Start by saying that you want to use this diagram to give some context to todays presentation…As GIS professionals, we are experts on geographic data production and management, cartographyWe take pride in our profession, we recognize the power of GIS technology, but…Our challenge is getting keeping up with expectations created by consumer technology.More so than before, your customers now expect you to publish your work as an intelligent map accessible in a web browser or mobile deviceArcGIS online is how the GIS professional delivers an intelligent map to employees in our organization, or to the public.
“Describing ArcGIS Online is nice, but it helps to see it. In the next few minutes, I’ll show you a visual tour of ArcGIS Online. And then we’ll learn how Berkeley County is putting these concepts into practice today.”The scenario we’ll illustrate today is a situation where the local authorities need to communicate official detours around a series of closed railroad crossings.“The first step is searching-for, and adding the necessary content to our map. These services can be hosted on our local server using ArcGIS Server, or if necessary, directly from the cloud in ArcGIS Online as a hosted feature service”“Now I’ll save this intelligent map, then use the “share as” tool to choose how users will use it” “In a moment, my co-presenter Gary Wine show us how this map will look to end users, based on choosing the option to embed this map into an existing web page.”So without further delay, I’d like to introduce your colleague Gary Wine, IT Director of Berkeley Co. to talk to us about the evolving role of GIS right here in Berkeley Co…
Participation in regional IT organizationsMission, philosophy of Berkeley Co. IT Dept.Gary’s principles for effective IT leadershipEmbracing the mission of public serviceAligning IT with the key government and community needsPROACTIVELY recognizing the need, opportunity to support the 2012 general election
Recognized the value of having a simple mapping tool to help people know where to voteEngaged Esri to evaluate the optionsDecided to utilize ArcGIS for Local Gov’tPrebuilt application + data modelBring your own dataMade upgrades to our ArcGIS technology stackConfigured and deployed the Polling Place locator app with our own local, authoritative data
Why was this the right move?Efficiency improvements expected, or already-seenEmphasize the “timely and relevant” competencies of a good mapPositive feedback from County CouncilWe want to continue our momentumWe’re planning how we’ll use ArcGIS Online in Berkely Co., that’s what we saw Jake demo for us… and here’s an example of what it lets us do, with very little time and effort, thus delivering maps in a timely and relevant wayOther use cases: Public Safety notification, being the authoritative source for informing the public
Recognize that GIS has become a strategic technology in the gov’t marketplaceInvaluable decision making and communication toolBusiness-level tool for sound decisions in regard to finances, public safteyBenefit of GIS being incorporated into IT – better vantage point to support the business, better understanding of resource requirementsArcGIS for Local Government = More results in less time and effort ArcGIS Online = even more results with even less time and effortAGOL lets us deliver services in a matter of minute, rather than weeksMy recommendation to you all: recognize that GIS is more than simple mapping, realize GIS today is a key decision support tool for all aspects of governance – financial decisions, public safety outreach, elections, etc.… go talk to someone new and think of a new way of applying GIS to an area of your organizations business
