Originally created by Claunch & Miller, Inc. (part of HDR Engineering as of 2008) in 2002, this file has been maintained in-house since then. Updates are provided through a combination of as-builts, field verifications, and word of mouth from employees who have worked on a particular feature.<\/SPAN><\/P>

Field breakdown: The unique identifier for the fhs, which consists of the fire district number* and a base number, is in the <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>FHNUMBER [FH ID] <\/SPAN>field. The individual components of the identifier are in the <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>FHNOPREFIX [FH Prefix] <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>and <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>FH_NO [FH Number] <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>fields. The fire district to which the fh is associated is listed in the <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>DISTRICT [Fire District] <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>field, and the associated Council District is listed in <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>CouncilDist [Council District]<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>. The <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>MANUFACTUR [Model]<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>field uses the FireManu domain to list the fh<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>\u2019<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>s model, and the <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>MANUFACTU2 [Model Year]<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>field contains the year the fh was made. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>STATUS [Status] <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>contains the fh<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>\u2019<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>s current repair status via the FHStatus domain (the status updates were provided via a weekly email from a designated Public Works Administrative Assistant but stopped after January 5, 2018, due to the implementation of a new work order system) while the <\/SPAN>DATEINSTAL [Update Date]<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>field contains the date of the status update email. The <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>VALVE_ON_H [Has Valve]<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>field uses the YesNo domain to indicate whether the fh has a water valve. The <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>GPS_DATE [GPS Date] <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>and <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>GPS_TIME [GPS Time]<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>fields contain information about when the feature was originally shot into the system. <\/SPAN>The <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>NORTHING [Northing (Y)]<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>, <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>EASTING [Easting (X)] Z [Elevation (Z)] <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>fields contain coordinate data.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

All Z values are in feet. All Elevation data is Surface Elevation.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

Due to VUEWorks (Public Works<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>\u2019<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>work order system), care must be taken when deleting features. The IDs cannot be reused and must be retired after a deletion. The retired IDs for this feature class are: 239, 1072, and 1703.<\/SPAN><\/P>

* Two of the fire district borders changed sometime before 2013 but <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>after<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>the fh numbering system was implemented, resulting in a situation where some fhs have numbers that do not match their district.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>", "summary": "This file contains information about the fire hydrants in The City of Galveston\u2019s water system.", "title": "Fire Hydrants", "tags": [ "utilities", "water" ], "type": "", "typeKeywords": [], "thumbnail": "", "url": "", "minScale": 50000, "maxScale": 5000, "spatialReference": "", "accessInformation": "Claunch and Miller, Inc.\nCity of Galveston", "licenseInfo": "
