Introduction to the Monroe County
Department of Environmental Services
GIS Division
► The
division was created in 2000 when the
Department of Planning and Community
Development began mapping environmental
features, the Environmental Services Department
mapped sewers, and the Office of Real Property Tax
Service (Finance) learned the benefits of a GIS for
the maintenance of tax parcels
► The division was then consolidated to be a single
division supporting all County projects
► The division is part of the Department of
Environmental Services

Monroe County GIS Technology Vehicle As A Remote Platform
Should an emergency situation
arise, the GIS technology vehicle is
equipped to process real-time
imagery, through a partnership with
Pictometry, Int. Images can be
sent from a plane to a radio
antenna (seen here mounted on the
observation platform).
► Once the images are received, they
are processed inside the truck and
converted to readable/transferable
files in the matter of minutes,
helping to aid in management
decisions.

Modeling
► Hazus
and Hydrological Modeling
► Aloha and ADASHI
► Other Modeling and Projects
February 11, 2011
CNY ASPRS Feb 2011 Program
19
Hydrological Modeling
► There
are many different hydrological models and
tools to use in a GIS
► Many of these are 2D dealing with flow and capacity
► FEMA used GIS and a technology called LiDAR to
create the latest flood maps
► Hazus-MH, created by FEMA we can create pre
disaster plans for floods as well as display near real
time information
► The County also has a network of gauges that are
available as inputs to the models
► Other Models that are currently being developed are
new stream layers developed using LiDAR data

Rain Gauges
► Currently
we collect
rain information in a
database
► Using GIS we can see
where the gaps are in
our coverage
► We can also see the
area the gauges
represent and use it
for planning of surface
flows
February 11, 2011
CNY ASPRS Feb 2011 Program
23
SCADA Information
► Each
portion of the
SCADA System has a
geographic component
► Using this you can link
the GIS interface (web
or desktop)

ALOHA and ADASHI
► ALOHA
is a tool from EPA that is used to
estimate plumes from toxic releases
► ADASHI takes the ALOHA tool further and not
only works with chemicals but also radiological
and biological plume models
► Both systems are integrated into the GIS and
can be displayed in a number of ways
► The weather station in the GIS Technology
Vehicle was chosen because of its compatibility
for these tools

Imagery
Imagery is key for
situational awareness in
any aspect of day to day
GIS
► Monroe County has a
few different products
for users depending on
the need
► There are numerous
image libraries
encompassing the years
from 1930 to 2009
►
February 11, 2011
CNY ASPRS Feb 2011 Program
27
Imagery and Emergency
Preparedness
During an emergency
most responders do not
know what the location
looks like
► Sometimes responders
cannot see the area and
that is where imagery
comes into play
► Having current imagery
keeps the scene
available for all to plan
on how to respond
►

Imagery Inside of Facilities
► Monroe
County also
purchased the Ipix
system
► Ipix allows for 360°
inside a building
► When linked to floor
plans responders can
virtually walk through
a building without
being inside
February 11, 2011
CNY ASPRS Feb 2011 Program

Imagery Partnerships
►
►
Through partnerships with
RIT and Pictometry we are
expanding on what imagery
can be used
During the Rochester City
Marathon this year, RIT flew
their Real Time WASP system
 These images were sent back
to the EOC for a better
situational awareness of the
event
 During the drill Monroe
County was being assessed on
interoperable communications
