• Maintenance and construction data about street improvements - including pothole <br /> patching , and ditch and culvert cleaning can be gathered and maintained . <br /> • Streamline the development review process between departments through data <br /> sharing , thus assuring that plans for development adhere to federal , state , and <br /> regional requirements . <br /> Allow building and safety personnel to review emerging trends while streamlining <br /> business processes and maintaining good service levels by using GIS for permit <br /> assistance and tracking , field inspection , code enforcement , and policy <br /> development for community design standards . <br /> • Public information counter GIS applications let counter personnel rapidly retrieve <br /> accurate information for topics ranging from parcel size to school districts . <br /> Integrating existing CADD files with other spatial and tabular data and maintaining all <br /> data centrally will allow projects to be tracked throughout the development cycle . <br /> • Field inspection and routing , permit assistance and tracking , and code enforcement <br /> can all be improved through the use of GIS . <br /> • Integrate GIS into traditional cadastral and survey mapping with the latest advances <br /> in geodetic control . <br /> • Schedule and route crews for tasks such as mowing , weed control , road repairs , and <br /> tree trimming . <br /> Plan and manage the many tasks required to maintain safe streets . <br /> Department personnel need access to accurate and complete GIS data in order to fully <br /> take advantage of the mapping and analysis capabilities of GIS . GIG recommends the <br /> Public Works Department hire two staff members for full -time Public Works GIS activities (See <br /> Chapter 2 : GIS Organizational Structure and Staffing for more information on this <br /> recommendation ) ;. <br /> An important element in the Indian River County GIS initiative is the streamlining of data flow <br /> between the Public Works Department ( major data generator) and the other departments <br /> ( major custodians of data and information ) . As aforementioned , the Engineering Division will <br /> be the major data generator and resource for the Public Works Department . <br /> Based on this needs assessment, the Public Works Department has several general GIS needs <br /> in addition to various division specific GIS needs . Please refer to the Division Specific Needs <br /> and Duties later in this section for a listing of the GIS needs for each division /section . <br /> General GIS Needs and Duties <br /> Eight overall Public Works GIS needs have been identified . including : <br /> • Geo-Spatial Data Creation , Conversion , and Integration <br /> • Linking Databases and Photographs <br /> • Mapping and Spatial Analysis of Facilities , Roads , Bridges , and Infrastructure Data <br /> • Field Access to Geo-Spatial Data <br /> • GIS-Based Work Order Management <br /> GIS-Based Asset and Infrastructure Management System <br /> • Public Access to Geo-Spatial Public Works Data <br /> Formal Training for Public Works Staff <br /> 69 <br /> GIS Needs Assessment and Implementation Plan Chapter 1 - Departmental GIS Needs Assessment <br />
