2005 Logistics Summit
Using GIS Technologies forOversize/Overweight Permitting
• What is GIS?
• GIS Technologies– Spatial Datasets– Geocoding– Routing
• Using the Technologies for Permitting
2005 Logistics Summit
What is GIS?• GIS is a technology that
manages, analyzes, and disseminates geographic knowledge.
• GIS lets you model scenarios to test various hypotheses and see outcomes visually
• GIS is, therefore, about modeling and mapping the world for better decision making.
2005 Logistics Summit
GIS Technologies
• Spatial Datasets– Road Network
• Routes, ramps, rail, bridges…
– Permanent restrictions• Low Clearance, weight, lane width, turning
radius…
– Temporary restrictions• Construction,
maintenance, environmental, major accidents…
2005 Logistics Summit
GIS Technologies
• Geocoding– Use address ranges,
road names and zip code data on the road network to locate addresses.
– Find the begin and end point for the route quicker and more accurately.

GIS Technologies
• Routing– Programmatically find
the most efficient route between locations on the road network.
– Use restriction data associated with the road segments in comparison to the vehicle specs to determine the most acceptable route.
2005 Logistics Summit
Using the Technologies for Permitting
• Online process– Accounts setup– Online permit submittal– Envelope Routes
• Predefined routes• Approval based on envelope
selection, vehicle setup, date of travel and restrictions posted for the travel time.
– Manual Review• Geocoded locations• New GIS based Bridge and
Restriction Maps.– Electronic payment– Online permit printing
2005 Logistics Summit
• Future Processes– Automatic Route Generation and alternatives.
• User selects begin and end points and date for travel.• System analyzes all possible routes based on
– Vehicle configuration
– Temporary restrictions on routes during travel time
– Permanent route restrictions
• Results are one or many of the following– Primary route (shortest or quickest route)
– Alternative routes
– Alternative dates if no successful route is found within the given travel time and the cause for no routes to be found was a temporary restriction.
– Manual review

2005 Logistics Summit
• Restriction Mapping other uses– Develop Adobe PDF maps and online
dynamic maps to show current restrictions to general public
– Restriction data is used in public 511 system for traffic conditions reported via phone.
– Restriction database allows for a single repository of all restriction, construction, maintenance, environmental and major accidents to be disseminated to parties that need to be informed via pager, email, list-serv and internet applications.
– Data entry of restrictions can occur at the most appropriate levels within state government.
• INDOT District and sub-district offices• INDOT Traffic Management Centers• State Police District Offices
