Abstract
 Establishing a Geospatial Information Office at White Sands Missile Range Track: Defense and Intelligence Author(s): John Kennedy, Carol Placchi, Bryan Perdue, Alex Lugo, Brian Burek Establishing a geospatial information office within the garrison structure of White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) has proven to be a balancing act between technology advancements and work-flow process integration. The vision for the geospatial information office at WSMR is GIS access on each PC desktop within five years. The two biggest hurdles have been access to GIS services, both online and in traditional work orders, and the integration of GIS technology into day-to-day workflows. Access to the WSMR GIS databases, using ArcSDE and MS SQL Server 2000, has been configured to use a combination of Smart Card access, local SQL accounts, and secured web services. Process integration has been assisted by the adoption of a spatial data standard for facilities and infrastructure. This presentation will offer an outline of what decisions where made, how software was configured, what was learned from this process, and future goals and objectives.
