Presentation by James Meyer, GISP September 22, 2016 Achieving Strategic Goals Using Data Supply Chains at Arizona DOT Building a Sustainable Process Presentation by James Meyer, GISP September 22, 2016

Mission Statement: To facilitate a statewide program that promotes collaboration on Roadway data, improves its quality and quantity, directly support E911, and supports the needs of the State of Arizona Goals: Provide an easy to use transactional data update tool through AZGEO Provide feedback and facilitated communication that addresses data quality Build on existing workflows as to not create a new workflow and reduce the number of steps (actions) that are required now Produce a statewide address data layer that is build from the combined E911 data providers for a seamless road network with addressing. Collaborate with all statewide partners to align goals and objectives whenever possible. Wherever possible expand the State business capacity; i.e. a Statewide Geocoder

Data Collection: Supply Chain Patterns Identified Local governments supply geospatial road data to the DOT A third party (non-DOT, and potentially non-government) creates statewide data and supplies it to the DOT A hybrid approach exists, whereby the state gathers as much as possible from a non-DOT aggregator (e.g., a regional agency or state clearinghouse) and then obtains the rest from locals. The DOT compiles all the data itself Source: FHWA Geospatial Representation Study - 2014 As we interviewed agencies about local road data collection, the various supply chain patterns began to emerge, and it became clear that understanding these patterns was a key part of understanding the collection and compilation of all roads data…

Principled Approach Principles for selecting the best data supply chain pattern Minimal impact to local data providers Build on existing work activities Demonstrate a return on investment Build trust

Supply Chain Pattern #1 State DOT County City MPO Federal Land Agency Private Land Owner Local governments supply geospatial road data to the DOT Benefits Challenges Opportunities Getting data directly from those that know it best leads to highest quality NOTE: Federal roads to be sourced directly by FHWA in the future, and made available to State DOTs State DOT is responsible for data compilation and edge-matching Difficult to maintain and update Can be challenging working with larger cities/counties Automate previously manual efforts Sustainability Diversified knowledge pool Benefit from unfunded mandates The DOT collects and assembles (conflates) centerline data from multiple organizations having jurisdictional responsibility over some set of roads and who independently manage local geospatial data resources. Interoperability can be an issue, either dealt with by the locals (i.e. by meeting state requirements) or by the DOT (post-collection as-needed data manipulation and standardization)
