• Water Production <br />Information that the Water Production Division will require is soon to be <br />available with a modem connection to the host. They will be able to monitor the <br />progress of Master Plan line construction, the maintenance of existing water mains, <br />and corresponding labor costs. (Water Production slide) <br />• Wastewater <br />With access to the sewer model now complete, the Wastewater Division is <br />able to monitor associated labor and material costs in the maintenance of utility <br />sewer mains, valves, manholes, and liftstations. Using the software available on the <br />host computer will bring graphics to their PC workstation. This capability <br />enhances the productivity and ability to save time and labor in many areas. <br />(Wastewater slide) <br />CHART SHOWING PERCENT OF DIVISION USE. <br />G1SAMS Division Utilization <br />Utility Maintenani <br />Water Production <br />Wastewater <br />io <br />0 /o 50% 100% <br />Public accessibility. <br />Our utility has installed a large percentage of its facilities in the past five years <br />and currently provides water and sewer service to the population that have access <br />to these utilities. Indian River County. Engineers, contractors, developers, and Re- <br />altors have a continuous requirement for utility location information. The water <br />and wastewater facilities have now become more obtainable with this GIS/LMS <br />data and arranging for a customer workstation for this purpose is in future plans. <br />Research is also being done to obtain information in the creation of a utility web <br />page to access our valuable utility information <br />Ability to expand. <br />When directing our thoughts and ideas, we concluded that our first priority was <br />to expand our computer system to its maximum capabilities. We expanded the <br />systems memory from 64 mb to 192 mb of memory. The hard drives, which now <br />include 6-2.0 gb hard drives will soon include two additional drives with the <br />upgrading of the host computer in mid-February. With this accomplished, future <br />connections will not slow down the system. The Department of Utility Services is <br />always looking ahead to the latest technology, but is sometimes limited by budget <br />restraints. <br />INTEGRATION & INTEGRITY <br />Populating the GIS database with items necessary for linking the IMS database <br />will result in the integration between the GIS and IMS databases. As a conse- <br />quence, the GIS and IMS databases, although physically separate, will logically <br />function as one database. <br />(GIS/IMS database slide) <br />21 <br />FEBRUARY 3, 1997 KOK IWO FACE 447 <br />L_ <br />
