GeoGIS is a web-based geotechnical database management system developed for the Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT). The purpose of GeoGIS is to facilitate the efficient storage and retrieval of geotechnical documents. The website utilizes a web-based map to search for documents based on the location of the project to which the document is associated. Project 930-982, GeoGIS Transition and Support has three primary tasks. Task 1 was to integrate GeoGIS with eDocs and transfer the application to ALDOT. This task has been completed. Task 2 was to continue to add functionality based on user feedback. In this period of performance, based on user feedback, GeoGIS was adapted to accept and process DIGGS documents for Atterberg Limits and Cone Penetration Tests. GeoGIS was also adapted to accept landslide events and associated documents and metadata. Additionally, GeoGIS has been populated with bridge points and bridge cards. Task 3 was to continue to populate projects with their associated documents. During the period of performance of this project an additional 396 projects were initialized, and an additional 1,527 documents were added.
