Project Overview

As part of the Geospatial Technical Support contract, the VESTRA Team was asked to:

Recommend an implementation strategy for DWR’s EGIS solution. Implement the recommendations focusing on:

Esri ArcGIS version 10.1 software.

Best practices used by other large agencies that have successfully implemented robust Enterprise GIS programs.

Provide guidance to DWR regarding GIS application development environment & approach.

Project GoalsKnowledge Transfer

Establish Connectivity

Develop GIS Application Samples

• To support control applications

Sample spatial data into the Staging tier • Viewer and Editor role

• Data Owner account at database level

• Database Authentication (Pending Oracle IDM)

Assign user permissions/privileges

• Map Service

• Feature Service

• Geoprocessing service

• Geocoding service

• PrintingTool service

Sample ArcGIS services

• JavaScript & Silverlight

• Using ArcGIS services

• In Staging Tier

Model Applications

• Automated promotion (Python)

• Includes re-projection

Promote to the Production tier• GeoSystems Monitor

• Informs HP OVO

• Needs additional configuration

Monitoring

Tasks Completed: Data, Services, Applications, Promotion, Monitoring

Tasks Completed: Enterprise GIS Architecture – Initial ArcGIS 10.1 Architecture

Tasks Completed: Enterprise GIS Architecture – Scalable Architecture Options

Looking Forward: Sample Workflows

• Multiple users

• Shared by several staff in different office locations

• VDI Desktop

• ArcGIS for Desktop

• File Geodatabase

• Custom User Interface

• Calls Python scripts

• Utilizes CASGEM data

Looking Forward: Sample Workflows - Groundwater Change in Storage GIS

Promote Spatial Data to Production Tool• Promote feature classes to Production Tier• Auto re-project to Web Mercator• User determines which feature classes to promote• Log level selection• Should be monitored

Current Status: Sample Python Automation – Promote Spatial Data to Production

Promote Spatial Data to Production - Exclusions Tool• Select feature classes to exclude from promotion to the production tier• Define a Working Directory

Current Status: Sample Python Automation – Promote Spatial Data to Production

EGIS Architecture: Hands on ArcGIS 10.1 installation and configuration. Detailed documentation of install and configuration process specific to DWR ArcGIS 10.1

environment. Sample Workflow Technical Memorandum

o Leveraging file geodatabase in EGIS. With VDI With non-VDI remote offices

o Extending use of DataSpace. Incorporating Enterprise and Program data sources (including remote offices) into the EGIS workflow.

o Strategy for Spatially Enabled Application Integration into EGIS Architecture.

Current Status: Transfer knowledge to DWR development staff
