2018 GIS in Business: Development of a Low Cost and Easy to Configure Geospatial ETL "Data Workflow" That Can Be Deployed On AWS Or Via Docker Deployment
•
0 likes•19 views
Does your organization consume external data via API calls, connect-up-to internal silo’d data sources and/or wrangle shapefiles and spreadsheets in a somewhat messy way? Although an analyst with scripting chops can be a life-saver in a pinch, we all know that scripts have their limitations as far as standardization, cross-training and on-boarding new employees and maintaining operations. If you lose your scripting wizard to a new higher paying job, you might be treading water or worse. We will do a “Live" demo of an ETL data transformation that includes a US Census API call and a CSV loading to PostgreSQL and PostGIS. We will also talk a little DevOps and do this using a solution built on AWS and show a second similar solution with a Docker deployment for on-prem needs.

Cloud Task Execution at Scale with example from quant finance
Calculating CVA (Credit valuation adjustment) in a timely manner poses a big performance challenge for financial institutions. The number of trades encompasses the entire institution, not just an individual desk’s book(s). It is needed intraday as positions and markets update.
In this talk we highlight the tools needed to achieve the performance required to deliver CVA on time. We will focus on Origami – a DAG Execution Engine. Origami is a light-weight task execution framework which is easy to use and maintain. Users combine tasks into a DAG. Origami can execute the DAG on an ad hoc cluster of workstations on the local network, on a dedicated in-house grid, on production cloud, or on a hybrid of all these.

The equitable distribution of bike paths ensuring safe cycling are inconsistently planned and evaluated. For residents to fully utilize bikes, it is essential that bike networks equitably serve all urban populations. In the absence of impartial evaluation, the construction of biking infrastructure may continue to perpetuate cycles of disadvantage. By measuring the spatial equity of six urban biking networks using GIS (San Francisco, Chicago, Minneapolis, Madison, Boulder and College Station) and interviewing transportation planners, we demonstrate that equity can play a role in planning. We provide spatial and qualitative analyses revealing varying relationships between urban transport planning and the relative equity of bike networks in major cities.

Geospatial Information in Emergency Operations
2018 GIS in the Rockies Vendor Showcase (Th): The Data Driven Government
Today, GIS is not just software. It’s data. It’s people. It’s getting to the answer. Quicker. Data is expanding. More users demand access to information but don’t consume the information in the same way as a GIS professional would. But as curators and managers of geospatial information, GIS professionals are looking to support the entire organizational needs not just those in GIS Departments. The chief information officer is acutely aware of how much geospatial data is being collected; now, how do city and state governments leverage these data for smarter, more effective government services. Here are five pillars of the data-driven government to consider:
1. Extensibility: Whatever the choice, the platform must be customizable for users beyond the GIS department. Knowledge workers need access to geospatial technology too.
2. Usability: GIS is a complex tool. However, today’s desktop platform must be adaptable to many types of workflows.
3. Flexibility: The next generation of geospatial solutions must be ready to support the desktop, cloud, SaaS as well as mobile platforms. GIS must adapt to the user’s preferred IT environment…not the other way around.
4. Compatibility: GIS must work in mixed environments of open source and commercial software and ingest data from myriad sources.
5. Expandability: Can your GIS environment work in the world of big data? Smart cities depend on ingesting sensor data produced at high rates that require geoprocessing on a scale not thought possible until recently.

2018 GIS in Recreation: The Making of a Trail
As a part of a joint effort between the Town of Silverthorne and the Summit Sky Ranch development, Allpoints GIS and Contour Logic were contracted to provide trail planning services on private and National Forest lands. Several variables presented challenges that required detailed planning work. Lidar data analysis, 3D web scenes, survey data, high resolution web maps, and ArcGIS Collector in the field were all employed in a joint desktop and field GIS effort to create trail plans. I will detail our GIS methods and products from this project from start to finish.
2018 GIS in Recreation: The Latest Trail Technology Crowdsourcing Maps and Apps
Americans are increasingly recognizing the health, quality of life, environmental, and economic benefits that trails and active transportation offer.

