Why Convert to GIS…..**Attribute Data**Manage Existing & Plan Future InfrastructureStreamline Information Among Employees in

Day to Day Operations (Field Use)View and Manipulate Multiple Maps at the

Same TimeData AnalysisEmergency Preparedness

Step 1 – Data AcquisitionConvert from AutoCAD (mapexport)

Other Sources

Step 2 – Geodatabase (Critical) File Geodatabase System -

No file size limit (Rasters)

Coordinate System – NAD 1983 State Plane Utah North FIPS 4301 Feet

Datasets – Features of Similar Type

Feature classes - Points, Lines, Polygons

Raster Data – Raster Datasets, USGS, DEM (Digital Elevation Models)

Step 3 - Basemap In every GIS project there are many layers that serve as

the basemap. These layers depict background reference information such as landforms, roads, landmarks, and political boundaries, etc., onto which other thematic information is placed.

Step 4 - Addressing (Requires Allot of Time)

Road and Address Data - Know your data

Create the Address Locator or Locators

Geocode Addresses

Original Parcel Dataset had over 2800 Addresses.Cleaned Dataset has approx. 1900 Addresses

Found Discrepancies in the Street Datasets

Step 5 - Zoning Map Creation

One of the Most Widely Used Maps by the City (Accuracy) Used AutoCAD RGB Color Values to create a Zoning Layer File Zoning Domains – Data Integrity and Editing Efficiency Transparency (Better than AutoCAD)

Onward and Upward…….

Adjust Street Geocoding Data

Convert Remaining General Plan Maps to GIS

Survey Infrastructure and Map in GIS

Integrate GIS system into Day to day operations

Maintain up-to-date GIS system
