Enterprise Framework Goals

• Security – All components must be securable within a comprehensive and

tractable system. • Scalability

– Applications need to be scalable to support thousands or even millions of users.

• Reliability – Systems must be able to survive any threat, including total destruction

of the main computing center. • Supportability

– To be supportable enterprise applications must fit within a common family, in this case Oracle technology stack.

– Middle‐tier means lower total‐cost of ownership through centralized control and management.

– Available of source code essential for long term client control

3

Middle‐Tier Spatial Editor? • Spatial database is not GIS!

• When is middle‐tier spatial editing indicated? – Many independent participants

• Counties in a State • Agencies and Municipalities in a large County

• Public input – Well constrained edit problem that can be defined as an

application task as compared to open‐ended GIS editing.

– Centralized control and management is central to the mission.

– Task is part of a larger middle‐tier solution.

Common Issues

• Enterprise framework goals – Security, scalability, reliability, supportability

• Diverse data sources – Multiple structured, non‐structured, and spatial data sources

• Not GIS Systems – Spatially enabled databases – GIS is a content provider

• Comprehensive enterprise data store – Spatial is just a data type

5

Technologies

• Java • Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) • Java Persistence Architecture (JPA) • Eclipselink • JavaServer Faces (JSF) • MyFaces Trinidad • Oracle ADF Rich Client • Oracle Spatial • Oracle Maps

West Virginia Department of Emergency Services

• 60% or more of West Virginia residences did not have street addresses

• E911 reporting doesn’t work if you cannot report an address, let alone geolocate

• Project required street addressing and site numbering supporting 55 counties – Some with GIS of many different types

– Most without

• Not possible for State tomandate Counties to use a particular GIS

• Not possible for State to impose costs on Counties

• Required centralized State operated database and management system

• Integration with Telco systems

• Must support Counties with GIS who wanted to use them

• Technologies – Oracle RDBMS & Application Server

– Oracle Spatial and MapViewer

OH Secretary of State • The one‐time creation of a state‐wide precinct boundary and polling location map

for use with HAVA voter registration and election data. – Approximately 12,000 voter precincts and other electoral boundaries from various

manuscripts sourced from county boards‐of‐election. – Boundaries must be correlated (by automated conflation) to U.S. Census Bureau TIGER

Block Boundaries. • Develop an integrated mapping application for maintenance of voting district

boundaries and other election‐related data (EMMA). – A complete production‐ready application usable by all eighty‐eight county boards of

election in Ohio. • Develop a proof‐of‐concept EAC voter registration election reporting tool with

MapViewer integration to the Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) Publisher. – With potential use in real‐time election day publishing

• Technology transfer including documentation, source code, mentoring and training of personnel from the Office of the Ohio Secretary of State.

87

The data model

• U.S. Census MAF/Tiger data

• Ohio HAVA Voter database • Voter Districts and Precincts • Proposals, working and archive tables

MAF/Tiger

Ohio HAVA Voter Database

• Voters – Have addresses

• Addresses – Have regions

• Regions – Include precincts

• Precincts – Should have no more than 1400

voters

• Custom Geocoder – against MAF/Tiger Edges

Voter Districts & Precincts

• Voter Districts may be – Actual – Precinct boundaries match VTD boundaries

– Pseudo – Precinct boundaries cross Census Block boundaries and therefore cannot match VTD boundaries which are collections of Census Blocks

Editing Voting Districts

• VTD Editing – Simply involves adding, removing, transffering Census Blocks (TABBLOCK) between VTDs

• Precinct (Pseudo‐VTD editing) –Match actual VTD by default

– Adding, removing, transferring FACES.

– Editing boundaries • Requires synchronization of boundary edits for coincident Precincts

Proposal Management

• Proposals – Supports multiple proposals

– Requires SOS authorization

– Once authorized finalization drops alternatives

Create Proposal

Find Census Blocks for VTD

Faces / Edges • New MAF/Tiger data types • EDGES include all linear elements

– Census block boundaries – Roads, RR, trails, etc. – Have left and right FACES

• FACES not delivered with shapes – We build FACES shapes from EDGES using Mizar topology

package. • Census Blocks are collections of FACES • Precincts of Pseudo‐VTDs can be created by moving

faces from one Precinct to another.

Face Edit

Precinct Boundary Edit

• Requires when Precinct boundaries are not associated with MAF/Tiger EDGES

• Utilizes Oracle Maps Redlining tools

• Uses AJAX to call Servlet methods to ensure that edit affects both Precincts associated with a boundary

How It’s Done • JSPX

– ADF Rich Client – Oracle’s latest JavaServer Faces component package that is the heart of the Fusion 11g J2EE presentation layer.

