Abstract
 Some 'Assimilation' Required: Former Fort Ord's Data Integration System (FODIS) Track: Environmental Management Author(s): Ryan Tombs, David Eisen, Cary Stiebel, Larry Floyd Maintaining the involvement of the local community in the cleanup of the former Fort Ord and providing scientists and engineers with a complete and integrated dataset are essential for an effective base realignment. With a large amount and wide array of data to analyze and disseminate, Army Corps personnel identified that a more robust data management and information dissemination solution was necessary. Fort Ord personnel devised an ArcIMS software-based system that provides GIS and database query tools to the public and advanced query tools to scientists, engineers, and subcontractors. Data once inaccessible and difficult to analyze is now housed in one central ArcSDE software-enabled SQL database. Administrative document retrieval, unexploded ordnance, water chemistry, parcel transfer status, prescribed burn, and community relations datasets are now at the fingertips of the user. FODIS has become a successful tool utilized throughout the BRAC process.
