Presentation: Special Achievement in Geographical Information System (GIS) Award. Special Achievement in Geographical Information System (GIS) Award was presented at the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) Conference in July to Aaron Karl, City of Brookings, and Evan Henningsen and Marshall Beynon, Brookings Municipal Utilities. In 2020, the City of Brookings implemented a Geographical Information System (GIS) and partnered with Brookings Municipal Utilities and Brookings County on a small governmental agency agreement with ESRI for the geospatial software. The City's goal was to give internal and external users a better and more complete experience with geospatial data. By fully utilizing the ArcGIS Hub and Web App Builder, a more user friendly geospatial product is available to the public via the City of Brookings GIS Portal webpage. Internally, communication across departments and sharing of geospatial data has increased efficiencies, led to more detailed analysis and better decisions based upon the data. The City of Brookings and Brookings Municipal Utilities has migrated data from CAD to GIS as well as incorporated data from water, sanitary sewer, streets, rental properties, zoning, recreation, storm sewer and much more. In particular, the use of GIS for density analysis and site suitability studies have helped create a more sustainable and resilient community. 179 2"d Quarter CFO Report.
