PUBLISHING CONCEPTS TO DERIVE MULTIPLE DIGITAL DATA FORMATS USING ARCGIS

Planners and policy makers are increasingly utilizing geospatial data to help guide and influence decisions about the management and protection of geologic resources. To grow with the expanding availability of spatial visualization software, the GRI now produces the following data formats of geospatial data: 1.) an ESRI file geodatabase and Arcmap Document, 2.) an ESRI map services and the NRMapViews custom viewer, and 3.) KML Google Earth files. By maintaining focus on our GIS base product and by leveraging existing properties within the GIS file geodatabase and related ArcMap document, and by using standard out-of-the-box ArcGIS tools, we have streamlined our data production process.
