Abstract
 ArcPad Application Supporting Los Alamos National Laboratory's Storm Water Monitoring Program Track: Water, Wastewater, and Stormwater Author(s): Kevin Buckley, Janina Barnes Los Alamos National Laboratory has been using an Oracle database for several years to track inspections of sites where storm water runoff issues are a concern. An ArcPad interface has been developed running on Trimble GeoXTs that allows the inspection and maintenance records to be entered directly in the field. The field units can download/upload data directly with the main Oracle database. This system allows users to enter an inspection for each area of concern, with all of the related Best Management Practices (BMPs). Maintenance that is required or has been completed may also be entered. This allows for inspections to be completed and entered more quickly and accurately than with the previous paper map and inspection sheet. It also ensures follow-up is completed in a timely manner. The GPS aspect of the system ensures that users inspect the correct area and that areas needing maintenance can be easily located. Kevin Buckley Snoqualmie Tribe MS K497, P.O.
