Abstract:

The first objective of the study was to identify the source, character, currency and format of environmental, ecological, geological and other data for each existing facility site and organize it in a “hard copy” and/or computerized framework to aid the prioritization and planning process for facility upgrades to protect the environment, for regulatory compliance, and for potential replacement or relocation of existing sites. An extensive investigation of available GIS databases was conducted and a directory of relevant databases constructed, including over 30 that integrated INDOT facility or highway location GIS data with the geographic or environmental feature. The directory was compiled in a CD-ROM and distributed to INDOT staff who, subsequently, participated in a training program conducted by study researchers.
