Automatic Vehicle Location ( AVE) <br /> At present, the Traffic Engineering Division maintains approximately twenty vehicles that are <br /> used for various purposes. Staff members have expressed an interest in implementing AVE <br /> technology for its vehicles ; this is a long term need . This will allow the Traffic Engineering <br /> personnel to track the location of all the vehicles of the fleet in order to improve response <br /> time and monitor the location of vehicles in case of an emergency. Implementing AVE can <br /> be very expensive and most likely will be initiated by the Fire/ Rescue/ EMS and Sheriff ' s <br /> Office . However, the Public Works Department needs to ensure that any chosen AVE system <br /> can be effectively integrated into existing operations . <br /> ' GIS Data Layer Inventory and Recommendations <br /> The Public Works Department will rely heavily on the Engineering Division for GIS data <br /> production and maintenance . It is recommended that Public Works personnel work in <br /> conjunction with the GIS Specialist and recommended GIS Director to determine an optimal <br /> strategy for data sharing , map production , and edits to infrastructure and utilities data . Use <br /> of an Intranet GIS application, as well as mobile computers, will provide Public Works <br /> personnel with dynamic mapping and analysis capabilities—it is expected that this will prove <br /> to be mutually beneficial , as it will allow the Public Works Department to produce many of its <br /> own maps and data . <br /> In addition to department-specific layers, the Public Works Department will benefit from <br /> access to several other departmental GIS data layers . If is expected that once all <br /> departmental data is integrated , consolidated , and centrally stored , staff will have access to <br /> all non-classified GIS data layers from other County departments . <br /> Department personnel expressed that access to the following GIS data layers would be <br /> beneficial : <br /> Extract , cleanse , geocode, <br /> and map from address <br /> Address Points database; georeference Automated ; Community Recommended <br /> based on aerial Development/ Planning <br /> photography and GPS field <br /> work <br /> Aerial Photography Fly-over with control points Property Appraiser - GIS Existing <br /> and Mapping <br /> Aerial Photography Fly-over with control points Coastal Engineering Existing <br /> of Beaches Section <br /> Archeological Sites Digitize on screen ; GPS field Parks <br /> g work Maintenance/Conservation Recommended <br /> Armoring Data GPS field work Coastal Engineering Recommended <br /> Section <br /> GPS data collection and Engineering <br /> Bad Bridges integration with existing Division /Surveying and Recommended <br /> information Mapping <br /> Ball Fields Digitize on screen : GPS field Parks Maintenance Recommended <br /> work <br /> Basketball Courts Digitize on screen ; GPS field Parks Maintenance Recommended <br /> work <br /> 92 <br /> GIS Needs Assessment and Implementation Plan Chapter 1 - Departmental GIS Needs Assessment <br />
