o System will have to be operational for up to one year from the starting date of the
project
• This scope of work covers the development of database and web application(s) sufficient
to present three different types or groupings of contaminants (asbestos and two others)
• LMAQTF can provide subject matter experts to help define the presentation of the data
• The application development will be done with Java Server Pages - a Java applet in a
browser may be used
• The systems architecture solution is not yet defined. Potential options include:
o Use NYCOEM’s EMOLS architecture (ArcIMS w/Oracle)
o Use a NYC DOH-based/provided solution (unknown)
o Use an EPA-based/provided solution (unknown)
o Completely new systems architecture housed at NYC DoITT (Xmarc w/Oracle
Spatial or ArcIMS w/Oracle Spatial)
The specifics of the work effort described below will depend upon and vary according to the systems
architecture solution chosen.
