| RGIS data |
 |
|
Arranged according to
fifty or so themes
which cover the following areas
|
> |
• land use
• the MOS (land use method), which
is the RGIS's geographic system of reference
• administrative boundaries, various
divisions
demographic and socio-economic data
• transport networks
• environmental data, water and draining,
facilities
• relief, satellite images, digital
orthophotography |
| The RGIS and the Internet |
|
The initial interactive maps
of the RGIS were incorporated into the IAU-îdF website in 2000 :
cycle paths, catchment areas and regional satellite images...
The other areas of activity of the RGIS to be put on line shortly are: land
use, waste, extracts of the 1999 regional digital orthophotography
| Hardware and software |
|
|
•
|
The RGIS is operated
via a data service and 17 Unix workstations shared within the Institute |
| |
|
•
|
RGIS has
a total storage capacity of over 100 Gigabytes |
|
•
|
The software
used is Arc/Info (15 licences) and ArcView (18 licences) of ESRI and
Oracle of Oracle Corporation |
|
•
|
All researchers
of the IAURIF now have access to the RGIS via a high-quality Windows
application which is run on their PCs |
| |
| RGIS assistant, Visiaurif |
|
To meet the requirements of its researchers,
the IAURIF has created the RGIS Assistant, a range of PC-based and user-friendly
tools for dayly exploitation of the RGIS :
|
•
|
display and consultation on screen
of more than 100 interactive maps (Visiaurif tool) |
|
•
|
automatic
cartography based on around sixty themes (regional maps, multi-communities
maps), statistical sheets on communes, CartoMOS, DensiMOS |
| |
|
•
|
various
information |
These tools are also used to assist the dissemination of RGIS data to
regional authorities and numerous other regional partners.
| The "dedicated GIS" |
|
|
•
|
The RGIS
consultation tool created by IAURIF assists the formation of "dedicated
GIS", covering specific themes such as habitat and accommodation,
tourism, etc. |
| |
|
•
|
The
implementation of "dedicated GIS" enables solid partnerships
to be set up and the organisation, creation and regular updating
of specialised databases for the long term |
| |
|
•
|
The "dedicated GIS" launched in 1999 and 2000 (Habitat,Tourism)
will be gradually complemented by geographic information systems
devoted to other themes (Nature reserves, sports facilities, etc.)
|
| |
| |
| RGIS partnerships |
|
One of the founding principles of the RGIS was the setting up of partnerships
with : regional administrations organisations planning departments ...in
order to share information exchange files, update and collect new data collectively
Agreements have been settled with :
|
|
the regional departments of the state
|
> |
Planning and Development,
Environment, Industry and Cultural Affairs |
|
regional bodies
|
> |
Ile-de-France Transport
Union, Seine-Normandy water agency, etc... |
|
regional nature reserves
|
> |
Vexin Français
and the Haute Vallée de Chevreuse |
|
departmental councils
|
> |
Hauts-de-Seine, Seine-et-Marne,
Val de Marne |
|
state-owned companies
|
> |
EDF(electricity),
RATP (public transport), SNCF (national railways) etc... |
Moreover, many research centres use RGIS files
for studies commissioned by the Ile-de-France local authorities.
