RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
the Clerk of the Council to execute a five-year agreement with Digital
Map Products to provide and maintain landbase data and digital
orthophotography to the City in an amount not to exceed $451,000.
DISCUSSION
The City uses a Geographical Information System (GIS), a computerized
database management system for storage, management, analysis and display
of geographic data. To utilize the GIS system effectively, landbase data
such as right-of-way, streets, center lines, street names and parcel data
must be present on the system and continuously updated.
A number of outside entities, including the Gas Company, the County of
Orange, First American Real Estate Solutions (formerly TRW), and Thomas
Bros. Maps perform this function and have developed landbase data that
includes the geographical area of Santa Ana. Each of these companies has
a contractual arrangement with Digital Map Products (DMP) who, in turn is
offering the City an agreement that allows the use of this data for a
five year term.
To enhance the system, the City purchases digital orthophotography (a
photograph of the city from the air), which is a computerized image of
the City used for viewing and producing various maps. These digital
images, along with many layers of data and maps of the city are available
to all City users on the City's intranet.
