GeoAnalytics Retained By The City of Bellevue for GIS Address and Parcel Maintenance Development Services and Support
GeoAnalytics has been retained by the City of Bellevue, Washington to provide GIS Address and Parcel maintenance development services and support.
GeoAnalytics recently completed phase one of the project by conducting onsite meetings to gain an understanding of project requirements and priorities. Outcomes included a technology plan describing the development platform and architecture for the GIS components, scope of work, schedule, and project backlog for the agile (scrum) project.
The second phase of the project involves the design, construction, and deployment of the GIS tools that were identified in the backlog. These tools will provide the City with the means to more effectively maintain and manage spatial-based land records information. The objective of these tools is to provide more accessible and better information for stakeholders, better currency of information through enhanced and automated data management workflows, and improved data accuracy and integrity.
GeoAnalytics Provides NAVTEQ with Traffic Data Visualization Services
GeoAnalytics recently provided traffic source data visualization services to NAVTEQ to support internal company marketing and business planning initiatives.
NAVTEQ collects a large volume of road sensor, incident, and GPS location data from across the world on a daily basis to support a growing array of traffic-based consumer and business solutions. GeoAnalytics created a series of temporal data animations to spatially visualize the current as well as future geographic extent and volume of traffic location data being sourced by NAVTEQ.
The spatial animations will be used as a communication and marketing tool to demonstrate NAVTEQ's growing presence and data resources in the global traffic intelligence products market.
GeoAnalytics Implements Rolta's OnPoint For Dane County, WI
GeoAnalytics recently implemented Rolta's OnPoint Web Mapping Solution for Dane County, Wisconsin.
Dane County will use OnPoint as the next evolution of their Internet and Intranet web mapping solutions. The software provides a web-based, geospatially integrated view of critical information and work processes for the internal and external users at Dane County. OnPoint replaces PV Web 2.0 as both the internal and the public facing map service for their DCiMap web-mapping service.
The implementation includes integration to the County's Access Dane application as well as utilization of numerous enterprise database layers. Dane County will subsequently deploy a public interface and build the application to leverage the County's implementation of ArcSDE 9.3. "Dane County is excited to be continuing the relation with Geo-Analytics with the implementation of the OnPoint application. This will allow us to provide a better service to the citizens of Dane County and beyond," said Fred Iausly, Sr. GIS Analyst for Dane County.
GeoAnalytics Enhances FutureView for the Chicago Metropolitan Agency of Planning
GeoAnalytics has been retained by the Chicago Metropolitan Agency of Planning (CMAP) to enhance "FutureView" - its GIS-Based Local Forecast Data Collection Application.
FutureView is used by CMAP personnel to facilitate the gathering, visualization, and impact analysis of future land use decisions by local government officials. Collected information supports regional comprehensive plan development and the formulation of population, household, and employment projections used in CMAP's innovative GO TO 2040 plan. CMAP's planning region encompasses seven counties in northeastern Illinois. See www.cmap.illinois.gov. and www.goto2040.org for more information.
GeoAnalytics is upgrading the current FutureView application to be compatible with latest releases of Placeways, LLC's CommunityViz Scenario 360 product and ESRI's ArcGIS Desktop technology. In addition, specific functionality is being enhanced to improve performance and usability. This will further facilitate CMAP discussions with local government officials regarding their expectations of land use, population, households, and employment for 2040.
GeoAnalytics Implements Rolta's OnPoint and ESRI's ArcGIS Version 9.3 Geodatabase For Vilas County, WI
GeoAnalytics today announced it recently implemented Rolta's OnPoint Web Mapping Solution along with ArcGIS Version 9.3 Geodatabase for Vilas County, Wisconsin.
Vilas County will use OnPoint as the next evolution of their Internet and Intranet Web mapping solutions. OnPoint provides a Web-based, geospatially integrated view of critical information and work processes for the internal and external users at the County. In addition, Vilas County will create an ArcSDE 9.3 environment and move its GIS data into the Geodatabase for use with ArcGIS Server 9.3 and OnPoint.
"The Vilas County Land Information/Mapping and Surveyor Departments have been creating cadastral base map datasets to be used to provide a Web based mapping service for approximately 10 years," said Barb Gibson, Vilas County GIS Coordinator. "Such data includes parcel lines, roads, waterbodies, tax data, aerial photography, plat, and survey information. Vilas County is a large, predominantly rural county in northern Wisconsin. Using this Web service, users will be able to view land data from the comfort of their own home or office without the time and expense of traveling to the courthouse to obtain the desired information. The County is anxious to launch this service on the Internet."

GeoAnalytics to Complete Orange County, FL Public Safety System Address and GIS Data Integration Study
GeoAnalytics today announced it has been retained by Orange County, Florida to investigate the street address and related spatial information needs of its upgraded Fire Rescue Dispatch System and new 9-1-1 Call System.
The Orange County Department of Growth Management, in its capacity as manager of Countywide Geographic Information System (GIS), provides structured GIS data to County departments in support of their core business functions. This is accomplished in part through a Central Addressing System and Spatial Data Repository (CAS/CSDR) developed by GeoAnalytics for the County. The CAS/CSDR is the first phase of a comprehensive technology initiative known as ALADIN (Addressing, Land and Development Information Network), which centralizes land development information countywide.
The new County public safety information systems, scheduled for roll-out in 2009, will need to interface with the County CAS/CSDR in order to access important location-based street, address, jurisdiction, and associated basemap data. This interface will ensure that fire rescue and 9-1-1 response is driven by current, complete, and accurate GIS information including situs level addresses. The GeoAnalytics' study will involve a review of public safety business needs and GIS data requirements as well as an analysis of technical options for integrating the upgraded Fire Rescue Tiburon Dispatch System and new Positron 9-1-1 Call System with the County CAS/CSDR environment.
GeoAnalytics Completes GIS-Based FutureView Application for the Chicago Metropolitan Agency For Planning
GeoAnalytics today announced it has completed a GIS-Based Local Forecast Data Collection Application called FutureView for the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP).
FutureView is a next-generation, field-based data collection application being used by CMAP personnel to facilitate the gathering, visualization, and impact analysis of future land use decisions by local government officials.
