Abstract


Integrated Real-Time GPS/GIS Field Data Collection and ArcIMS Application
Track: Ocean, Coastal, and Marine Resources
Author(s): Judd Muskat, James C. Grummon

In December 2000, the California Department of Fish and Game (DFG) participated in a U.S. Coast Guard-sponsored oil spill cleanup exercise along with Chevron. DFG fielded shoreline cleanup assessment teams equipped with GPS-based PenMap and ArcPad technology to collect, inventory, and document field observations. This field information was then transmitted to an incident command center where in near real time it was posted to an ArcIMS Web site for universal use by all local and remote exercise participants.
