The City's GIS is
the computer based mapping technologies used to provide information on
the location of zoning districts, parks, roads, houses, businesses, and
other facilities to the City's employees, visitors, and citizens.
The City's employees currently use GIS technology to:
...
give police dispatchers
real time information on
patrol car locations ...
... use GPS coordinates to display nearby hydrant locations and
building addresses on notebook PCs inside emergency vehicles for fire
fighters and paramedics ...
... allow building inspectors have access to
maps showing the locations of flood plains and sensitive environmental
areas using wireless technologies while they are at construction sites
performing inspections.
Residents and visitors can access online maps and Google and Bing web
mapplets created by the City's GIS to:
...determine
the City's pickup day
for yard debris
and trash or old furniture
and appliances...
... locate public beach
accesses with the parking, restroom,
and lifeguard facilities that meet their needs ...
... keep up with planned City construction
projectst such as seeing where road improvements
are planned for the current year.
