INTRODUCTION
AT ISSUE: Develop New Maps for GBRA’s Web Site Current map is a static map only Shows watershed boundaries only with
no other info
GOAL OF THE PROJECT:Create new maps for addition to their
web siteInteractive maps for visitors to see and
useCreate data which can be downloaded
from site
Current Map:
Source: GBRA Web Site www.gbra.org
Prepared for GBRA’s 2007 Basin Highlights Report
Methodology
DATA MUST UNDERGO THE FOLLOWING STEPS
Phase 1: Data Collection and Development
Phase 2: Data Assembly (Arc-GIS Software)
Phase 3: Web-GIS Assembly (Manifold Software)
PHASE 1: DATA COLLECTION
Source: touringtexas.com
Task
Geo-Tex Spatial Solutions (GTSS) must collect data to built GIS-web interactive maps
GTSS must make available about 11 different types of layers to help inform the wide range of GBRA website users
Data must be from reliable sources
Data Collection Methods
Internet
Phone
Excel files

Data Sources
Issues with Data
The rights to use the data Waiting to receive data Finding incomplete data Size of data Overall time spent looking for data

Phase 2: Data Assembly
The purpose of the Data Assembly is to determine which map data is most suitable for the needs of GBRA. The data will be assembled using a GIS software and will include :
Data provided by GBRA Data discovered from outside agencies Develop data collected from raw data
However, even after the completion date, it is expected Geo-Tex may need to continue to collect and assemble data as needed.
PHASE 3: WEB GIS
By using the Manifold Program (Web GIS) it makes the maps interactive with the user in many ways.
The World-Wide Web opens doors for everyone with internet to make available GeoSpatial Information.
Phase 3: WEB GIS
Benefits to the User:
View only layers they would like to see Makes the maps easier and faster to
download Easy to Navigate GIS information available to all society
members
PHASE 3: WEB GIS (Sample Map)
