Abstract
Development of Low-Cost GIS Based Document Retrieval System Track: State and Local Government Author(s): Jan Wolf The ASAP (As-built, Subdivision, and Plat) Finder is a low-cost and freely distributable GIS application developed by the City of Newberg, Oregon that enables an individual to quickly retrieve documents based on geographic information associated with such documents. The ASAP Finder utilizes Python scripts and ArcObject code to integrate ArcGIS software and MS Access to provide a user-friendly way to access pertinent documents. Through the ASAP Finder, the City of Newberg is now able to rapidly access documents that previously were extremely cumbersome to work with and disseminate. In turn, this saves time and money for the City and entities that interact with the City. Jan Wolf City of Newberg Public Works - Engineering P.O.
