Abstract:

The Maine Department of Transportation (Maine DOT) needed a tool to combine data warehouse (DW)and GIS technology to allow easy access to reliable information for system-wide query, analysis and reporting. As with most transportation agencies, Maine DOT is faced with changing needs, challenges, and limited resources. To be more responsive and to provide staff and managers alike with an ideal platform to deliver integrated transportation information to both internal and external customers, Maine DOT has turned to integrating DW and GIS technologies. This paper provides a detailed overview of Maine DOT's Transportation Information for Decision Enhancement (TIDE), a robust GIS-linked DW system. Specifically reviewed and discussed are the inherent technical issues involved in a project of this nature.
