Greetings OK
GIS Community:
The January GI Council meeting will
be held on Friday, January 6, 2012 at
10:30 a.m. in the Second Floor Conference Room of the Water
Resources
Board
Building
(3800 North
Classen,
OKC). The agenda will be sent out once it has been finalized.
The meeting will include a
presentation titled "Automated
Permitting and Routing for Oversized and Overweight Vehicles”"
by Jay Adams, OK Department of Transportation. The Oklahoma Department
of Transportation in cooperation with the Department of Public Safety developed
an automated Oversized/Overweight OSOW Permitting and Routing solution and is
making this new system available to the public via the internet. The purpose of
the system was to streamline the workflow for requesting and approving an
operating permit for the state of Oklahoma
while providing a robust GIS routing application to evaluate safe routes using
existing enterprise GIS Asset data and enhanced GIS map capabilities for
analysis of the network. This presentation will provide an overview of the
business drivers for implementing such a solution along with the technical
approach selected to satisfy the OSOW permitting and routing requirements.
As always,
the GI Council meetings are open to the public and we encourage any one who
uses GIS or has an interest in GIS to attend.
Happy Holidays!
