The City of Lacey, Washington is a long-time client of Geographic Technologies Group (GTG). In 2020, they reengaged with our team for assistance with a data migration. Their 2008 server was end-of-life and being upgraded to a new machine, and they didn’t want to lose their GTG GeoMax software they’d been utilizing for years. When our GTG team got the call, we were able to inform them that we would not only be able to migrate data to their new server, but we would also upgrade their outdated GeoMax platform to our new GeoAdaptor software.
GeoAdaptor takes data from any source and geo-enables it. The City of Lacey utilizes this adaptive software for pulling land management data from their Enterprise Resource Database into a GIS Viewer. The City’s GIS Coordinator was excited to continue working with GTG. He trusted GeoMax’s ability to bring their data into GIS Viewers and was thrilled that our team was able to provide the upgrade to GeoAdaptor along with the server migration services.
Within a month, we migrated and upgraded the City to GeoAdaptor and configured the software to pull Land Management data from their Central Square ERP (Enterprise Resource) database to create GIS layers for Permits, Code Enforcement, Utility Billing, and Work Orders. GeoAdaptor gives data a location as soon as it is entered. It leveraged the City of Lacey’s critical data spatially and allowed their teams to identify data inaccuracies and immediately fix them.
GIS Viewers are only as useful as the data integrated with the interface. GeoAdaptor pulls data from any city resource and puts it on the map to spatially enable information. This innovative software can create new digital data layers with unique user-defined attributions. Users can combine and merge data attributes from multiple sources to create unique GIS layers for analysis. Procedures can also be automated. The City of Lacey can schedule multiple database manipulation routines, including real-time geocoding, reporting, layer output, spatial overlay analysis, and data export to run every minute, hour, or day as needed.
The City of Lacey is now set up to integrate data from a multitude of sources. GeoAdaptor extracts, mines, creates, and stores new digital feature class, SDE and/or shapefiles, and allows for the creation of comprehensive statistical reports and real-time email notifications for continued quality assurance. GTG provided training upon setup and will continue to maintain and support the City’s GeoAdaptor software as needed.
