May 2005: Performed a linux upgrade on a mission critical GIS Server. The server was upgraded from RedHat 9 to CentOS 4.0. At the same time, currently operating versions of Apache, PostgreSQL and PHP were also upgraded.

December 2004: WIT was contracted to develop a GIS survey for the Council, in order to provide future directions. The survey was to be filled out by all staff and needed to cover all emerging GIS technologies whilst be simple enough to be filled out by non-GIS staff.

June 2003: Woodward IT was contracted to convert all of Council's geographic and database information to the Geocentric Datum of Australia (GDA94).

June 2002: Woodward IT was responsible for adding some new functionality to the GIS Intranet Application totally in the web space. Some intensive JavaScript was written to handle mouse events, so that mailing lists could be generated by single clicking, drawing a line, or dragging a box. This was done without Java at about 1/10 the development time and cost.

December 2001: Woodward IT was contracted to roll over the Thuringowa intranet application from Web Broker to GenaServer. At the same time, the application interface was also redeveloped to be more cross-browser and make use of DHTML flyout menus. WIT was also used to perform adhoc training on image analysis and SQL.

Woodward IT was responsible for designing and developing an Intranet GIS Application to replace an older Query tool using web technologies. The application is used by all Council staff to query property and asset information. Functionality includes:
  • Standard navigation and layer management including zooming in, out, to scale, to a map sheet, displaying selected layers and password protection
  • HTML report generation on property queries and asset queries
  • Searching of maps for a specific road, property or asset
  • Display of associated photos and scanned images such as blockage plans, and house connection diagrams
  • Dynamic DXF generation and download of map information in the current display area
  • Dynamic PDF generation and download using standard map templates of layers in the current display area
  • Scaled cartographic output
  • Online data maintenance of water assets, parks and bus stops
  • Searching/Reporting from Oracle and Informix databases

October 2000: Full Asset Management of the sewer network in GIS. This involved uniquely tagging each segment of sewer main, manhole, pump station and house connection. Code was also provided for the data capture maintenance as well as an intranet application for the specific purpose of updating sewer attributes by graphically clicking on the sewers in a browser.

Full Asset management for water, and storm water. WIT has been responsible for developing programs to initially create unique asset IDs, populate Oracle tables, extract spatial information and perform maintenance on new assets. As a result of this, the asset confidence level and knowledge has increased.

May 2000: Generation of map data used in "watercad" to perform analysis on the water network. This involved predicting water usage in catchment areas and future use determined by area size and zoning.

May 2000: Script generation for production of series maps for water, stormwater and sewer assets to HPGL or PDF. Thuringowa can now produce multiple maps with one command in either format.

February 2000: WIT was contracted to produce documentation for a Council tender for the capture of a Survey-Accurate cadastre

November 2000: WIT formed a relationship with Omnicad whilst being subcontracted to complete some outstanding projects Sutherland Shire Council. One project involved the registering and display of Sydways images and the second was a traffic asset data capture function added to the customers existing enquiry application.
