Abstract

MCIEAST Geospatial Data Migration from SDSFIE 2.6 to 3.0
Track: Spatial Data Infrastructure
Authors: Darrell Dodgens, Lynn Phillips

Presentation will cover the Marine Corps Installations East (MCIEAST) Geospatial Information & Services Division's planning, implementation, and lessons learned from the Spatial Data Standards for Facilities, Infrastructure and Environment (SDSFIE) version 3.0 migration, which was a 100% reengineering of existing data structures. Topics will cover; (1) Criteria used in developing MCIEAST's adaptation. (2) Tools used for physical migrations: ESRI's PLTS Data Loader and SDSFIE.ORG's web tools. (3) Other considerations such as timing of database cutover, web application dependencies, and metadata. And (4) lessons learned during the migration such as the advantages and disadvantages of each tool.
