Authors: Carl Henderson

Maryland has invested heavily in facility and infrastructure improvements at its terminals to remain competitive and attract new business. The Maryland Port Administration (MPA) uses GIS to manage these assets and in the process of implementing a Common Data Environment (CDE) where CAD and GIS data are interchangeable. This presentation will cover MPA’s implementation of a CDE through standards, custom Microstation tools, and FME scripts for translating between the two data formats.
