  Innovation in Government Presentations

The projects in this category have demonstrated excellence in local, state, provincial, federal, and national government projects. These projects leverage engineering content and team collaboration, geospatial, civil engineering, and communications network technology, or combinations thereof. The projects in this category also have used innovative and cost-effective techniques to manage land parcels, create cadastral fabric, analyze land uses, and execute land and site development projects.

   

GIS4Mobile—Connect Online Mobile Device

Presenter: Ove Lindhart Hansen, Manager
Tuesday, October 19, 11:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
GeoSite.dk
Faaborg Midtfyn, Denmark

The GIS4Mobile project successfully connected an online mobile GPS-enabled device to MicroStation so that users can send and receive data wirelessly. Using a spatial Web service developed for this project, municipal work crews can use mobile phones to capture and submit photos and attributes from the field. Managers can transmit design file data to indicate locations for inspection from MicroStation to mobile phones.

 

Mapping Using Web Feature Services (WFS)

Presenter: Rune Tvilum, IT Developer
Tuesday, October 19, 11:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Tvilum Landinspektørfirma A/S
Hillerød, Denmark

The Danish surveyor, Tvilum, routinely checks cadastral and construction drawings to ensure that they conform to restrictions. The challenge is retrieving these restrictions from multiple servers, which requires manual retrieval and tracking when the data is updated. The goal of this $100,000 project was to develop a workflow that saves time and ensures that official and up-to-date data is used.
