The City of La Porte has invested in GIS for many years, increasing its impact on the City year by year. How does GIS benefit the residents of the City? How is GIS integrated into the City? See examples from City staff below. As a global society, we have embraced GIS and GPS technology as a part of our lives as a source of information, and even our "daily valet". GIS provides the economy with many benefits: Saving in time & fuel, Increased purchasing efficiency, more customers, & more jobs. This technology has established a baseline for return on investment. source: MultiBrief: Geographic information systems show their true economic value (multibriefs.com)

At the request of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District, John MiIner Associates, Inc. (JMA) conducted a National Historic Preservation Act Section 110 compliance investigation for the Chicago District. The work entailed preparation of an inventory of electronically scanned and geo-referenced historic maps and aerial photographs that could be used in planning projects undertaken by the district in support of its major missions: flood control, shoreline protection, navigation, environmental protection, and emergency management. A total of 3,501 historic maps, map sections, and aerial photographs were inventoried, electronically scanned, and geo-referenced to facilitate integration with the current level of GIS mapping used by the district. Another 182 aerial photographs were inventoried and electronically scanned, but not geo-referenced, due to district priorities and funding limitations. This ARRA funded Task Order employed 23 specialists.

A US Geological Survey Next Generation Water Observing Systems (NGWOS) Research and Development 'testbed' site was established near the Kankakee River in LaPorte County, IN for the purpose of quantifying the effects of groundwater and surface water interactions on the fate and transport of excess nutrients, specifically nitrate. A Fiber Optic Distributed Temperature Sensing (FO-DTS) survey was conducted within the stream reach adjacent to a well cluster to pinpoint areas of discrete groundwater discharge to the river. DTS data were used to identify locations where longer-term deployments of vertical temperature profilers (VTP) were conducted to indirectly estimate vertical groundwater discharge (m/d) at the shallow streambed interface through time using collected temperature time-series. Point measurements of streambed thermal properties were made using a Tempos thermal property analyzer where the DTS survey suggested discrete groundwater seepage was occurring. This was done in efforts to support the future modeling of groundwater discharge rates (1D, i.e., L/T) using collected vertical temperature profiles from installed VTP's. VTP data from Kankakee are still actively being collected so these data are not included in this data release, however; thermal properties of the sediments are included. Seepage meter measurements were made at select locations on the streambed to better understand flux occurring at the streambed interface using direct measurements of discharge. When these meters were emplaced piezometers were installed next to them for determining vertical hydraulic gradients. This information was used to determine estimates of vertical hydraulic conductivity when combined with measured groundwater discharge rates from the seepage meters. Piezometers were pumped and instantaneous water quality information was collected using water quality sondes (YSI EXO2) in the field. Continuous water level information was also collected (In-Situ LevelTroll and AquaTroll) in some of the piezometers to monitor diurnal changes that might occur during the deployment period. This data release includes 5 compressed folders: 1) FO_DTS_PROCESSED_KANKAKEE.zip includes all processed FO-DTS data including a local readme.txt file that explains the contents in detail. 2) FO_DTS_RAW_KANKAKEE.zip includes all raw FO-DTS data including a local readme.txt file that explains the contents in detail. 3) SEEPAGE_AND_GRADIENTS_KANKAKEE.zip includes all the information related to piezometers and seepage meters including a local readme.txt file that explains the contents in detail. This folder also contains data on the thermal properties of the streambed sediments. 4) KANKAKEE_DTSCABLELINE.zip includes an ESRI ArcGIS shapefile and associated files that show the FODTS line layout as interpolated between GPS points collected along the line for georeferencing 5) KANKAKEE_MEASUREMENT_LOCATIONS includes an ESRI ArcGIS shapefile and associated files that show locations where measurements contained in this data release were made.

SUBDISTRICTS is a polygon layer showing the INDOT management subdistricts. The mapping units include the district name and district number codes and the subsidtrict names. Revisions were made to the Subdistrict boundaries in both LaPorte and Seymour Districts. The changes to Seymour were reviewed and approved by Kathy Eaton-McKalip, and became effective January 1, 2011 . The changes for LaPorte were submitted, reviewed and approved by Oswald, Derek effective 5/24/2011.Revision to the Fort Wayne SubDistrict boundaries effective July 1 2012. The Wabash Unit 4 has been moved from the Warsaw Subdistrict to the Elkhart SubDistrict as Unit 2. The revised boundaries was provided by Eleachea Sanders vie e-mail dated Friday, June 08, 2012.There has been a recent changes to the Sub-District Boundaries in LaPorte. The Plymouth Sub is being removed and the Units have been Absorbed into LaPorte and Winamac. These changes were completed per request from Derek Oswald in e-mail dated 1/8/2013. New Changes to Fort Wayne Subdistricts. Starting the week of January 20th (1/20/2013), the Fort Wayne Highway Maintenance (HM) section will be adjusting from five subdistricts to four. The subdistricts that remain will be Elkhart, Fort Wayne, Wabash, and Bluffton. The units of the former Angola subdistrict will now be part of the Fort Wayne and Elkhart subdistricts. Angola unit and Waterloo unit will be part of Fort Wayne. Brimfield unit will be part of Elkhart. In addition to the above changes, the Laud unit that is currently part of the Fort Wayne subdistrict will be making a reporting change as well. Laud will now be part of the Wabash subdistrict . The shop at Angola will continue operations in the subdistrict facility. Subdistricts are now derived from the DOTGIS.UNITS layer which was last modified July 20, 2020 to accomodate WMS naming conventions.
