The challenge
Over the years a municipality's GIS layers spread across many maps and apps, and staff in engineering, planning and operations have to know where to look for each one. Meanwhile, plans and surveys arrive as DWG files, and converting them to GIS by hand takes days.
The solution
We set up HAMMER CITY on the city's ArcGIS Online, with sign-in through the city's own accounts: grouped layers, a legend, click-to-identify, search by address, plan and lot or block and parcel, PDF printing with the city emblem, CAD files on the map and coordinate entry. Engineering staff received CADabra accounts for converting AutoCAD plans into GIS layers with checks and export, and employees got a quick guide.
The outcome
City staff open one map in Hebrew and find an address, a lot or a plan without knowing which app the layer lives in. A plan that arrives as DWG is checked and converted into GIS layers in CADabra.
