GIS Focus Areas

Munsys / Enlighten

Munsys is our original GIS platform where we had been managing all campus utilities and other information listed in the GIS Table of Contents through the start of 2024, and is no longer being updated. Enlighten is a web based tool (requiring a personal license) for finding, visualizing and accessing maps and other information stored across campus databases and archives. It is an interactive campus map that ties information to a location on campus. We are decommissioning Enlighten in 2024 and have migrated all of the data over to our CU GIS Portal on the ESRI platform

CU GIS Portal

We have developed our CU GIS Portal using ESRI products, where we can share campus maps and information with more people reducing the need for licenses for most users. The CU GIS Portal is a great way to utilize available campus map resources and to build your own maps choosing from available layers. Our Utility Mapos and Space Information Map are popular uses of the portal. To learn more or to request a demonstration, training, or access, please contact us today at fmcad@colorado.edu.

Data Collection

 

We have a GPS unit with a data collector that allows us to perform field surveys and geolocational data collection.

Data can also be collected through the use of smart phones, tablets or laptops.
