1. 1 GIS Activities of the State Emergency Response Team Richard Butgereit GIS Administrator 850-413-9907 richard.butgereit@em.myflorida.com

2. 2 Some activities to cover… 1.US National Grid 2.Virtual USA 3.Geospatial Assessment Tool for Operations and Response – GATOR 4.KML for Google Earth 5.E-Plan 6.Incident Mapper

3. 3 United States National Grid Lessons learned have taught us that standardized grids are needed for positional reporting. As far back as Hurricane Andrew, problems were recognized for emergency managers...

4. 4 Florida Adopts the USNG USNG was adopted by the FFCA FDEM to adopt the USNG in the States CEMP Florida Fire College, Florida Fire Chiefs Association, FL National Guard to develop curriculum and instructor manuals Modules incorporated into Firefighter II curriculum

5. 5 FEMA Adopts the USNG Near term priority approved by Administrator Fugate Establish a standard for FEMA operational maps using the National Grid

6. 6 What’s wrong with current systems? We already have… – Latitude/Longitude – Township/Range/Section – Street Address and Zip – “Bingo” Grids

7. 7 Latitude/Longitude Multiple formats are confusing DD -85.990151, 30.272240 DM -85 59.409089, 30.16.334386 DMS 85 59’24.545”W, 30 16’20.063”N All the same location!!!

8. 8 How far is a second anyway? What is the distance from…. 85 59’24.545”W, 30 16’20.063”N To here…. 85 59’26.292”W, 30 16’14.546”N

9. 9 Township/Range/Section Township/Range/Section grid from the Public Lands Survey System is an important and good system… – basis of land ownership records – been in use for over 180 years

10. 10 Township/Range/Section But a perfect section really doesn’t exist irregular in coastal areas too large to meet needs of ground crews

11. 11 Street Address and Zip Problematic due to… – rural routes – post office boxes – House numbers missing or obscured

12. 12 What do you do when the SIGNS are gone?

13. 13 What do you do when the ROADS are gone?

17. 17 Developed by the United States Army Corps of Engineers in the 1940s A position on the Earth is referenced in the UTM system by the UTM zone, and the easting and northing coordinate pair. Abbreviated as “UTM” 16R 766000 3364820 Universal Transverse Mercator

18. 18 is the geocoordinate standard used by North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) for locating points on the earth. is derived from the UTM grid system, but uses a different labeling convention. Abbreviated as “MGRS” 16R GU 66000 64820 Military Grid Reference System

19. 19 Practically identical to MGRS. Difference is the datum – MGRS uses WGS84, which USNG uses NAD 83 Coordinates reported identical. Abbreviated as “USNG” 16R GU 66000 64820 United States National Grid

20. 20 USNG it has the advantage of being easily plotted on USGS topographic maps by using a simple "right and then up" method instead of having to plot from right to left when using latitude and longitude in the Western Hemisphere. The coordinates are also easily translated to distance since they are in meters. Thus the distance between two coordinates can quickly be determined in the field.

22. 22 16R GU 66000 64820 How to read USNG 100,000 Meter Grid – identification for regional areas Grid Coordinates – Easting and Northing position Grid Zone Designation – for a world-wide unique address, identifies the longitude zone number and the latitude band letter

23. 23 16R GU 66000 64820 16R17R Truncate for locality just like you don’t have to dial an area code to make a local call… all Florida locations will be 16R or 17R

24. 24 16R GU 66000 64820 16R17R Truncate for locality 100,000 meter zone designation may be dropped when working locally

25. 25 Truncate for less precision… Locates within 1000 meters66 64 6600 6482 Locates within 10 meters 660 648 Locates within 100 meters 66000 64820 Locates within 1 meter 16R GU 66000 64820

26. 26 USNG Easily scaleable Pin-point and cell based locational reporting “Grid within a Grid”

27. 27 Global Positioning Systems I have GPS……..why do I need to care about any of this? – USNG can be used with GPS – GPS supplements USNG – USNG will work when your GPS won’t

28. 28 USNG and GPS Most GPS units explicitly support USNG as an option for units If you choose USNG, you must also choose NAD 83 as your datum (or technically, you haven’t chosen USNG) You may also choose MGRS with NAD 83 to be the functional equivalent of USNG

29. 29 Support for USNG http://www.floridadisaster.org/gis/usng –tools and instructions for GIS staff FDEM’s GATOR –new mapping website with USNG tools FDEP’s Incident Mapper –simple Google Maps mashup with USNG tools GeoPDF’s –new PDF formats have GIS capabilities, including USNG support

30. 30 USNG in ArcGIS 9.1 USNG National Grid Tools Repackaging of… –Military Analyst –Product line tool set (PLTS) USNG Locational Toolbar Available from ArcScripts –Less complicated, easier to use

31. 31 USNG in ArcGIS 9.2/9.3 Integrated… – Go to X,Y Tool – Identify –Graticules

32. 32 Military Analyst in ArcGIS 9.2/9.3 USNG coordinates may easily be added to a feature class. NAR-C is proper NAD 83 choice - “North American Reference CONUS”

33. 33 Military Analyst in ArcGIS 9.2/9.3 USNG coordinates added to a feature class.
