Staudenmeier thanked the county departments heads and elected officials for keeping their offices up to date. “I am proud to say this board of commissioners is committed to that and I think we have demonstrated that at various times, especially with the 911 system and with this product.”
“One of the challenges that we face as a board of commissioners is keeping up with technology as it continuously changes and we all know how rapid that is,” commissioners Chairman Frank J. Smith said that costs of the new system design, data server and Amazon Cloud service are not solely attributed to the Map Viewer as they are used for the county’s entire GIS system. The costs associated with the new program include a $38,450 contract with GeographIT for the Map Viewer, a $13,910 contract for system design, a new GIS data server for $7,030 and a $1,200 one-time, up-front cost to use the Amazon Cloud Service, plus about $300 a month for the service, which may change slightly based on demand. Smith said that is how long it will take until the public access computers are updated to run the new Map Viewer. The Parcel Locator will still be available for a few weeks at until it is shut down.

“We also had other needs, one of which was to bring up the version of our software so that we can support some things going on in other departments,” Smith said. Smith said that some time about 2009, Esri stopped supporting the software that powered the old parcel locator. “The software that the parcel locator was built on at its time was the preeminent internet mapping software of its time, but like any technology, that quickly became outdated,” Smith said.
