We will present our ArcGIS-based solution to the Savannah Harbor Expansion Project environmental monitoring effort. Our data management & analysis solution provides long term access to multitemporal data and GIS tools for near-real time identification of critical levels for key environmental variables, the ability to compare current conditions to baseline values, and to graphically monitor changes over time. Our experience can benefit groups implementing similarly complex environmental projects.
