FME: The Catalyst for a Multi- Participant Hazardous Spills Database for Peel Region Doug Seaborn Project Lead: Enterprise GIS Development & Deployment
SDSS - Spills Decision Support System ~ 500 hazardous spills every year “Spills” can be: Fuel, auto liquids Industrial waste Hazardous cargo Biological hazards Sewer overflows Flooding Region of Peel - SDSS
About Peel Region Area: 1,250 sq km Population: 1.3 million Dwellings: 360,000 Known “haz mat” sites: 20,000 Buried Infrastructure: 85% of area 3 local governments 2 conservation agencies Tiered service responsibilities
SDSS - User Community First Responders: Peel Region Environmental Protection Unit Fire & Police Conservation System Region-wide database [60+ themes] Mobile field devices, web enabled Oracle Spatial, 7 x 24
Spills Tracing
SDSS Functionality Support Inventory of known hazmat sites and spills [ ] through ROP Record Observed Spills Predict upstream source [s] for investigation Record & Predict downstream flows and highest risk outflows/consequences Subsurface hazmat flow prediction [gravity - storm and sanitary sewer] Field-usable, field accessible [web, gps enabled notebooks]
Data Themes Spills-Specific Themes Licensed hazardous material sites, inspection records Observed spills: 10 years Fresh water supply [lakes, aquifers, pump stations, wells, permits] Surface flow Rivers, creeks, ditches, culverts Surface Elevation & Permeability Model Catch Basins, Inlets, Outflows Sub-surface flow 100,000+ underground pipes [storm and sanitary] Reference Themes Street Road Network with Address points Property & Infrastructure Aerial Imagery Environmental & Recreational areas High risk infrastructure [stations, schools hospitals airports,…]
Environmental Themes Source water protection areas Aquifers & wells Dams, flow control structures Flood zones Rivers, streams, creeks Watershed and sewer shed boundary models Conservation areas Environmentally sensitive areas
The FME Challenge Geo data “contributors” 7 Vector data: MicroStation, GeoMedia, ESRI Raster data: MrSID, ECW Office [MS] data: 12,000 engineering drawings [pdf], Word, Excel, Access C3Q: Coverage, Currency, Consistency, Quality !!
Some ETL Tasks 1.Storm Sewer [CAD to Oracle Spatial ] 2.Water System [GeoMedia to Oracle ] 3.Sanitary Sewer [SQL Server to Oracle] 4.Storm Ponds [Word -> Oracle] 5.Spills and Licensed Sites [Access to Oracle]
Storm Sewer [CAD to Oracle Spatial ] Scope City of Mississauga ~ 100,000 graphic objects in MicroStation [1997] Connect and attribute pipes Connect and attribute inflow points [surface elevations] Connect and attribute outflows [surface elevations] Build network model [inflow outflow] mostly done using FME
