Geographic Information and Document Management Systems (GIS & DMS) for the Litani River Authority (LRA)

Status :		Completed
Cost :		$535,060
Source of Fund :		Arab Fund for Economic & Social Development
Scope :		For this project, OMSAR adopted a brand new approach that will combine both the GIS and the DMS needs of the LRA into one integrated application. This integrated approach will eliminate duplication in the areas of data entry and research and will greatly enhance the performance of both the staff and the administration of the LRA. It is worth noting that the integrated GIS-DMS application of the LRA will be the first of its kind in the Middle East.

In order to improve its working environment, the Litani River Authority (LRA) needed to develop a system to manage all the documents and maps that are in its possession. OMSAR created a project that will assist the LRA in organizing its resources and data by the acquisition, development and implementation of a GIS (geographic information system) package that includes a full set of digitized maps. The project also covers the purchase, customization and implementation of a DMS (document management system) for all non-GIS-specific data as well as the integration of both packages.
