| Abstract | A previous study of information systems at the Division of Planning at the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) was conducted in response to concerns about data management issues and what could be done to improve information systems. Some of the findings of that study were: • Improvement is needed to meet information needs that are less predictable, that involve bringing many types of information together from many sources. • There was a need to be able to more easily find information. • Easier access to information was desired. • There was a need for better information integration. Often transportation data used by the Division of Planning was combined from many sources and there were some difficulties in relating the information. • There was an interest in determining an appropriate direction for further development of geographical information systems to meet analysis and presentation needs. |
