1 GIS /CAD Project Workflow ` New York State Association of Professional Land Surveyors 56th Annual Surveyors Conference & Exhibition Verona, New York Presented by John Cooke and Kevin R. Zelinsky, GISP, CMS Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc Wellington Branch Drive, Suite 100 Gainesville, Virginia (Main Number) Remington & Vernick Engineers 232 Kings Highway East Haddonfield, New Jersey (Main Number)
2 Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc., a Davey Tree company, the leading natural & cultural resources consultant in Northern Virginia, assists developers and public works agencies with the permitting process and creates innovative solutions to water quality issues affecting the Chesapeake Bay region. CivilTraining, LLC A division of Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc. Provides training, implementation and consulting services to the Civil Engineering, Surveying and GIS / Mapping communities. Remington & Vernick Engineers and Affiliates Remington & Vernick Engineers and Affiliates are a full service consulting firm providing professional services in all areas of engineering, planning, and technical support for over a century. 2

7 Project Description: Project Proposal This demonstration will focus on a tree inventory project as part of a Community Forestry Master Plan in the Borough of Collingswood, New Jersey. This plan is in compliance with the Borough s Shade Tree Advisory Council and encompasses approximately square miles, of which more than 60 acres are Knight s Park (public park), and ultimately 6,000 trees. It should be noted that although we are describing a tree inventory project throughout this seminar, the principles and techniques can be applied to any inventory project that requires the collection of a large amount of data (e.g., storm sewers, sanitary sewers, cadastral mapping, and water distribution systems). 7
8 Project Proposal Project Criteria: 1. Collingswood Shade Tree Advisory Council needed a tree inventory of all trees along right of ways and other properties owned or maintained by the Borough 2. The tree inventory will be used to update the Borough s Community Forestry Plan 3. The Forestry Plan will assist the Public Works Department with maintenance needs and enhance future tree selection for new/replacement plantings 4. The critical component of the plan will be the correct maintenance of the inventory after the project is complete 5. Deliver the surveyed trees as a feature class within a File Geodatabase with appropriate metadata 6. Any/all photo locations will also be linked to the GIS database for additional reference 8
9 Project Proposal Project Technical Requirements: 1. Locate (GPS coordinates to nearest street address) all trees within the Borough (approximately 1,230 acre area) within public parks and right ofways 2. Identify type/species of tree, approximate size (diameter of trunk, canopy spread, estimated height), health and/or overall condition 3. Calculate summary statistics for all of the surveyed trees Proximity to overhead/underground utilities, traffic signals, signage, etc. Immediate maintenance needed due to insects, disease, lightning, etc. Impact of root system on curb/sidewalk Hazard potential (hanging limbs, extensive dead wood, etc.) 4. Determine the number of trees to be removed for public safety 5. Create maps depicting removed trees, as well as remaining trees All trees given a unique identification number based on GPS location and/or other criteria to facilitate the GIS mapping process 9
