13 5/9/2012http://www.indiana.edu/~gisdata/sanborn.html 13 UITS received $4,416 from IndianaView Consortium in summer of 2011 to : Archive the Sanborn scanned pdf and tif images on IU’s Scholarly Data Archive (SDA) – 11,517 distinct maps Restrict access to copyright protected images (13% of maps) Provide access to the images from the Indiana Spatial Data Portal (ISDP) Provide metadata regarding the Sanborn image dataset

14 5/9/2012http://www.indiana.edu/~gisdata/sanborn.html 14 Hierarchal, near-line storage service Uses High Performance Storage System Fast disk cache of 150 terabytes Two tape libraries with 5.7 petabytes capacity Libraries geographically distributed Disaster tolerance – mirror data copies Data storage costs a fraction of spinning disk cost IN optical fiber network

15 Each image stored in the SDA has an entry in a SQL Server Database Each entry has a URL to the file on SDA Each entry has a spatial footprint (UX, UY, LX, LY) Used IndianaMap layer with Indiana towns and cities boundaries for footprint Used Sanborn codes to determine IN city or town 5/9/2012 15 http://www.indiana.edu/~gisdata/sanborn.html
