Project Overview
T&M was contracted by the New Jersey Highlands Council to develop a Regional Interactive Environmental Resource Inventory to provide users with the ability to select a customized study area within the Highlands Region, and view and analyze any number of approximately 200 GIS datasets (e.g. wetland coverage, flood hazard area, prime agricultural areas, etc.) within the same application. Based on data layers selected, the Regional Interactive Environmental Resource Inventory provides maps and automatically-generated text to describe the extent of features within the study area.
The Regional Interactive ERI (https://www.highlandseri.com/) utilizes the Esri JavaScript SDK and consumes services from ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Server and public agencies. It provides robust functionality and a clear and easily understood user interface, including the ability to query and analyze data at a variety of geographies within the Highlands region including individual and multiple parcels; census block, block group, or tract; or by watershed, Highlands Preservation and Planning Areas, municipality, or the Highlands Region.
The T&M team prepared user manuals and trained Highlands Council staff on the use of the ERI and is currently providing cloud hosting and support/enhancement services.
