Hennepin County GIS FTP Site• FTP site now available for sharing files between the county and its partners
• Intention for site use is for both project-level data and routine sharing• One secured account per partner agency has been established, as well as a general
folder that all agencies can access• Two-way uploads are permitted
• Hennepin County’s Survey Division will continue to distribute cadastral data on a monthly basis (Tom Bushey)
• Many private and public agencies have had accounts preemptively created for them. Contact me if you’d like your login information.
![Page 5: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Data Sharing• Hennepin County has an inventory of data layers that can be shared with interested
agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis
• ~25 layers were being shared with city contacts via our Survey Division’s monthly distributiono The layers were based on demand after asking city GIS staff what they’d like
from the county data-wise
• Hennepin County will continue a monthly GIS data share through the general folder on the new FTP siteo Ideas for layers that would be useful to your organization are welcome
• Our shareable layers will be distributed to the group in a follow-up email
![Page 6: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Metro Parks, Trails & Bikeways Collaborative• Initial aggregation of the data occurred earlier this summer
• Schema revisions (v1.1) are currently under review• Data requests will be sent out to park/trail agencies shortly after new schema is
approved • Cities, Three Rivers Park District, DNR, etc.
• Hosting and distribution will follow other metro datasets (i.e. MRCC)• Will eventually be accessible on the Geospatial Commons
• Release to the Public is TBD
Project Information: https://metrogis.org/projects/park-and-trail.aspx

• Parks/trails data are present for each county
• Very good geometric (feature) coverage in Hennepin County
• Data to be distributed to park/trail agencies for review
• Similar review, submittalprocess as the Hennepin County bikeway data model
• Your agency’s participationin this project is importantand appreciated!

Local Update of Census Addresses (LUCA)LUCA is an opportunity offered to tribal, state, and local governments to review the United States Census Bureau’s address list for their jurisdiction prior to the 2020 Census.• The Census Bureau sent out invitations to participate in LUCA this July
• Hennepin County recently sent out email asking cities whether they are participating in LUCA or not
• Hennepin County will maintain a page on Basecamp software for tracking the project timeline and sharing workflows, issues, and information with cities
Rough Timeline:July, 2017: Determine which cities Hennepin County will be working with
October, 2017: Census-sponsored training workshops will be held
February, 2018: Address lists will be sent from Census Bureau to jurisdictions (120 days to send updated lists)
Q4, 2019 – Q1, 2020: Materials received back from Bureau, including field canvassing results. Jurisdictions can make appeals for corrections. New construction locations should also be submitted to Census Bureau.
April 1, 2020: Census Day

Stormwater Data• Hennepin County has been collecting stormwater GIS data from cities and
watershed districts since Spring of 2017
• Data have supported assessment of Hennepin County Regional Railroad Authority (HCRRA) corridor stormwater infrastructure. i.e. where is the water coming from and where is it going in the proximity of HCRRA corridorso Stormwater Infrastructure assessmento Water quality assessment
• Aside from HCRRA project, data have been useful to our internal staff for:o general analysis and mapping: locations of assets, ownership, flow direction, etc.
• The gathering of this data is helping to build momentum and feasibility for the metro project
![Page 10: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Stormwater data have been collected from 18 cities within and near the county this summer
• Data schemas exist in many different formats
• However some basic, useful commonalities are present:
-Asset type (catch basin, main, apron)-Pipe material (concrete, metal, plastic)-Pipe shape (circular, box)-Pipe diameter-Invert elevations-Install date-Ownership-More..
![Page 11: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
New Web Portal• New, public-facing website• One-stop shop for accessing data, maps, applications, GIS news, and contact information• Does not replace our Open Data site• Link to Portal: https://gis.hennepin.us/home/• May start pushing HCGUG content to this site

Group DiscussionCounty & metro interests have been expressed, now…
What’s important to you and your agency?
• How can this group better serve the collective interests of all attendees? (specifically municipalities and private sector agencies)
• Ideas for HCGUG meeting topics or structure
• Ideas for successful collaboration outside of HCGUG

Tree Inventory Data Collection
Hennepin County GIS Technical Users Group, August 3, 2016
Reasons for having an inventory:• No idea what trees we have on our
property and what condition it is in.
• Trees are infrastructure that need maintenance.
• Proactive vs. reactive approach.
• Provides a common language with external agencies.
• Data-driven decision making.

FOSS
Along the way we faced a decision…
![Page 26: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Platforms Considered (final eval in 2013)
• Esri GeoPortal
• GeoNetwork
• GeoNode
• CKAN
• Also:
• Dspace
• OpenGeoPortal
![Page 27: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Value of Open Source
![Page 28: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Strategy
• More than enough investment in Esri
• Open data needs to be in more than one format – not all proprietary
• It can still fit into the “ecosystem” and not be exactly like all the other pieces of the puzzle
DATA
![Page 29: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

First decision: Scope
• No budget, limited time
• Relatively rigid scope:
• Organization publishers
• Free and open
• Cover at least part of MN
• Non-spatial OK if:
• Has a mappable foreign key
• Contains coordinates or geocodable data
![Page 31: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Metadata = Quality
• How much is enough?
• Must be able to determine a dataset’s fitness for a given purpose
Next step: Quality
![Page 32: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
What do you mean, “Frankenstein”?
• CKAN didn’t have everything out of the box
• We already had a working data warehouse system, and didn’t want to change that
• Content Management (Drupal) & Feedback (Disqus) required bolt-ons

Making things fit
• Already a hard sell to change
• Why rearrange your data warehouse when you can build a bridge from it to your portal?
![Page 35: Agenda - Geographic information systems | Hennepin County · 9/5/2017 · agencies (i.e. data that aren’t available on Open Data) on a monthly basis ... • CKAN didn’t have](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050412/5f88c89cdee39b1288359684/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Documentation – Drupal. Feedback - Disqus
• Documentation
• Needed a “news”, help, etc
• Drupal plugin made sense
• Feedback
• Significant downside of old portals
• People want to connect, give each other advice…and complain!
• But wait…that’s two authentication systems

Flexibility – normally an asset
• Obviously the flexibility of CKAN was appealing
• At some point, this might make you feel a bit stretched too thin

“We need a tool to create this metadata!”
• Creating metadata for each “resource” turned out to be like floating paper clips
• The team was comfortable just hacking the .xml examples
• Who knew not everyone would be up for that?

“Wait…we need unique URLs…”
• What if more than one county wants to publish a parcel dataset?
• Naming convention? Abbreviations?
• Settled on a publisher prefix, aka:
• us-mn-co-rice-plan-parcels
• us-mn-co-dakota-plan-parcels

“Can we publish CAD data?”
• One of our first local partners
• Didn’t realize it was in demand
• Had multiple problems:
• Formats we said we’d allow but weren’t fully implemented
• New formats that clearly fit the scope

Parcels
• Standard on hold until Address Standard approved
• Collecting, standardizing, and aggregating
86 counties collected
Working on aggregating and routine collections
• Full aggregate available to government agencies only; counties have asked the state not to share parcels obtained for their counties.
• This approach hinders efforts to achieve a statewide, shared parcel layer.

Boundary Update Project
• Background – MN boundary data layers are out of date and need to be updated. More current and accurate authoritative information is available.
• MnGeo will lead an effort to identify stakeholders, authoritative data stewards, and resources required to develop, document and evaluate a process for updating, aligning and maintaining statewide geospatial boundary data layers going forward.
• Outcomes – stakeholders and authoritative data identified, process, updated PLSS, process for other related layers
• Discussion - What role can the GAC play? User Groups? • Committee or Workgroup?
