1 Developing a GIS-based Facilities Management System (GFMS) for Water Districts: Davao City WD Experience Jeannette Mercado Delino, MM IT Consultant for Water Utilities DCTech Micro Services, Inc. Davao City 1

2 Outline What is GIS? Components Benefits DCWD GFMS 2

3 GIS A computer system capable of assembling, storing, manipulating and displaying geographically referenced information Geographic Information Systems 3

4 GIS: A Spatial View of Data 4

5 Overlaying Combining information from one GIS layer with another GIS layer to derive an attribute for one of the layers. Examples of Data Layers: Customer / Meters Road / Barangay River Elevation Land usage 5

6 Overlaying ETH AGUILAR LAGUNA EAST LAWIN VIGAN RD. EAST MAYA DR. NO NAME LACUMAY BASA MATIAS ARAGON VICTORIA HILLS V. ILAGAN MILLER AVE.

7 1. Hardware equipment needed to support the activities. - Server - Workstations - Digitizer - GPS data logger GIS Components 7

8 2. Software for creating, editing & analyzing spatial and attribute data. - Genamap - ArcView - MapInfo - Other customized applications GIS Components 8

9 3. Data the core of any GIS application. GIS Components Geodatabase is referenced to the earth, grouped into vector and raster. Attribute data tied to spatial data. 9

10 4. People well-trained and knowledgeable in spatial analysis, surveying and programming. GIS Components 10

11 GIS Benefits Better decision-making, service, and responsiveness to internal & external customers; Improvement in the quality and timeliness of services; Productivity gains by greatly reducing the labor and cost of accessing info; 11

12 GIS Benefits Information security and protection against catastrophic loss of valuable paper maps and records in the event of a fire or other disaster. Partnerships and resource sharing using the fundamental basis of GIS as an integrator of information to leverage partnerships with LGUs. 12

13 GIS Benefits Opportunities for outside revenues by selling GIS data or products, or joining in partnerships with other organizations in a local area to help fund GIS implementation. Quality of life enhancement - GIS technology contributes directly to planning and development. 13

14 DCWD GFMS Implementation 14

15 Activities Conducted Planning and Organization Preparation of Preliminary Basemap Aerial photos Digital Data Conversion Aerial photos Creation of Project Team Satellite photos Raster map Composite basemap Topographic maps DCWD Facilities map DCWD Customer map 15

16 Activities Conducted Ground Survey Validation Systems Design Systems Development User Training Additional GCPs Investigation Programming Concepts Barangay limits, road locations Survey data vs. topographic basemap Analysis Pilot: Attribute database build-up Installation and testing GIS Software Data entry, editing & updating GPS data conversion Design Documentation Outputs & reports 16

17 Functionalities Computerized search of intersections to easily locate complaints Point-and-click determination of NRW Visual and tabular reports of facilities 17

18 Features Customized menus Data security Spatial inquiry Multi-user capability Database queries with spatial links Mapping updates using GPS 18

19 Contour Lines - 20m Interval (Topographic Map 1:50,000) 19

20 River System (Topographic Map 1:50,000) 20

21 Road Network (Topographic Map 1:50,000) 21

22 Road Polygon (Topographic Map 1:4,000) 22

23 Operation Coordinate among departments Provide HW&SW support Create customized apps Assist in printing maps Updating of digital basemaps roads landmarks as-built plans Visualization of watershed area Attending to complaints and queries ECD CREA CPD ICTD PD CSD PAMD Management reports Projections Monitoring Studies Updating of customer layer NSC site investigation Location maps for meter maintenance Route maps for meter reading Validation of: Existence of new road Location of pipes, valves, etc. Gate Valve Reference Card Water quality monitoring 23

24 Challenges Outdated customer layer No permanent status in organizational structure Users lack of understanding of basic GIS Organization turf protection Lack of policy and documentation of GIS standards 24

25 Opportunities Create GIS Division under ICTD Strong and dedicated higher management support Goals and workplans More standards, structured processes and better documentation GIS user group meetings Partnership with LGUs and other entities 25

26 Strengths Workable hardware & software Lower-level staff work well together 26

27 Lessons Learned Organizational structure is an essential element contributing to the success or failure of a GIS implementation. People, workflow and technology are major factors contributing to organizational structure. 27

28 A NEED FOR BALANCE People Technology Workflow 28
