Background Information
• Located approximately 22 miles northeast of Sacramento
• Population of approximately 106,000 and growing
• Ranked 2nd out of 16 cities (Sacramento Business Journal)
• 1,500 miles of Environmental Utility Pipeline infrastructure
• Staff of four full-time employees, two part-time
COREUD Administration Building
Initial Process
• AutoCAD MAP used to capture and create environmental utility data
• ArcInfo used for analysis and maintenance of the GIS data
• HANSEN used to manage utility asset attribute data
• AML routines written in ArcInfo to link new GIS data to HANSEN
Initial Process
ArcInfo
AML
DXF
HANSEN
AutoCAD MAP
The Challenge
• CAD and GIS software tools not integrated well with each other
• Import and exporting data led to redundancy and overlapping work
• CAD/GIS workflow process was not very repeatable by staff
• Streamlining process would require additional software and training
How Ideate Helped
• Replicated all asset information tables from HANSEN into CAD
• Created object data tables within AutoCAD MAP to capture attributes
• Automatically populated pipe and manhole attributes (ID, TO, FROM, Layer, etc.) to object data tables
• Already linked to HANSEN from the ID’s created on the CAD side
• Exported to SHP files, and uploaded into ArcSDE

The Results
• EUD staff trained to clean data, less time spent by management
• Accuracy of data was improved by performing QAQC within one location using error checking
• Less time spent on the GIS side maintaining the CAD utility data
• No peripheral 3rd party software or training investments needed
Moving Forward…
• Upgraded to ArcSDE 9.2 as their central GIS database
• Connecting directly to ArcSDE from AutoCAD MAP 3D to access, edit, and maintain utility information
• Utility and infrastructure data accessed online with ArcIMS
• Distributing the data to field personnel using the DWF Viewer
