Workshop: GIS Basics Presentations

"Building A Working Organizational GIS"
Matt Price, GIS Coordinator, Santa Cruz County

ABSTRACT: A working organizational GIS is a system built on process not personality. Successful GIS implementation depends as much on planning, design, and documentation as it does on GIS technology. GIS causes changes in procedures and operations which requires dealing with organizational issues and multi-disciplinary teams. Building a long term strategy and organizational support for GIS is critical to your programs success. Based on past experience and future challenges I will attempt to provide some insights into building a working organizational GIS.

"Creating A Strong Municipal GIS"
Richard Semple, GIS Coordinator, City of Monterey

ABSTRACT: The City is building a centralized GIS from the ground up, from servers and data to software and users. Its goal is to make a central data repository with high-quality base data, and to serve this data over the citywide Intranet to employees and over the Internet to the public. Links to existing City databases are planned to aid departments in decision making and planning. Investments in hardware and software, training for employees, accurate and complete base data, and strong leadership and direction are required.
