About The GIS Division
Our Mission
The mission of the GIS division is to provide the City government with access to comprehensive and accurate geosptial data as well as the tools necessary to utilize such information for improved problem solving and making informed decisions.
What We Do
We provide training, spatial data creation and management, geospatial analysis and GIS support services to all departments within the City. Additionally, the GIS Division develops, maintains and supports internal and public facing GIS web applications to provide better services to employees and citizens.
Data collection and development is the core of any GIS system. City GIS staff are proficient in the use of GPS (Global Positioning System) technology. This is used to accurately map city assets such as fire hydrants, water meters, manholes and even endangered Spider Lilies found along the beautiful rivers that flow in and around Columbia. This data collection not only serves to put a point on a map, but also provides information about the location. What type of fire hydrant is it? What flow rate does it have? When was it last serviced? This type of spatial and attribute information is the foundation of the City's work order management system and serves to insure City workers are able to complete work orders and address citizen concerns as they arise. Location, location, location... Everything has one and GPS and GIS technologies tie these locations to many of the City services relied on by the citizens of Columbia.
