FAZDOCS NCHRP PROJECT 20-21 User's Guide to ISIMS DEMONSTRATION

FAZDOCS NCHRP PROJECT 20-21 User's Guide to ISIMS (Integrated Survey Information Management System) DEMONSTRATION is funded by NCHRP. The 6-page document is dated circa 1980's. ISIMS Demonstartion program runs on an IBM-PC. There are several similarities across the three demonstrators which will apply to any ISIMS application structured in the manner of these demonstrators.
A. Modules 1 and 8 are activated by inserting calls to proprietary computer programs, into the system's driver routine. In the actual October 1986 demonstration in Louisiana, WORDSTAR was used as the editor in Module 8, and XTALK was used as the communications package in Module 1. In these three demonstrators, these modules are not filled, but on-line instructions are given to incorporate off-the-shelf packages into the systems in the demonstrators.
B. Modules 2 and 3 are data collector and data collection procedure dependent, and as such, must be rewritten across agencies.
C. The demonstration software in Module 4 is dependent upon the plotter's knowledge of HPGL (Hewlett Packard Graphics Language).
D. Software in Modules 4, 5, 6, 7 and 9 all accept UFF as input and so are applicable to any agency using ISIMS, (except for the restrictions mentioned in Appendix H of the project's final report.
