Presentation Outline
 DWMA Overview
 Data Sources
 Web Interface and Tools
 Query Functionality
 System Architecture
DWMA Overview
 A secure Web-based geospatial application for US EPA Office of
Ground Water and Drinking Water
 Enables queries of the Safe Drinking Water Information System
(SDWIS/FED) with other federal and state data
 Identifies potential risks to surface water and groundwater used
for public drinking water
 Generates query driven maps and reports at a variety of spatial
scales
Data Sources
 Drinking water sources (intakes and wells) from SDWIS/FED
 Source water (protection) areas from states (SWAs)
 Point sources of contamination including dischargers, hazardous
waste sites, Superfund sites, and state sources
 Non-point sources of contamination including USGS nitrogen
fertilizer use, herbicide use, and USDA animal waste
 Surface waters represented by the NHD in the RAD
 Groundwater represented by USGS groundwater regions,
principal aquifers, and groundwater atlas
 A variety of other layers from EPA IGD and RAD and USGS

Use of Existing Web Reports
Custom hyperlinks to existing
EPA web reports available for:
 EPA PCS, RCRIS, and
CERCLIS sites
 Drinking water systems
 RAD impaired waters,
water quality standards,
and no discharge zones
SDWIS/FED Query Functionality
 Tabs of interest defined by client
 Locate public water sources by location, type, size, and
violations
 Check for Clean Water Act (CWA) protection
 Identify potential upstream point sources of contamination
 Identify potential nearby point sources of contamination
 Identify sources drawing from areas with elevated non-point
source impacts
 Find interactions between any of the above
Surface Water Protection Areas
 Looking for

Non-Point Sources
 Correlating

violations
and
potential

Topographic Maps
Aerial Photos
Note: The mapped objects (e.g., SWAs
and sources) in the topographic and
aerial photograph views were rendered
for display purposes only and do not
represent actual GIS data.
System Architecture
 Integrated with EPA’s WATERS info. system
 Web browser client (IE or Netscape)
 Mapping/web server middleware
 ESRI ArcIMS 4.0
 Microsoft IIS with Active Server Pages
 Oracle Net8 and Oracle Objects for OLE
 Databases
 Two separate Oracle databases
 Oracle Enterprise Edition 8.1.7 and ArcSDE 8.1.2
 Oracle PL/SQL procedures

Security for Sensitive EPA
Drinking Water Data
 Only accessible on EPA intranet
 User login validated against database
 Users authenticated programmatically
 Sessions timed out after 20 minutes of inactivity
 All data transfers encrypted through Secure Socket
Layer (SSL)
 ArcIMS map services secured
Conclusions
 A simple internet browser can be turned into a powerful mapping
and query tool by wrapping a customized ArcIMS HTML viewer
with additional frames to build queries
 Such an interface allows one to easily tap into multiple ArcSDE
geodatabases and existing web reports
 Database level services (e.g., navigation) can be shared and
leveraged by multiple applications
