Feeding the Data-Hungry Masses
A structure has been devised in Montgomery County, Maryland, for the flexible storage, update, and dissemination of the three major categories of local government GIS databases to a vast array of GIS database users.The scheme handles multiple data formats - ArcInfo coverages, various image formats, AutoCAD DWG files, ArcView shapefiles, and map compositions. With both WAN and LAN connectivities, both remote and local users, can have ready access to these databases.With the advent of distributed database technology and recent Esri advances in SDE, MapObjects, and ArcView Version 3, it is feasible for local governments to serve up highly customized maps and data to the data-hungry masses through Internet or Intranet.
