Risk Management in the Pentagon Renovation Project
You know that renovations to the Pentagon were necessary because of the 9/11
tragedy, but did you know that the Pentagon Renovation Project actually began
years before? The renovation work that was days from completion before 9/11
is credited with protecting many lives that day, and Bentley software has
been identified as a very important part of the Pentagon Renovation. This
project demonstrates how using the right engineering tools to identify and
address weaknesses before an emergency minimizes the impact of the situation
and improves the recovery time. This fascinating session reveals why
all of the software you choose for the management of your facility is key when
considering your
emergency preparedness.

Fire Department Response Drawings
With rapidly changing technology and demands of critically increasing research
for major universities, we're all charged with instituting and maintaining new
methods to lessen the chances for loss of facilities and critical research. One
method we use here at the University of Washington to meet this need is to
have readily available for emergency personnel, such as the local fire department,
detailed colored CAD drawings clearly showing the major systems that will either
put out a fire or make it easy for fire officials to find critical systems, such
as shutoff valves and electrical power shutoffs. These drawings clearly show
the building floor plans with all stairwells and fire sprinkler valves. Also,
they will eventually show where, how much, and what type of chemicals are used
and stored in the buildings. Another important issue is to have someone available
24/7 who has keys and knows the facility personally to avoid mistakes.
Knowing these few details of a facility and having this information available
can mean the difference between quick recovery or total loss. Emergency personnel
will tend to make a proactive effort if they know the score. Otherwise, they
may just take a defensive posture and secure the surrounding facilities.
Want to see what we did and how we did it? Come spend some time with us, and
we'll be glad to show you!

Extending Space Management with GIS
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology
has used a CAD-based system for facilities management and planning since the
late 1980s. Currently the Institute is undergoing
an effort to enhance these abilities with the use of GIS. The legacy CAD system
has basic GIS functionality but is severely limited when compared to today's
robust applications. In addition to increased functionality, an implementation
of GIS will also allow for further integration of planning, utility, and other
facility-related information.
The presentation will discuss steps taken to implement the new system, including
hurdles encountered and benefits gained, and will conclude with a review of new
tools available after the migration. These tools range from the use of desktop
applications, such as AutoCAD/ArcGIS, to web applications utilizing standards,
such as XML, OGC, and SVG. Concepts discussed will include floor plan-coordinated
systems (relative vs. real world), CAD to GIS conversion (Autodesk vs. ESRI),
desktop GIS and web applications,
and web "services" and connectors.
Technical topics will include ArcGIS 8.x, ArcIMS, AutoCAD/AutoCAD Map 4, INSITE
and Oracle, and Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG).

GIS
Without data, you cannot have a GIS. But what do you do when the data needed
is not always in one department or even one data set? Data sharing and distribution
are possible using the Internet. You will see Autodesk Mapguide applications
IMAGINiT developed with some of their customers that do just that.

Direction & Vision of the NCCC
The original vision of the NCCC is current and focused, but the implementation
of this vision is constantly evolving. This session will present the near-term
vision from the Executive Board for the next few years of the conference. What
types of sessions are most helpful to our attendees? What feedback are we getting
on the conference? What changes in the format of the conference are being considered
for the future? How can we assist our attendees further in the execution of their
jobs? These questions will be presented and discussed during this open presentation
on Friday.

Campus Operating Situations - How to Prepare a CAD System to Meet the Needs
Facilities Management operations constantly numerous situations where the
need for data, building plans, or mapping is important in developing solutions.
This
presentation will examine some of the operational situations that occur in a
university operating environment, the types of material required to be prepared
to meet such needs, and some of the means of accessing or distributing the material.

Project Tracking
Over the last 14 months, we have customized and implemented a software package
that tracks project information from inception to closeout, including drawings
and their revisions. We use this software within our own department, and, with
the use of a website, we collaborate with the outside general contractors, architects,
the clients of the buildings and other campus departments. This includes meeting
minutes, the online routing of Requests for Information, and collaborative online
review of some submittals, drawings, and other important documentation.

