Richmond, Virginia – Timmons Group, a leader in geospatial and engineering services, has been selected to provide application programming and information technology architecture support to the government of Montgomery County, Virginia. The project is an extension of data model and data conversion services provided to the County by Timmons Group during previous contracts. This project will enhance the county’s existing geographic information system (GIS) capabilities by exposing Internet and Intranet portals to their constituent base including internal county departments, the towns of Blacksburg and Christiansburg Virginia and county residents. The solution will be built on ESRI’s ArcSDE and ArcIMS and will leverage Timmons Group’s custom .NET ArcIMS API. Geospatial decision support (GDS) capabilities will be provided by linking other, non-spatial databases, to spatial features for exposure through established portals. The mapping portals will integrate property inspection information from NovaLIS Technology’s Land Development Office (LDO) and property appraisal information from Tyler Technologies/CLT appraisal system. All developed portals will be built on a common framework and will access common geospatial repositories to ease administration overhead. Timmons Group worked closely with Montgomery County’s GIS staff to develop an information technology system and security architecture that will maximize data security, portal mapping performance and, ultimately, end-user experience.
