OUR MISSION

The Geographic Information Systems division’s primary function is to provide mapping and spatial analyses to city departments and offer self-serve applications and data to the public to empower them to make data-driven decisions.

GIS activities focus principally on:

• Creating, managing, updating, and enhancing database layers of geographically located features and corresponding feature information;
• Creating maps and statistical data from the database layers;
• Using spatial models to perform analyses on real world problems;
• Supporting city staff in their efforts to use GIS application programs;
• Assisting city staff with GIS and mapping needs for special projects; and
• Providing the public with self-serve web maps and open data
