North Dakota Department of Transportation to Improve Performance with Image Log Viewer
Nov. 8, 2006/Harrisburg, Pa.: GeoDecisions, an award-winning leader in the information technology industry specializing in geographic information systems (GIS), recently contracted with the North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) to plan, design, develop, and implement a Web-based image log viewer.
The viewer will enable NDDOT personnel to view images of North Dakota’s highway system. The image log system will contain street-level video and include an online “motion” picture of the highway. When complete, users can conduct field views or observe the exact location of a transportation project without having to perform an on-site inspection of the location.
The image log viewer is designed to be the foundation for NDDOT’s Web-enabled enterprise portal and will guide GIS-related application development over the next several years. Users will have the ability to query or select features on a map and launch a new image log viewer for that location. The enterprise portal will provide the foundation for users to select spatial features or locations on a map and link to future Web-enabled business applications. In addition, the technology used in the portal and viewer will have the ability to be expanded to meet NDDOT’s future GIS and information technology needs.
