• “Aviation GIS provides the foundation for pconnecting the airports, FAA, and statewide aviation organizations by creating a central database for storing survey chartingdatabase for storing survey, charting, analysis, and planning data.”

Lessons LearnedLessons LearnedProject & Process DocumentationProject & Process Documentation

1. Importance of standards – particularly when p p yintegration is envisioned.

– Ie: Lots of aerials – noise contours, looking at valve coversvalve covers

2. Only build what you plan on maintaining –d d h d ill b dunderstand how data will be used.

• Standardize on Data Presentation• No ready-made symbols for internal assets

Lessons LearnedLessons LearnedData DevelopmentData Development

1. Determine accuracy requirements by y q ydeveloping an understanding of how data will be utilized….classify the level of effort

2. Data development is not an either/or proposition – beg, borrow, steal, horse tradeproposition beg, borrow, steal, horse trade

3. Factor in visualization requirements prior to data development (pilots work best)
