The program uses the ESRI Field Maps Application on tablets that are integrated with GPS and cameras to accurately locate, capture, and document levee conditions. This information is then used to schedule and/or track maintenance activities along the levee systems.

Federal regulations require that all federal levees shall be inspected quarterly, at a minimum. DOTD has implemented a program, utilizing the latest GPS, GIS and database technologies to assist local levee owners with these inspections.
