2013 Enterprise Track, Building the Spatial Enterprise for Denver Public Scho...GIS in the Rockies
The Planning and Analysis department at Denver Public Schools is the center of support for the 2nd largest school district in the State of Colorado, and spatial data is a crucial enabler of most of the analysis that is done in our department. Recently, however, we begun to re-think how our data could be used, and started a complete overhaul of our planning database.
This session will examine the use of maps and analysis at DPS, the process of merging our Geographic Information System with a Spatial Information Technology workflow, and how this new database serves the needs of analysts throughout the district.
Topics covered will include how we use spatial data, SQL analysis, and GIS processes to support the workflows of our analysts, the tools used to create the new database design, load data, and test it across the enterprise, and where our spatial and SQL analysis will go in the years to come.
What's the status of the NSDI?
Cowen's address will provide his perspective on the current status of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). He will draw from his extensive experience with the National Research Council’s Mapping Science Committee, chairing the NRC study National Land Parcel Data: A Vision for the Future, a recent term as chair of the National Geospatial Advisory Committee, and his service as vice chairman of the Coalition of Geospatial Organizations (COGO) Report Card Committee on the NSDI. Through these activities he has observed and analyzed the Federal geospatial landscape for the thirty years since president Clinton issued Executive Order 12906, Coordinating Geographic Data Acquisition and Access: The National Spatial Data Infrastructure in 1994. He will comment on the changing role of various stakeholders in the collection, maintenance and sharing of geospatial data.
