The Year in Infrastructure 2008 - (Page 22) innovation in cadastre and land development Surell Consulting Using MicroStation GeoGraphics for Editing Oracle Spatial Data in a Mixed Environment Stockholm, Sweden the city of Stockholm needed an application to enable editing of road center lines stored in an Oracle Spatial road documentation system. The Swedish company Tekis AB developed the product Lokal Vagdatabas for administrating road-related information for local governments. The product supports the Swedish national road standard as defined by the Swedish Road Administration and its National Vagdatabas. Using Lokal Vagdatabas, the road center lines can be created and edited from different GIS clients. Each GIS client has a different approach for supporting Oracle Spatial. For instance, some need additional tables, some parallel schemas, and some extra data columns to support symbology, cartographic text, and other workflows. Since the city of Stockholm uses MicroStation for base mapping, a MicroStation GeoGraphics client was developed.

With this project, Warsaw became the second city in Poland to complete strategic noise maps. To measure urban noise, the firm needed to acquire various sources of acoustic and nonacoustic data about roads, buildings and their functions, building populations, aircraft operations, activity of industrial institutions, and other sources of noise. The project’s components included data acquisition, storage in a database, making calculations, and opening the data to users though a web server. MicroStation GeoGraphics was chosen for its integrated engineering and mapping applications on a single platform and solid database interface and spatial analysis functionality. The noise maps were completed in three months. 2008 bE AwARdS oF ExCEllENCE ALSO NOMINATED IN SpEcIAL cATEgOry: SuSTAININg Our SOcIETy SpEc EcIAL cATE Su c cIET 22
