City of Milpitas to Enhance GIS
Huntsville, Ala., Feb. 22, 2001 -
The city of Milpitas serves a population of approximately 70,000
residents.
The city provides GIS services such as police crime
analysis
maps, fire incident maps, and zoning maps for city personnel. The city is
planning to provide maps to the public on their Web
site. These maps include a zoning map, a map of proposed city projects,
and
a bicycle route map.
City government of
Milpitas, California has deployed the GeoMedia product suite - GeoMedia,
GeoMedia Professional, and GeoMedia WebMap - to enhance their GIS
initiatives. The city's GIS supports several departments including
information services, engineering, transportation, planning, building,
fire,
and police.
Future plans includes deployment of additional Web mapping
applications, such as rezoning notification for the planning department,
network and traffic analysis for the transportation department, and crime
analysis for the police department.
"We did not want to be concerned with the issues of translating data,
changing coordinate systems, or transforming units in order to use outside
data," said Alan Rich, GIS manager, city of Milpitas
Intergraph Mapping and GIS Solutions (IMGS), a division of Intergraph
Corporation develops, markets, and supports core
geospatial
products that address a wide range of market segments.
