Growth Drivers

Information is getting Geotagged.

Governments are looking for process efficiency and more ways to connect with citizens

Citizens want information on the move.

Exploding population of smart mobile phones with built-in GPS capabilities

Computing hardware is getting more and more powerful and prices are dropping every quarter.

Exploding growth of web connected devices and higher bandwidth

National GIS

GIS backbone – Challenges

• Data collection for various sources (paper maps, survey)

• Data Conversion and Migration from various sources like CAD, DGN, FRAME etc, (including digitization of blue prints)

• What is the Cost/Benefit Ratio?

• How to create Base maps?

• What will be cost and effort of creating BaseMap data?

• Infrastructure setup to store and share Land Base data hosting

• Lack of Resources/Expertise for Application framework development

What Are The Costs

LandBase Data Preparation and Conversion 66%

OneMap is conceptualized as common platform for agencies to offer a basemap

Nationwide GIS Includes

Series of standard geographic datasets (framework layers)

Series of workflows that would transactionally maintain (update)

Data management responsibility (governance)

Suite of applications that leverage (use)

A stable organizational and political environment is needed

Leaders and liaisons working full time on collaborative efforts and partnering

Implementation Requirements of Nationwide GIS

Common geospatial data model

Data management workflows

Enterprise system architecture

Technical and management leadership

Strong legislative mandate and an organizational framework

Funding

Maintenance

Steps for designing, building and managing Govt wide GIS system

Vision: National needs, key application areas, resources

Strategic plan: Vision, architecture, tasks, timelines, responsibilities, and priorities

Sell the strategic plan to policy makers

Specific plan: More specific architecture and organizational / institutional structure

Implement the plan rapidly: A prototyping methodology

SLA | Citizen Centric GIS Portal

An Intelligent Map Portal for Public use: SLA-OneMap Find multiple locations and query travel directions Build Geo-Mash up applications with OneMap API Virtual portal to explore places and Singapore geography

Singapore OneMap: Multiple Awards

• ESRI SAG Award in US 2010• Exemplary Systems in Government (ESIG)

Award by the Urban and Regional Information Systems Association (URISA)

MCYS | Typical Implementations

MCYS: Geo-Mash up application Developed using OneMap API Locate social service centers in

Singapore to plan different activities

IDA | Integrated Government Data Portal

Re-define information dissemination through integrated portal | Data.Gov.Sg Provide publicly available information of government at single portal Give a free hand to explore available information to the citizens

Oman | Town Planning

Town Planning and Regional Development where land data takes shape in GIS format (E.g. CIDCO, Jurong-Oman, DMIC)

KDMC | Municipal GIS

Municipal GIS (KDMC) Self Service GIS portal for citizens Ward level Geodatabase management Integration with financial system Water, Property & Grievances workflows

Self Service Municipal GIS Portal of KNN, India Self assessment of Property Taxes and payment Online Grievance redressal Information portal on Muncipal Corporation Ward level spatial data Management

KNN | Self Service Property Tax Portal

AAI | Building Permission System

25

Portal to obtain statuary clearances for construction from civil aviation ministry Flight path visualization and intersection analysis Interfaces with process workflow

JTC | Land Resource Tracking System

26

Textual Dashboard – maintain information of the Land assets. Graphical Dashboard – manage the Land Asset in GIS system. generate Layout plans, allocation plan etc.

DLF | Land Information Systems

27

Recommendations

Treat data as strategic, capital assets and public goods Standardize spatial data requirements across multiple departments

and applications Establish central spatial database repository Collaborate and Coordinate Align roles, responsibilities and resources for data stewardship Organize Effective and Efficient Production and Stewardship of Data Build mobile GIS applications Set up clearing houses and geo-portals to service multiple

departments and applications Leverage Infrastructure and data to build geo mash up applications Pool and Leverage Investments Most importantly identify the right implementation partner
