Public Works Geodatabase

Program:  Geographic information systems (GIS) provide a powerful alternative to the paper maps many cities have of the public works infrastructure. Unlike paper maps, data stored in GIS can be easily edited to reflect infrastructure modifications or expansion. This program will provide two services. First, paper maps of public works will be digitized and incorporated into a geodatabase. Second, personnel who work with public works data will be trained in the use of a GIS and geodatabase.

Audience: City governments and public works providers

Sponsor/Provider: Department of Community and Regional Planning

Estimated Fee: $2,000 to $15,000 fee varies depending on scope of services

Location: This program is available statewide. Assessments take place at the city level.

Availability: Immediately

Delivery Schedule: 2 to 6 months depending on the size of the city and the public works infrastructure being digitized.
