Geodatabase Development and Implementation for Paulding County, Georgia
Track: Database Design, Automation, and Management
Author(s): Michael Morris, Jim Kiles

As one of the top ten fastest growing counties in the United States, Paulding County has seen a tremendous growth over the last couple of years. Many of the datasets required for an enterprise GIS were either in development or in the process of completion. Paulding County needed a way to incorporate these disparate datasets into one seamless, maintainable geodatabase environment. The focus of this presentation is to review the steps necessary in developing, implementing, and maintaining an enterprise GIS at a county level. The presentation will go over the different geodatabases considered and how the Esri templates were used in their development. The agencies that were involved in defining the geodatabases and how these same agencies contributed to the maintenance process. And finally the tools used to maintain the geodatabases and how they were defined to meet the users maintenance requirements.
