چکیده
Information technology tools are being used more frequently by transportation agencies all over the United States in an attempt to increase productivity. Especially, very large depository of documents such as, right of way (ROW) maps or plan files for each state road sections ever built and kept by these agencies constitute a major challenge in terms of their efficient processing and retrieval when needed. Thus, information technology based productivity tools appear to be natural solutions to efficiently deal with this kind of very large databases. The solution proposed for the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) is to digitize these documents, and keep them in a digital format, and then to develop a Geographical Information Systems (GIS) based Management Information System (GISMIS) application that ensures effective management and retrieval of requested documents from this very large scanned digital document database. This paper first describes the development efforts of GISMIS tool, and then presents overall application functionality from different perspectives of systems design and various GIS related aspects of the developed tool. Important issues such as integration of GeoMedia Professional with other software tools such as Modular GIS Environment (MGE), MS Access Databases, Visual Basic (VB), and a third party product Falcon/Document Management System (Falcon/DMS), and dynamic segmentation capability of the application are also discussed.
