16 <br /> Servers <br /> Our servers are a combination of Dell, IBM and Compaq hardware, depending <br /> on the vintage of procurement. These servers are configured to a variety of <br /> operating systems, including Windows, a legacy AIX server and two Linux <br /> servers. The average age of servers is approximately 3 years, with a few <br /> critical servers working beyond their expected lifespan, posing a risk to <br /> customer services. <br /> Desktops <br /> Desktops are predominantly P4 or better computers running Win2000 and <br /> WinXP. They range in age from 6 years to new. Older computers are beyond <br /> their expected lifespan and are no longer vendor supported. Further, these <br /> older computers are often incapable of supporting newer security software <br /> and additional enterprise applications. <br /> Operations Support <br /> The OCIT Operations staff provides the following services: <br /> • Server maintenance, troubleshooting, upgrading and replacement <br /> • Network maintenance, troubleshooting, upgrading and replacement <br /> • Email system maintenance, troubleshooting, upgrading and replacement <br /> • Desktop maintenance, troubleshooting, upgrading and replacement <br /> • Help Desk function <br /> Geographic Information Systems <br /> Now a part of Information Technologies, the Geographic Information Systems <br /> component of Orange County needs to be evolved to meet the analytical needs of our <br /> constituents, our fellow departments and our elected officials. <br /> Long term needs for GIS are to develop a richly detailed address-driven information <br /> center on the website. This tool could provide myriad data points in response to a <br /> single address. Crime statistics, school and political districts, recreational proximities <br /> and many other data points could be provided. <br /> Other capabilities to be developed include: <br /> • Ability to search by sales specified by amounts, dates, and locations <br /> (subdivision, etc.) <br /> • Parcel linkages to a property record card <br /> • Parcel selection based on a manually defined buffer with the capability to export <br /> the selected attributes to an Excel spreadsheet <br /> • Integrated multiple year orthophotography <br /> • Selectable GIS view scale <br /> • Oblique imagery integration <br /> • Integration with NCOneMap (http://www.nconemap.com/) <br />
