GIS Support from IU (UITS & Indiana Geological Survey)

• Enhance the quality of geospatial technology research, instruction and administration at Indiana University

• Maintain enterprise geodatabase and map publishing services for IU and the general public

• Serve as liaisons between IU and data partners to promote the needs of both IU and the residents of Indiana

• GIS Resources at IU http://www.indiana.edu/~gis/

• Indiana Geological Survey – first GIS services from IU

9

ISDP (Indiana Spatial Data Portal) Today

• Archives large geospatial datasets– Provides data integrity (data QC)– Valuable historical record for Indiana

• Supports IndianaMap Project– Enterprise Oracle geodatabase (ArcSDE)

• 17 TeraBytes of data stored!!!!!

IndianaMap

Supports hundreds of local, regional and statewide projects each year

34:1 ROI

14

How is INMAP used?

• Application connections

• Mapping Publishing Services

15

What’s Coming Next

• At least 48 counties committed to share their data with IndianaMap via IDHS grants

• Serves multi-agency, multi-jurisdictional needs to share addresses and centerlines

• Everyone benefits

16

Opportunities and Challenges - General

• Computer hardware and data storage more affordable

• Internet a computing platform

• System complexity increasing

Mainframe Minicomputer Workstation PC MobileDevices

Whatever the future holds, GIS ought to have a strong role

• Indiana would benefit from funding for a sustainable and robust GIS service– New orthophotography– Maintain and manage IndianaMap– Support statewide GIS coordination and

education– Planning, emergency preparedness/response

• Is the Stimulus Plan an opportunity for GIS technology to serve society and our State?

21

Next Statewide Ortho Project?

• IGIC Workgroup

• Discussing statewide 6 inch, 4 band

• One quarter of state/year on repeating basis

• How much data? – 3 band RGB 2.7 x larger than 2005 geotiffs– 12.3 TB total RGB/4 years 3.1+ TB/year– 16.4 TB total RGB+IR/4 years 4.1+ TB/year

22

Challenges for Indiana/Nation/Technology

• Common good and local needs• Build GIS infrastructure with physical

infrastructure• Mobile GIS (your cell phone as a GPS)• Temporal GIS• Balancing public good, privacy, utility• We’re all downstream of someplace… knowing

what’s going on upstream can help!
