Newest Spatial Data Set Being
Developed by WVDEP
Groundwater concentration of Benzene
displayed in ArcGIS as colored contours
EQuIS is an
Oracle database
system
containing
environmental
sampling
locations &
results
Surface water

Statewide Users Benefited from 2003
Improvements in the Interactive Mapper
In 1995
WVDEP
pioneered
WWW-based
mapping
We continue
that tradition
today

Estimated power and
frequent users at the
beginning of 2003 was ~
65.
During the year we
added about 65
occasional and new
users.
Projected increase in
users in 2004 is
expected to be ~ 50.
Accomplishment 2: ArcObjects
Customized Applications Development
Fielded WVDEP’s first, custom built, enterprise spatial application
for the Division of Mining & Reclamation (DMR) in 2003.
Majority of new 2003 GIS users were DMR permitting staff
Trained ~ 60 people to use DMR’s new application
Currently developing custom apps for Offices of Abandoned Mine
Lands & Reclamation and Special Reclamation.
Increased TAGIS’ Spatial Applications Development Group from 1
to 2 people doing full time spatial development work in early ‘04.
Accomplishment 3: IFSAR High Resolution
Elevation Data Acquisition
30 meter resolution DEM produced
from data collected in the 1970s
(part of Williams Mountain Quad)
1.25 meter resolution Orthorectified
Radar Imagery (ORI) produced
from X-band radar data collected
in September 2003 by InterMAP
Goal 1: Migrating GIS Data Archive from
RAID to a Storage Area Network (SAN)

SAN greatly
improves both
quantity of data we
can store and the
speed at which we
can serve data to
end users.
Goal 2: Airborne Imaging of Active Mining
and Abandoned Mine Lands
