Presentation Focus Areas Database goal Available data Database issues Database development approaches Enterprise database delivery research and development
3
Database Development Goal To develop a geodatabase solution bringing external databases and spatial databases together in a seamless GIS interface.
4
NPS Available Data (Spatial and Tabular) I&M Amphibians and Reptiles Fish Lepidoptera and Odonata Mammals Vegetation Cultural ASMIS FMSS List of Classified Structures Cultural Landscape Inventory Fire Park Base Data Roads Trails Septic Tanks and Fields Hydrology Wetlands
5
Other Available Data (Spatial) Chesapeake Bay Program Watersheds Geology Bathymetry Conservation Fund Parcels Zoning Virginia Institute of Marine Science Tidal marshes Shorelines Federal Agencies FWS USGS
6
Data Compatibility Issues External databases have complex relationships that must be maintained in the GIS interface. Connection between external databases and spatial data must be seamless to the end user.
7
Data Compatibility Issues External database updates must be displayed real-time in the GIS interface. Should be able to work with the external databases in GIS interface or in the native application, e.g. Microsoft Access.
