improvement Project for the Physical Development Division, a workgroup examined current processes involved in the management of land acquisition, easements and other associated activities in the Division that are related to real property. Parks, Transportation and the Farmland and Natural Area Program (FNAP) acquire property and easements as a part of their regular business. One of the recommendations the workgroup came up with was to create a centralized database to keep track of all the information pertinent to these acquisitions. Many challenges will have to be overcome in order to make this recommendation a reality. One big challenge is, how do we centralize this information and make it easy to find? The answer: GIS. Using GIS as the interface to access this land-based information makes sense, as it provides the ability to access other, related land information at the same time. This second ability helps with another challenge: how do we standardize the information for all these different types of acquisitions? Yes, there are similarities found in these processes, but there are also many differences. Another challenge is how to most efficiently accomplish the task of collecting all this information and then create the database and user applications needed to enter, retrieve and analyze it. Again, GIS is a big part of the answer. Because the spatial component of GIS data can be linked and related spatially, these different acquisition processes can be developed as components that are integrated through GIS.
