AbstractBridging the Gap: GIS to CAD and Back: A Case Study Track: State and Local Government Author(s): Marc Brown, Marc Damikolas As the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) adopts GIS, it is faced with the challenge of integrating CAD data from design consultants into a facility model. OCSD is in the midst of a $1.6 billion capital improvement program resulting in dramatic changes to its two treatment facilities and regional collection system. This presentation will focus on the methodology developed to move data bidirectionally between GIS and CAD, what and how a facility model works, why standards and procedures are crucial to maintaining an accurate as-is condition of the facility, and how data is exchanged between the District and design consultants.
