This year’s project was implemented in order to meet contractual requirements and satisfy the needs of relevant environmental protection agencies. Five main work items were implemented in accordance with project objectives, so as to complete the tasks that we had been entrusted with by the environmental protection agencies at various levels of government. As regards “Drinking Water Source Water Quality Protection Zone Geographical Information System” function extension and maintenance, GIS data updating and fault repair, we successfully expanded the range of functions provided, with the addition of a unified, cross-system sign-in function, drinking water statistical map function, a spatial display platform for data in the public domain, a mobile device inquiry and map layer creation function, etc. With regard to “Drinking Water Management Information System” function extension, maintenance of normal operation, data updating and fault repair, we successfully expanded the range of functions provided, with the addition of a drinking water quality management item toxicology data inquiry function, a proactive message notification function, and performance appraisal results for FY2017, etc.; we also added an Environmental Enforcement Management System (EEMS) linkage function and related search functions. Regarding “Drinking Water Management Global Information Network” function extension, maintenance of normal operation, data updating and fault repair, we completed the establishment of responsive web pages and also implemented data updating. With respect to area surveys of drinking water quality protection zones designated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and enhancement of GIS data precision, we completed surveys of the area of 26 protection zones that have been formally announced by municipal, county or city governments, as well as implementing impact analysis and drawing up a total of 247 1/5000 scale maps. As regards system operation related presentations and information security maintenance management operations, a “Nationwide Drinking Water Management Operations Review Meeting and Data Utilization Presentation” was held on November 7, 2017, and we also completed the revisions of the draft version of the “Explanation of the Evaluation of Government Policy in Regard to Changes in the Area Covered by Drinking Water Quality Protection Zones” and implemented related information security, backup and performance testing operations in line with EPA regulations. To summarize the implementation of this year’s project, the functionality of the relevant systems has been strengthened in accordance with the actual needs of environmental protection agencies, thereby leading to an improvement in operational efficiency.
