Abstract:
The mapping has produced more than 2,100 km2 of detailed information equivalent to fourteen 1:24,000-scale quadrangles. Depending on the amount of landslide activity in the area, each county requires 10 40 GB of storage consisting of large raster datasets. These include several vintages of scanned and georectified aerial photography, high-quality post-storm digital orthophotography, and numerous LiDAR-derived rasters used in the debris flow susceptibility modeling.
To meet an aggressive schedule, we are streamlining our current database management system and workflow to improve field and office efficiency. The program is migrating toward an ArcSDE geodatabase where data will be entered in the field using handheld GPS devices, edited by multiple users simultaneously in the office, and seamlessly incorporated into the GIS-based mapping. The geodatabase will consist of primary files (i.e., landslides, deposits, tracks, etc.) linked together through related tables. Large raster datasets and the geodatabase will be maintained on a shared server linked with our departmental IT server in Raleigh to improve data sharing and reduce data duplication.
