Client: Ak-Chin Indian Community Project Type:GIS Project Status: Active
For the thirteeth consecutive year, the ISSR is assisting the Ak-Chin with data development to update and maintain a GIS that includes high-resolution aerial imagery, high-precision ground control, and infrastructure information for electric and water utilities. GIS Services has provided training to the Ak-Chin for ArcGIS, ArcIMS and with GPS technologies.
The Arizona Geographic Information Council has been growing since it was established in the late 1980's. Their board now consists of over 30 members from various State and private agencies. We branded and designed AGIC's new website to help their members communicate more efficiently and help increase public awareness.
Client: State Cartographer’s office Project Type:GIS, Web Project Status: Completed
This project has produced an interactive mapping site showing statewide aerial imagery for 2005, 2007 and 2010. This site uses ESRI Image Server to compress imagery for faster loading and viewing. For details on how to access and use the Arizona Imagery Service see http://sco.az.gov/imagery.htm.
Client: Arizona Indicators Project Type:GIS, Web Project Status: Active
GIS Services created a series of interactive maps to portray school and student performance for important education indicators such as AIMS and NAEP test scores, AZLearns and AYP ratings, along with graduation and dropout rates. The map visualizations feature accompanying charts and graphs and allow users to examine school performance over time using data ranges from 1998 to present.
Client: Arizona Governor Jan Brewer Project Type:GIS, Web Project Status: Completed
The Arizona Renewable Energy Mapping Project is a collaborative project between the Arizona State Land Department, Bureau of Land Management and ASU that was initiated to create a renewable energy mapping system to help facilitate the development of Arizona’s Renewable Energy resources in a coordinated manner.
Client: ASU Community Connect Project Type:GIS, Web Project Status: Active
This project utilizes a Google Maps mashup to highlight ASU involvement in the community. Each Google Map marker links to a descriptive webpage where community members can learn more about ASU's community embeddedness and outreach efforts.
Client: AZSITE Project Type:GIS, Web Project Status: Active
This project features an interactive mapping website to show archeological sites in the state. Developers must determine if there are archeological sites present before they begin excavation. The data for this project resides within an SQL database that utilizes ArcSDE to display statewide data for elevation and 7.5’ digital ortho quarter quads, 1:24K topo maps in the context of archeological sites. The SQL/SDE database at ASU mirrors one administered at University of Arizona and automatically updates each night to show any new sites in the mapping application.
Client: Equity Alliance Project Type:GIS, Web Project Status: Active
The Equity Alliance mapping application allows users to visually compare 2 different sets of data at the same time. Users can control variables that make up the four map types which include: Risk Ratio, Disability Prevalence, Under-Qualified Teachers, and Least Restrictive Environment.

Working with the ISSR's GIS Services group, the Arizona State Land Department, the Maricopa County Department of Emergency Management, Arizona's Government Information Technology Agency, and a task force that includes much of Arizona's emergency management community, Web Services is helping to build a common operating picture web application for emergency responders and the general public. AZ3D tracks emergency incidents and provides a state-wide view of critical resources, vulnerable populations, and state infrastructure.
Client: GRICUA Project Type:GIS Project Status: Active
In order to consolidate information for utilities within the Gila River Indian Community, GIS Services is working with GRICUA to convert CAD drawings and other information into a single easy-to-use GIS.
Client: School of Human Evolution and Social Change (SHESC) Project Type:GIS, Web Project Status: Active
This project is undertaken with faculty in the School of Human Evolution and Social Change (SHESC) and the School of Earth and Science Exploration (SESE) at ASU to develop GIS mapping services, applications and output files that can be used for curriculum development aimed at the middle-school and high-school levels, for field education for undergraduate students, and for a range of scientific users. These products will provide students an opportunity to explore and visualize interdisciplinary data relevant to paleoanthropology in the Hadar area by making data more accessible and easy to understand. Students will gain an understanding for geospatial data, how different mapping interfaces can be used, and ultimately, how the data and affiliated research supports scientific discovery and hypothesis testing.
Client: Learning Sciences Institute Project Type:Web Project Status: Completed
Web Services recently had the privilege of collaborating with Dr. Stephen N. Elliott, Gabriel Escontrías, Jr., and Robert Salinas to build a new website for the ASU Learning Sciences Institute. Like the ISSR, the new Learning Sciences Institute fosters interdisciplinary collaboration among ASU researchers and provides support for investigators who conduct externally-funded research.
Client: School of Human Evolution and Social Change (SHESC) Project Type:Survey Project Status: Completed
A web, telephone, and in-person survey of 45 neighborhoods in the Phoenix metropolitan area regarding the relationships between people and the natural environment. The sample was selected using the Maricopa County Tax Assessor property records. Respondents were mailed an invitation to take the survey online or complete it over the phone. Non-respondents were visited in-person to take the survey in their homes.
A mail and internet survey of 450 sheriffs and 450 police chiefs across the United States, regarding current policies and practices related to unauthorized (undocumented or illegal) immigrants in their jurisdictions. The sample was compiled from database and internet search results. Each respondent was mailed a survey and given the option to complete the paper survey, or take it online. A 55 percent response rate was achieved in each survey.
