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.
The essentials for life at cogs
This document summarizes a project to create a web application with rental and amenity information for future students of the Centre of Geographic Sciences (COGS) using ArcGIS Online. The project team collected rental data, points of interest, and trail information. They performed network analysis to determine commute times from rentals to COGS by vehicle and walking. Finally, they built a web map with the data and customized it using ArcGIS Online and JavaScript APIs. The web application allows users to search information that will help in deciding where to live and what amenities are available near COGS.
Big Data Kappa | Mark Senerth, The Walt Disney Company - DMED, Data Tech
In a world where there is an ever growing shift towards event driven streaming data, Kafka is firmly embedded in the epicenter of any Data Platform’s central nervous system. In an attempt to aide in the shift of analytics towards true event time, we have implemented a pure Kappa architecture - effectively turning the database inside out. Through extending the concept of a truly idempotent stream of events, Kafka has been elevated to the source of truth. We have eliminated extra network trips for joins as well as querying state which has significantly improved processing performance while also reducing processing latency. Tune in to discuss challenges, tips and lessons learned while implementing a pure Kappa Architecture. I will address hurdles such as scaling, warm standbys, schema evolution, and batch replay strategies - highlighting issues prevalent with any streaming Kappa based architecture. Streaming big data in and of itself comes with its own set of challenges - such as serialization formats, encryption, and strategies to efficiently utilize message headers. I invite each and every one of you to embark on a journey discussing a means to an end - resulting in processing billions of records each day.

GISCO Fall 2018: Bike Network Equity: A GIS and Qualitative Analysis of Ameri...
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.

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 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.

2018 GIS in Development: Semantic Web
A semantic web is a relativity modern technology coined by Sir Tim Berners-Lee in 2001. Web 2.0 is readable by humans. We have HTML 5 and CSS and it does a great job of allowing information to be read by humans. Where web 2.0 fails is supporting machine reading. This then brings up web 3.0. Being able to support data is great, but often what we are most interested in is not the data itself, but the relationships between and among data. Think about how hard it is currently to get all water features. Those features are often in different services and provided by different organizations. I want to quickly and easily get all water features nationally. This is where a semantic web would be very useful because one can store the relationships between data to give you all water features. This talk will show you some of the advantages of a semantic web and how it can be used to answer questions that one would struggle to answer without it.
