The DROMAS is developed based on following approaches; Complete Open Source System Design requiring no proprietary software Centralized Database using PostgreSQL/PostGIS which is a enterprise grade open source database widely used. Open Source Quantum GIS for Desktop GIS to manipulate the GIS data and processing of GPS data. Geo-Server Based Web Mapping system using PostgreSQL data of road layers and other static background layers. Automatic Updating Desktop Software using "Click Once" technology Android based mobile system for mapping and inventory 2. The architecture of DROMAS has been designed using the layered architectural pattern. A two dimensional layering approach has been used to structure the software firstly by responsibility and secondly for reuse. i

4 1.2 Presentation Layer 3. Presentation layers consist of four components ; a) DROMAS Desktop b) DROMAS Web Interface c) DROMAS Web Mapping d) DROMAS Mobile 4. The DROMAS Desktop is a windows based desktop application delivered to end users via Web based "clickonce Installation" for windows based system. The web page is a standard web system written with css and java script for project status display. The web mapping is provided through the "Geo-Server". 5. Web based system for dissemination of the data through internet is required for addressing the public data demand as well as for notifying the work progress to the higher authorities. 1.3 Data Layer 6. The Data Layer persists DROMAS data into a PostgreSQL with PostGIS database. The structure of the DROMAS Database is based on the data storage requirements implied in various requirements of the system including road information system, road planning etc. The database contains multiple schemas with the data in each schema. The PostGIS Database provides support for storage and manipulation of spatial data including road network, background maps, accessibility analysis etc. 1.4 System Installation and Operation 7. The proposed system is based on server based installation. use following link to access the setup file This will download a setup.exe file. Save this file in the computer and run it. Follow the screen procedures and the program will be installed automatically will be available from start panel in DROMAS2/DROMAS2.EXE. 9. In order to operate the system, a valid user name and password is required. This can be obtained from the PMORLG. 2 DESCRIPTION OF SYSTEM 1. The entire system is grouped in to menus based on their similarity of functions. The following table provides the summary of the menus and the sub-sequent section provides details of each of the menus and the sub-menus 1

The login is required for all the operation. Provide the user name and password in the dialog box which is shown after pressing the login menu. 2

6 3.2 Select District & Financial Year 3. Before proceeding to the any other aspect of the system, a selection of work area is required. This is accessed through this menu. Select the work area (District). depending on the user rights, the District list might show the districts with are allocated to the users. 3.3 Manage Users 4. This menu is used to change the passwords and also create users (only used by Administrators) Change Password 5. Use this to change the password of the user Add Users 6. Use this to add users. This is only available to the Administrators. 3

7 3.3.3 Edit Users 7. This menu is to view and edit users. The users can be deleted. Change in user's setting is not available. 3.4 Logout 8. This menu will log out the user from the system. After this a login will be required to use the system. 3.5 Exit 9. Will Exit from the program. 4 ROAD NETWORK 4

8 10. The Inventory system provide the access to all the information related to inventory of the road network. 4.1 Road Network Road Network 11. The road network provides provisions for creating road network and refining the mobile data. Loading of geometry is also provided in this tool. 12. In order use the tool follow steps as below; a) Select the District and press 'Load' b) Right click on the grid to Edit, Delete or Add new road 5

9 c) For new roads provide the From Chainage (0+000 format), length (Km), Road Code, Road Name etc. d) Click on 'Load Geometry' to load geometry for the selected road. In case of new road entry first save the road without geometry and later edit it to include the geometry. The geometry should be clean shapefile in single part. Significant editing is required to prepare clean shapefile from the gps track. Use QGIS to create a clean shape file and also add a column for the road code and enter the proper road code. e) Provide 'Last Update', 'Inventory year', 'update notes' and select program under which this inventory was carried out and the year of construction if applicable. f) To edit the previously defined data, select it in the and the data related to the selected road be shown in the input boxes below. Make necessary changes and press 'Save'. g) A instruction to use QGIS for GPS track editing is given in Appendix Road Links 13. Road Links are defined using road nodes. These could be homogenous sections or sections for maintenance etc. In order to define links, the road nodes should be defined first. 6

10 14. In order use the tool follow steps as below; a) Select the Road using the road codes. Corresponding road name will appear. b) Use 'Load Road' button to select the road for this tool c) If new sections are to be created, Click 'New' to create Sections. d) Provide a link code. It could be road code with suffix 01, 02 etc e.g Provide link name. e) Provide the from node and to node. The node should already be defined using 'Road Nodes'. f) Provide the purpose of the link by selecting one of the options. g) Provide 'Last Update', 'Inventory year', 'update notes' and select program under which this inventory was carried out and the year of construction if applicable. h) To edit the previously defined data, select it in the grid and the data related to the selected road be shown in the input boxes below. Make necessary changes and press 'Save' Road Nodes 15. Road Nodes are the specific location in a road indicating various functions. 7

11 16. In order use the tool follow steps as below; a) Select the Road using the road codes. Corresponding road name will appear. b) Use 'Load Road' button to select the road for this tool c) If new nodes are to be created, Click 'New' to create nodes. d) Provide a node code. It could be road code with suffix 01, 02 etc e.g Provide node name. e) Provide the chainage, known mark (if available), latitude/longitude etc f) Provide the purpose of the node by selecting one of the options. g) Provide 'Last Update', 'Inventory year', 'update notes' and select program under which this inventory was carried out and the year of construction if applicable. h) To edit the previously defined data, select it in the grid and the data related to the selected road be shown in the input boxes below. Make necessary changes and press 'Save' Download Data 17. This tool can be used to download the data from server as shape file. [To be Implemented] Calibrate Chainage with GPS 8

12 18. This tool is useful for calibrating the chainages with GPS coordinate. In general this is not required if all portion a road are properly surveyed with GPS and are in plain regions. In case of planned roads, the alignment is not well defined and can be extension of existing road. In such situation, the GPS calibration can be used to properly defined the existing portions. 19. In order use the tool follow steps as below; a) Use 'Load Road' button to select the road for this tool b) use 'New' to create new position of calibration. No calibration is required if only using start and end points (it is done automatically) c) Provide the GPS coordinate and corresponding chainage. The format for chainage is d) Press 'Calc' to check the accuracy of the point. The accuracy is the distance of the GPS coordinate from the road line. Do not use point that are more than 100m accuracy. e) Provide update date, notes, established year and program as appropriate and save it. f) to edit the previously defined data, select it in the grid and the data related to the selected node will be shown in the input boxes below. Make necessary 9

13 changes and press 'Save'. a). Road Inventory 20. The Inventory system provide the access to all the information related to inventory of the road network Construction Status 21. Construction Status is indication of the road status at present with respect to its access (All Weather, Fair Weather, Under Construction or planned new construction). 1
