Data Management of Watershed Information and Data Enterprise Repository Implementation at Fort Hood, Texas

Abstract

In late September of 2001 the Natural Resources Branch at Fort Hood, Texas, funded the operational implementation of the Data Enterprise Repository (DER). The DER was an Enterprise Geographic Information System designed to house GIS data collections at Fort Hood and to provide intranet access to that data for authorized users. The DER was also intended to provide a storage location for remotely sensed data gathered from weather station platforms located in Fort Hood's training areas. The implementation of the DER system involved the efforts of ERDC/CERL and the Texas Research Institute for Environmental Studies (TRIES). The objective of this report is to document those efforts and explain the lessons learned throughout the process. The report concludes with a summary of the current status of the implementation, and provides recommendations on future directions.
