AbstractA Web-Based Application Supporting Major Safe Drinking Water Act Goals Track: Environment Management Author(s): William Cooter, James Sinnott, Roger Anzzolin The U.S. EPA Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water is developing a Web-based GIS application related to Safe Drinking Water Act programs. The goals include identifying contaminant risks for drinking water intakes and documenting how states are setting up source water protection areas. A prototype application is described that combines Esri's ArcIMS Internet Map Server with data servers hosting attributes from a range of major EPA data systems such as the Safe Drinking Water Information System. Proximity analysis techniques are highlighted illustrating ways that Esri's new map server and geodatabase technologies facilitate creating tools providing desktop GIS functionality accessible through Web browsers.