Situation Preparedness
"Using CAD Resources as an Aid in Developing Disaster Plans in a Healthcare
Environment." Events
of 9/11 have necessitated facilities managers update their disaster plans
to deal with new contingencies. This presentation will use depictions of actual
CAD resources that one Medical Center uses as they prepare for a new way
of
looking at their facility.

Campus Wayfinding on the Web at The Ohio State University
The Ohio State University's Physical Facilities Department has developed
a web-based application for campus wayfinding that will be offered to students,
faculty,
staff, parents, and visitors. The system was developed using the current
map
information already maintained by the department and with links into Oracle
data tables to assist with construction coordination. Providing information
on how
to get around the campus, in general, and "detouring around" current
and anticipated construction will be discussed during this session, along
with the process used to justify the costs of developing the system.

Successful Implementation of Autodesk Land Desktop
Session 1 - This session will address the importance of field coding standards,
DWTs, Land Desktop Prototypes, and many often-ignored but extremely important
functions
within Land Desktop. If you are using plain AutoCAD, you are using the wrong
software. Use an AutoCAD specifically designed for land - Land Desktop.
Session 2 - Create and Maintain a GIS with your CAD Data - This session will
demonstrate how easy it is to create, maintain, and access a "survey grade
accurate" GIS
from your CAD drawings using functionality found in AutoCAD MAP, Land Desktop,
and Autodesk MAP Guide. If you have not
seen MAP Guide specifically, you'll want to.

Facility Base Mapping Fundamentals
The intent of this presentation is to introduce
the fundamentals of facility base mapping. It focuses on project design considerations,
digital mapping
processes, and accuracy standards; explains how mapping data is prepared
for use in geographic
information and CAD systems; and illustrates the capabilities and applications
of digital mapping in a University setting. The presentation focused on
digital orthophotography and plainmetric, utility, and topographic facility
base mapping. Recent mapping projects for
the University
of Wisconsin - Madison and Waukesha Technical College will be used as examples
for the presentation.
Presenter - Jason Nyberg is a project manager for Ayers Associates photogrammetry
operation, joining Ayers Associates in 2000. Jason has worked as a consultant
with Space Diagnostics, Inc. in Madison WI and as a GIS and cartography instructor

Space Inventory Management System "SIMS"
The intent of the "SIMS" project is to provide (1) improved management
of campus space through faster, clearer response to space requests, better
information about how space is used, and (2) a common data set from which
to work with the
schools and colleges on space analyses, option plans, and assignments. This
information will contribute to improved communication and will provide a
basis for partnership
in managing our space resources. To make this data readily available to our
customers, it will have the capability of being viewed and updated on the
web, and those
rooms directly associated with instruction and research will be linked to
color-coded printable floor plans. Interactive space management from an academic
support and space planning perspective rather than a plant operations view.
Learn how we've combined
a variety of software tools into a system that allows for the input-output
display & management of basic spatial and tabular
building & room
information using a web interface. The heart of the presentation focused
around what's worked & what hasn't
and will allow plenty of time for interaction and questions from the audience,
some of the tools "behind the scenes," and open time for discussion:
• ESRI - ARCsde, ARCview 3.2, ARCims
• Oracle - database, webdlb, portal
• Autodesk - Map 5
• Microsoft - Access

Creating Effective "Downstream" Partnerships
CAD departments have a wealth of knowledge that they share with their peers.
This knowledge resides on a multitude of different applications as each
department/university has preferred CAD solutions. The obstacles become
present when CAD departments
need to share their information with non-CAD users, both internal and external
to the university. The goal is 3-fold: (1) share your information electronically
with as large an audience as you wish, (2) allow as large an audience as you
wish to
review and
provide feedback, resulting in minimizing the number of times a drawing
needs to be re-worked, and (3) take the drawing delivery process, which
normally
takes hours if not days, and turn it into minutes, thereby saving time
and money. The challenges are how to achieve maximum efficiencies with
minimal human resources, keep from getting bogged down in integration requirements,
and
implement something
quickly and inexpensively.
