  The City of Bozeman Geographical Information System

Past, Present & Future


Introduction of Technology ~ 2000 Started w/ Software Grants and General Funds - Budget<$50k/yr Data Collection Completed In-House Coordination Between Many Entities Useful Applications Creative Solutions – 7 years and counting….

  Past, Present & Future

GIS – Defined


*A great way of connecting databases and systems to access information across all lines. *A great way to inventory and report any asset imaginable. *Access to anything, anywhere, anytime.

  GIS – Defined

Layers - Data


*CAD only has layers – no data! *Real Power of GIS *Connect to just about everything

  Layers - Data

Multiple Databases


*Any Database *Flexible

  Multiple Databases

Equals Maps, Inventory & Analysis


*Equals endless possibilities

  Equals Maps, Inventory & Analysis

Coordination (the Nature of GIS)


*Sharing between multiple agencies! *Effective and efficient use of resources. *Easy to maintain - metadata. *Consistency and currency of data is important. *Support for all departments, all needs.

  Coordination (the Nature of GIS)

Growth


Access to accurate, up-to-date information is more vital than ever before.

  Growth

Tools


Completed Maps (.PDF) Raw GIS Data & Metadata Interactive Mapping Laserfiche Employee/Public Access

  Tools

Laserfiche


*Currently 25,000 documents consisting of over 90,000 ‘images’. *Commission heavily involved – other departments soon. *Agenda Manager – Digital Packets

  Laserfiche

Future Resources


More Integration w/ Laserfiche Connection w/ AS400 (LookingGlass) Asset Management Work Orders Maintenance History Field Information
