Summary

Description

The Enterprise Geospatial Information Services system (eGIS) is a set of web-based applications and services. The Map Viewer application is designed to display data from multiple data sources spatially. The Universal Location Point Selector (ULPS) application will be used by transactional applications to support the depiction and display of the location associated with an incident, event or asset. The eGIS data services can be used by authorized personnel to view data in desktop/web applications and to create maps, identify patterns and trends and enhance traditional tabular reporting capabilities. The eGIS system is supported by a SQL Server 2005 geospatially enabled database and ESRI ArcSDE software. ArcSDE supports the management of the geospatial data contained with the DBMS. The eGIS database is considered the data asset. The eGIS system also displays data from the Border Enforcement Data that has been imported from various transactional systems, but that data is not housed within the eGIS database.