2018 GIS in Development: Partnerships Lead to Additional Recreational Content...
In 2010, the USGS National Geospatial Program (NGP) began producing the new US Topo map series. The first maps were relatively simple, but quality and content have continually improved. Recreational features, especially trails, are among the most often requested features, but have been difficult to add due to lack of national datasets. Some trails in National Forests were added in 2014. In 2015 the USGS partnered with the International Mountain Biking Association (REI-Adventure Projects) to include trails outside of Federal lands. A pilot project with the National Park Service in 2016 added trails, visitor centers, trailheads, and campgrounds to US Topo maps covering the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. 2018 US Topo maps include trails, trailheads, campgrounds, picnic areas, visitor centers, and other recreation information on selected Federal lands, using data provided by the relevant agencies. Continuing into the future, the USGS is working on partnerships with states and other organizations including The National Map Corps to expand recreational features to non-Federal lands. All such data will be in the public domain and published in The National Map geospatial databases.
2018 GIS in Recreation: Adding Value to Colorado the Beautiful Initiative carr
The main point of this abstract is increasing the value of the current Colorado the Beautiful Initiative through additional data points gathered by mapping the trail systems with the use of unmanned aerial systems and 3rd party software to build the additional data points to be included in the current mapped environment.
I have used Unmanned Aerial Systems and 3rd Party Mapping Software Companies (DroneDeploy, Precision Hawk, Pix4D, and DroneMapper) to build sample data to support my work
I have been able to create sample maps, photos, video of certain trail sections to show how additional data sets can be included to increase the value of the initiative for both the public and government sectors
With the data I have collected, I can discuss several points of interest with the conference. I can show how the data can be utilized to benefit the public sector: Safety, knowledge, and planning and the government sector: trail maintenance, anticipating future problems- heavy traffic areas or lost hikers, plant health - fire danger and erosion, and intersection of multiple agency and private land area issues.
2018 GIS in Recreation: A Creek Runs Through It
The City of Manitou Springs is planning a creek walk along Fountain Creek, an aspirational goal for over two decades. The question is: how to unite a diverse set of stakeholders with competing interests to agree on a preferred route, that incorporates their values and priorities? The answer was to use geodesign.
Geodesign is a powerful participatory planning method that uses stakeholder input and geospatial analytics to show the possible impact of design scenarios. It gets its strength in two ways: 1) from the diversity of participants—proving the adage that two heads are indeed better than one—and 2) from the power of spatial analytics, which allow the visualization of the world both as it is, and as it could be.
The presentation will focus on how geodesign methods where used to define stakeholder groups, clarify values, and prioritize criteria to help decision makers evaluate planning scenarios. Esri ArcGIS Pro was utilized to develop models—such as bikeability, walkability, ADA compliance, and more—that were used to both visualize and evaluate the impacts of each route segment. The spatial analysis resulted in an innovative solution that addressed both the concerns of both government and public stakeholders.
Attendees of this session will learn how to use geodesign as a systems approach for informed decision-making. More importantly, they will learn how to use spatial technology to guide conversations among diverse stakeholders to come up with plans that people understand and are happy with.

The National Map Corps (TNMCorps) is a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) citizen science project that uses crowdsourcing techniques to update structures data for The National Map and U.S. Topo maps. Using an online mapping application, volunteers confirm or update structures such as hospitals, cemeteries, post offices, schools, law enforcement, and fire stations.
Since its initiation in 2010 and nation-wide expansion in 2013, TNMCorps has evolved to become a stable and productive citizen science project. A new and internally-developed web application was launched in 2016. TNMCorps has also broadened the variety of approaches used to engage with volunteers. As a testimony to its success, TNMCorps recently passed a major milestone, with volunteers having collected more than 300,000 points. This presentation will provide an overview of the TNMCorps project as a whole while briefing audience members on milestones and enhancements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object Calisthenics
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
