Abstract
 Making GIS Feasible for a Small Wastewater District Track: Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater Author(s): Chuck Duffy, Russell Mercer Rancho Santa Fe Community Services District (RSFCSD) is a small municipal wastewater district located in Southern California. It serves approximately 1,250 customers, with a system of 50 miles of sewer lines and 7 pump stations. Over the past 5 years, RSFCSD has converted its AutoCAD-based system map to a GIS-based format. The data is stored in a Geodatabase and accessed through an ArcReader interface. This paper will give an overview of the conversion process, from AutoCAD format to a geodatabase, including lessons learned and challenges encountered. Some key points that will be discussed are the specific uses of the GIS for converting their map atlas to a digital form and how to provide District staff with querying capabilities of their facilities in a simple easily maintained interface. Finally, it will highlight the future uses of the GIS, focusing mainly on streamlining operations and maintenance and adding additional data layers.
