Title: | Environmental Information Resources Branch Lead | |
Phone: | (512) 416-2541 | |
Description: | In February 2001, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Environmental Affairs Division began the project planning process to design and implement a spatial data server that would facilitate the delivery of environmental Geographic Information Systems (GIS) data across TxDOT's infrastructure. The spatial data server will serve as an environmental library that will allow a user in any of the TxDOT districts and divisions to retrieve centrally located data to create project-level GIS maps on their own computer. Project planners and designers can use GIS applications to scope and analyze potentially impacted species, wetlands, and other natural resources in a project area. As a result, resource needs and mitigation strategies can be addressed early, streamlining the environmental process. TxDOT staff will be able to access the environmental library with all ESRI GIS applications, including ArcGIS. Pilot testing is planned for early 2003. | |
