LiDAR for Infrastructure and Terrain Mapping
Monday March 5, 2012 - 3:15 to 4:30 pm
This presentation introduces GIS professionals to the many uses of airborne LiDAR and how to utilize GIS software to extract valuable information from the data as well as combine it with existing geospatial information. Application examples for energy, natural resources, and critical infrastructure mapping will be reviewed to highlight the possibilities and challenges of working with this new & exciting source of highly accurate 3D information.

Mobile GIS at Maui Electric Company

Mobile GIS
Tuesday March 6, 2012 - 1:30 to 2:45 pm
Co-administrators, Jamie Legsay and Carol Kennedy, have been using GIS to document the electrical network at Maui Electric Company. Their current challenge is to make the resulting information available digitally out in the field where it can be further verified and used by field crews. This enables the GIS Administrators to quickly respond to updates from the field, allowing changes made to the electrical network to be reflected in a matter of a few days versus weeks or months. They will discuss the hardware and software they have selected as a mobile solution. A demonstration of the way personnel interact with the technology will highlight the strengths and weakness of their mobile product.

The Honolulu Unified Assessment (HONUA) system - A Situational Awareness Viewer for Emergency Management

Disaster Management and Emergency Response III
Tuesday March 6, 2012 - 1:30 to 2:45 pm
Honolulu faces a number of significant emergency management events each year: floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes, fires - and less frequently, large special events, such as the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. Consequently, a great deal of thought and effort has gone into planning and emergency response preparedness. The City was an early adopter of GIS and has developed a comprehensive GIS for the city to support emergency operations, including the development of critical GIS layers, such as evacuation zones, flood zones, and critical infrastructure locations.
Traditionally, the standard operating procedures for City emergency managers included limited utilization of GIS tools and technology. The City and County of Honolulu Department of Emergency Management (DEM) received a grant for Geospatial Technology Enhancements (GTE) to improve emergency planning, response, and operations to more fully leverage existing City GIS data and systems. The project began in June of 2010. The goal was to install an advanced situational awareness viewer technology that supports the planning activities and emergency response operations that occur in the DEM Emergency Operations Center (EOC). The outcome was the deployment of the Honolulu Unified Assessment (HONUA) system. The system was put to the test during the recent APEC summit.

Benefits of a GIS System supporting Field Automation for Utilities

GIS for Utilities II
Tuesday March 6, 2012 - 3:15 to 4:30 pm
A presentation to discuss the many benefits associated with introducing Geographic Information System (GIS) technology and data into the mobile workforce for Utilities. Rather than reviewing the mobile technology itself this presentation will review some of the work flow advantages while exploring key areas where the Return-on-Investment (ROI) analysis can be developed. Automation combined with enterprise data not only changes the working behavior of the mobile workforce itself but also shifts the data ownership and responsibilities within the organization, creating a more effective enterprise workflow.

CCH-DPP Storm Water Application
Brian Loomis
Hi-Tech Urban Solution, Inc., Honolulu, HI
Engineering and Public Works
Wednesday March 7, 2012 - 10:45 am to noon
The City & County of Honolulu's Storm Water Application is a web-based GIS application that delivers powerful mapping, network tracing, and data access tools to users throughout the City. It is the culmination of a multi-year, collaborative effort by the City's Department of Planning and Permitting to improve the coverage, accuracy, and dissemination of its storm water-related GIS data. The application is designed around NPDES permit obligations the City is required to meet. The application is a completely custom ArcGIS Server Web ADF implementation. It is programmed in ASP.NET/VB.NET, incorporates custom ArcObjects modules, and integrates multiple City SQL data servers. The presentation will discuss (1) the user-interviews and NPDES requirements driving the design process, (2) the application's capabilities and toolsets, (3) a high-level review of its technical architecture, and (4) lessons learned. The presentation will also include a live demo (subject to internet access and technical support).

The Hawai‘i Geospatial Data Repository (HGDR) allows access to scientific datasets for researchers and collaborators from around the state. The HGDR provides an integrative capability to collect, store and manage access to data in support of discovery, manipulation, and visualization. Geospatial information is being delivered through web mapping services and is used to build applications to visualize data from the research agenda. Disparate sensor and field datasets are managed and controlled by researchers who can upload, download, manage, query and perform QA/QC on their data. The Hawaii Geospatial Data Repository is working towards integrating a variety of formats and further developing custom portals for statewide datasets as well as facilitating connections to High Performance Computing for modeling, analysis and visualization.
