1 Practice: Centralized Linear Referencing System (LRS)
Subject Areas: Asset Management
Planning
GDC
State: West Virginia
Organization: West Virginia Department of Transportation
Contact: Karl Epps
Title: Geospatial Transportation Information Section
Email: Karl.A.Epps@wv.gov
Description: WVDOT personnel are using ESRI's Roads and Highways to build a centralized LRS that will provide a framework for making coordinated updates to the DOT's roadway network data and enable any user across the agency to access information on roadway assets or events (e.g., pavement conditions). This will be helpful for planners, designers, or engineers who need access to current network data to make decisions about where or how a transportation facility should be built.
   
2 Practice: Development of New Transportation GIS Database
Subject Areas: Operations
Planning
State: West Virginia
Organization: West Virginia Department of Transportation
Contact: Hussein Elkhansa
Title: GIS Section Head
Email: hussein.s.elkhansa@wv.gov
Phone: 304-558-9657
Description: WVDOT is in the process of creating a transportation GIS database that uses a linear reference system (LRS) to manage both state owned and non-state public roads. The database will support advanced transportation analysis such as networking. The research is a collaborative effort between West Virginia DOT and ESRI. A logical database was completed and now WVDOT is preparing the GIS data to populate the database.
   
3 Practice: Enterprise GIS Implementation
Subject Areas: Operations
Planning
State: West Virginia
Organization: West Virginia Department of Transportation
Contact: Hussein Elkhansa
Title: GIS Section Head
Email: hussein.s.elkhansa@wv.gov
Phone: 304-558-9657
Description: WVDOT is in the process of improving its existing enterprise GIS system by following suggestions in the Enterprise GIS Roadmap prepared by ESRI. The project is a collaborative effort between WVDOT and ESRI.
   
4 Practice: ESRI Roads and Highway Solution Deployment
Subject Areas: Asset Management
Environment
Maintenance
Operations
Planning
State: West Virginia
Organization: West Virginia Department of Transportation
Contact: Hussein Elkhansa
Title: GIS Section Head
Email: hussein.s.elkhansa@wv.gov
Phone: 304-558-9657
Description: WVDOT will deploy the ESRI Roads and Highway Solution. The Solution includes a suite of modules for managing and maintaining Road Inventory Log and Linear Referencing System (LRS) data. It will be installed on top of the new transportation GIS database.
   
5 Practice: Highway Map Reproduction
Subject Area: Operations
State: West Virginia
Organization: West Virginia Department of Transportation
Contact: Hussein Elkhansa
Title: GIS Section Head
Email: hussein.s.elkhansa@wv.gov
Phone: 304-558-9657
Description: The current highway maps at WVDOT were created in 2004/2005 and are maintained in CAD. Some of their contents are out of date. WVDOT is currently reproducing all highway maps in a GIS environment. The new highway maps will provide more accurate and up to date information, and will be dynamically integrated into the WVDOT enterprise GIS. This is a multiple year project.
   
6 Practice: Mobile GIS Application Development
Subject Area: Operations
State: West Virginia
Organization: West Virginia Department of Transportation
Contact: Hussein Elkhansa
Title: GIS Section Head
Email: hussein.s.elkhansa@wv.gov
Phone: 304-558-9657
Description: This mobile GIS application, based on ESRI ArcGIS Mobile technology, will allow districts to collect municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) data. The application will simplify the process of data collection and integrate the data seamlessly into the WVDOT enterprise GIS. The application will serve as a template for future mobile GIS applications.
   
7 Practice: Transportation GIS Data Collection
Subject Area: Operations
State: West Virginia
Organization: West Virginia Department of Transportation
Contact: Hussein Elkhansa
Title: GIS Section Head
Email: hussein.s.elkhansa@wv.gov
Phone: 304-558-9657
Description: This will include transportation GIS data such as trails, landslides, intersections, railroad crossings, and concurrent routes, which are fundamental to the WVDOT enterprise GIS. The task involves joint efforts between in-house resources and District forces.
   
8 Practice: WVDOT STIP Web Mapping Application
Subject Area: Operations
State: West Virginia
Organization: West Virginia Department of Transportation
Contact: Hussein Elkhansa
Title: GIS Section Head
Email: hussein.s.elkhansa@wv.gov
Phone: 304-558-9657
Description: WVDOT is improving its current Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) web mapping application by adding new functionality. For example, the new application allows for the use of line features, in addition to point features, to show the locations of construction sites.
