IMPACT TO STAFF/RESOURCES: The FY 2019-20 Information Technology budget includes $114,600 in the District budget for these line item purchases.
BACKGROUND: The GIS platform serves many purposes for MPWMD data analysis needs that include: map production, spatial analysis in support of engineering, water resource management, fisheries, conservation, and rationing analysis. All of these functions require the examination of geographic data, management, and dissemination of these data throughout the District. The effectiveness of the GIS to better serve the MPWMD staff and the public is dependent on the ability of staff to analyze geospatial data.
The IT and Accounting programs require various software applications to allow staff to complete their day-to-day duties and tasks as well as provide real-time financial information of the District.
The water demand services require the use of software to process permit applications, process connection charges, perform inspections and provide other property related reporting to staff and the board.
These software platforms serve many purposes for MPWMD data analysis needs that include: map production, spatial analysis in support of engineering, water resource management, fisheries, conservation, and rationing analysis. In addition, it is a vital system for the District’s ongoing surface and subsurface water modeling efforts. The effectiveness of District tasks to better serve the MPWMD staff and the public will be largely achieved through data management and analysis functions which are provided by the software.
