2004 UC Proceedings Abstract
Migrating a County Government to Geodatabase Editing Track: State and Local Government Author(s): Shannon Porter Johnson County AIMS (Automated Information Mapping System) is the GIS department in the third fastest growing county in the nation and the largest county in Kansas. The department, originally started in 1986, has a significant code investment in AML, Avenue, and MapObjects for the purpose of data maintenance and quality control. In order to utilize many of the new advances in ArcSDE and ArcGIS, AIMS realized it needed to expedite its transition from coverage to geodatabase editing and replace current editing applications. This paper identifies not only the issues and problems AIMS faced, but the solutions, workarounds, and best practices that AIMS has discovered in the process of this transition.