• JS – Integrates with Oracle Maps and ADF

• AJAX – Uses XMLHttpRequest() to communicate with Java

• Java – Interacts with database to synchronize adjacent precincts.

JSPX <af:commandButton id="AddPt" text="Add Point Mode" visible="#WorkingPrecinctTable.currentRow.editMode" actionListener="#WorkingPrecinctTable.currentRow.addMode" partialSubmit="true“ partialTriggers="DeletePt DeletePtStop AddPtStop AddPt cancelPrecinct updatePrecinct editPrecinct">

<af:clientListener method="OHSOS.vtdEditor.editPrecinctAddPointModeStart”type="action"/>

</af:commandButton>

JS / AJAX OHSOS.vtdEditor.editPrecinctAddPoint = function(indexI, xI, yI)

var lastFOI = OHSOS.vtdEditor.precinctRedline.getPointFOIs()[OHSOS.vtdEditor.precinctRedline.getPointNumber()1]; var ordinates = OHSOS.vtdEditor.precinctRedline.getOrdinates(); var geom = lastFOI.getGeometry(); var nearestPoint = 0;

if(OHSOS.vtdEditor.addPointMode == true)

// Keep it as squared, faster, easier and I don't need to find the JS sqrt function var nearestDistance = Math.sqrt((ordinates[0] geom.getPointX())*(ordinates[0] geom.getPointX()) +

(ordinates[1] geom.getPointY())*(ordinates[1] geom.getPointY()));

// Last element is the element we just added, so explicitly don't check it for(var i = 0; i < OHSOS.vtdEditor.precinctRedline.getPointNumber() 1; i++ ) var newDistance = Math.sqrt((ordinates[2*i] geom.getPointX())*(ordinates[2*i] geom.getPointX()) +

(ordinates[2*i+1] geom.getPointY())*(ordinates[2*i+1] geom.getPointY())); if(newDistance < nearestDistance) nearestDistance = newDistance; nearestPoint = i;

JS / AJAX // Ok, awesome, we've found the closest point if( nearestPoint == OHSOS.vtdEditor.precinctRedline.getPointNumber()1) nearestPoint = 1; // Nearest point is either first or last, so we're done, we don't need to find the second nearest point else var prevPointDistance = Math.sqrt((ordinates[2*(nearestPoint1)] geom.getPointX())*(ordinates[2*(nearestPoint1)] geom.getPointX()) +

(ordinates[2*(nearestPoint1)+1] geom.getPointY())*(ordinates[2*(nearestPoint1)+1] geom.getPointY())); var nextPointDistance = Math.sqrt((ordinates[2*(nearestPoint+1)] geom.getPointX())*(ordinates[2*(nearestPoint+1)] geom.getPointX()) +

(ordinates[2*(nearestPoint+1)+1] geom.getPointY())*(ordinates[2*(nearestPoint+1)+1] geom.getPointY()));

// If it's closer to the next point than the previous // We don't need to do anything in this case if(nextPointDistance < prevPointDistance)

else nearestPoint += 1;

OHSOS.vtdEditor.precinctRedline.removeVertex(lastFOI); OHSOS.vtdEditor.precinctRedline.addVertex(nearestPoint+1, geom.getPointX(), geom.getPointY());

MIZAR.ajax.phaseListenerRequest('GeomEditor', "command=add" + "&pointId=" + nearestPoint + "&newX="+geom.getPointX() + "&newY="+geom.getPointY(), false);

else // we're not in add mode, so get ride of the point OHSOS.vtdEditor.precinctRedline.removeVertex(lastFOI);

Java public class GeomEditorHandler extends AjaxHandler public GeomEditorHandler()

public boolean processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) WorkingPrecinctTable precinctTable = (WorkingPrecinctTable)FacesUtils.getCurrentInstance("WorkingPrecinctTable"); ProposalTable propTable = (ProposalTable)FacesUtils.getCurrentInstance("ProposalTable");

String command = request.getParameter("command"); String sPointId = request.getParameter("pointId"); String sNewX = request.getParameter("newX"); String sNewY = request.getParameter("newY");

if (precinctTable != null && propTable != null) ProposalRow propRow = (ProposalRow)propTable.getCurrentRow(); if (propRow.isEditable()) if (precinctTable.getList().size() > 0 && precinctTable.getCurrentRow() != null)

if ("move".equals(command) && !"undefined".equals(sPointId) && !"undefined".equals(sNewX) && !"undefined".equals(sNewY))

int pointId = Integer.parseInt(sPointId, 10); double newX = Double.parseDouble(sNewX); double newY = Double.parseDouble(sNewY);

Code to ensure that points of adjacent precincts are synchronized
