The GIS Director will regulate the use of GPS resources and provide ad hoc assistance as needed by each department . Departments that indicated needs for additional GPS receivers include Community Development , General Services , Public Works , and the Sheriff ' s Office . In addition , Indian River County will eventually need to acquire additional GPS receivers for use in vehicles and field equipment. The utilization of these units will vary according to department ( as with Community Development and the Emergency Services Department) . It is recommended that departments utilize these GPS receivers to their full capability by implementing several tracking applications, such as Automatic Vehicle Location ( AVL) tracking . Use of AVL is especially valuable for the facilitation of emergency response management typically addressed by Public Safety departments . Field -mounted GPS receivers will need to be configured and linked , as needed , to Indian River County computing resources, including computer systems ( hand-held computers , notebook/tablet computers , workstations , and servers ) , networks , and enterprise-wide databases . It is recommended that two (2 ) GPS receivers should be procured in Year 2; two (2) additional GPS receivers should be procured in Year 3 . sI Output Devices <� Printers It is important that the County ' s GIS users have the means to print maps and documentation generated from these applications . Every GIS user should have access to a high-resolution color printer, to print 8"xl 1 " or 8 "x14" maps . In the short-term , each GIS user should have access to at least one networked color printer, even if it is not in their immediate work space . 3-b GIS Needs Assessment and Implementation Plan Chapter 3 - Short - Term and Long - Term Strategies
