May 21, 2003—Hummingbird Ltd., a developer of enterprise information management solutions (EIMS), was recently honored with a Best Solutions Award from the Government Technology Conference (GTC) West 2003. Hummingbird received the award for the Hummingbird Enterprise for ESRI solution deployed at the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District (NCWCD). The GTC’s Best Solutions Awards recognize customized government solutions that have resulted in significant benefits such as reduced costs and increased efficiencies.
The NCWCD is a public agency that provides water for agricultural, municipal, domestic, and industrial uses in northeastern Colorado. The District staff, including Engineers, Right of Way specialists, and Operations and Maintenance crews, produces and manages a large number of electronic documents concerning specific facilities.
Hummingbird Enterprise for ESRI, an integrated solution with ESRI’s ArcIMS software, links the NCWCD’s geographic data through a Web-based mapping interface, by connecting the document management technologies of Hummingbird Enterprise with NCWCD’s geographic information system (GIS), ArcIMS. Documents can be referenced to projects through text-based searches as well as GIS searches enabling employees to access and manage geographic data records easily and efficiently, improving service to residents.
All geographic-based, business-critical information can immediately be linked through one Web interface, not only to data, but also to a wide range of documents, such as photographs, engineering drawings, field notes, and digitized audio and video.
