• Abstract:
  GeoGIS is a web-based geotechnical database management system that is being developed for the Alabama ; Department of Transportation (ALDOT). The purpose of GeoGIS is to facilitate the efficient storage and retrieval of ; geotechnical documents for ALDOT. The website utilizes a web-based map to search for documents based on the ; location of the project to which the document is associated. Users can also search for documents based on document ; attributes. The website is equipped with a document upload page where users can add geotechnical data to GeoGIS. ; Access to the website is limited to only authorized users with one of four levels of classification: General User, ; Consultant, ALDOT Engineer, or Administrator, listed in order from lowest level of access to highest. General users ; are limited to only viewing the site and searching documents. Consultants have the ability to upload data to the ; GeoGIS database. ALDOT Engineers are charged with the task of approving the uploaded documents and initiating ; new projects, which allows new projects to be available to receive uploaded documents and be displayed on the ; GeoGIS map. Administrators have the additional responsibility of managing GeoGIS users. Each level of ; classification inherits the privileges of each previous level of classification. Currently over 1200 documents have ; been uploaded to GeoGIS for 103 projects across the state of Alabama. GeoGIS is improving daily to accommodate ; new features and improve the overall functionality of the website.
