GIS is used throughout the <br />Cityto manage, share, and use spatial data and related information to address a variety of needs, including <br />data creation, modification, visualization, analysis, and dissemination. During the technology workshop <br />held on May 22, 2017, staff demonstrated the benefits of GIS and how it aides in the facilitation of smart <br />city, a digital community, and business ready efforts (figure 1). <br />Figure 1: Benefits of GIS <br />a � <br />A 1/ r► A <br />t <br />Business ccess ° Security & Communications No �0o, • <br />Smart <br />° aOt Securl tet <br />Ready Infrastructure. dere Water <br />GIs Enables Community of the Future <br />dj <br />�o <br />Mobile <br />Workforce <br />Smart <br />city <br />i <br />�sRe <br />07%j 0AO7�0c00' <br />3 °o <br />'Os O <br />m <br />x <br />Outage <br />Management <br />Digital <br />Community <br />In the early 1990's, the City designed and built a custom GIS called Computer Automated Design Mapping <br />& Engineering (CADME). The CADME system was built on Environmental Systems Research Institute, <br />Inc.'s (Esri) infrastructure and framework. CADME is widely used throughout the City and has been <br />meeting the basic needs of users for the last 20 years. Due to the age of the system and the increased <br />difficulty to maintain it, the City recognized the need to migrate from CADME to a modern GIS platform <br />
