NAVFAC Washington - Procedures and Specifications for Geographic Information System (GIS) Deliverables:

1. Overview:

The GeoReadiness Center (GRC) is the single, authoritative source and distribution point for all geospatial shore installation data within the NDW region. The GRC houses the most current geospatial information for the entire NDW region and provides access to the comprehensive data set and analysis tools to Regional and DOD decision makers/managers, sponsored Cooperators, and other sponsored individuals via a secure government Internet site.

2. Basic Requirements:

a. Submittals, Government Review and Acceptance:

i.All submittals shall be reviewed for structure and adherence to the required standards by an NDW GeoReadiness Program GIS Analyst before acceptance.

1. Review for accuracy and completeness according to the scope of work is the responsibility of the Project Manager or other designated subject matter expert personnel. NDW GeoReadiness, as part of the NAVFAC Asset Management Business Line, is not responsible for the accuracy and completeness of data acquired by other NAVFAC Business Lines, Navy organizations and commands.

ii.The government shall have two weeks to assess the submittal; the Cooperator shall then have two weeks to make any corrections and submit the final deliverable.

iii.All source code (ex. Python scripts, html files) and map files (ESRI ArcGIS (mxd)) shall be provided to the government.

iv.Failure to adhere to any of the stated delivery specifications could result in rejection of deliverables and nonpayment.

v. Cooperators should, at a minimum, submit data and documentation samples at 25% and 75% project completion to avoid the rejection of final deliverables.

b. Data Retention: All data (electronic and paper formats) must be removed from the Cooperator’s site and returned to the government at the end of the task order period of performance and before the final invoice is approved.

h. Line features shall be snapped together where appropriate to support networks.

For example, do not break linear features for labeling or other aesthetic purposes.

i. Lines shall be continuous and point features shall be digitized as points. For example, point features, such as manholes, shall not be drawn using only a circle (polygon) to represent its location.

j. No sliver polygons

k. Digital representation of the common boundaries for all graphic features must be coincident, regardless of feature layer

l. Geometric network connectivity shall be maintained for utility networks, where specified by the scope of work.

7. Field Collection
