The System Enhancement Project for Industries' or Sewage Systems' Regulatory Reporting Data Management

Absrtact
Web-based “Industries' or Sewage Systems' Regulatory Reporting Data Management System” has served environmental authorities and facilities since 2003. For outdated system languages and overloaded electronic requirements of application procedures, the system has gradually failed to meet the need of information security, operation simplicity and decision supporting. To improve the system, the project has been promoted for rebuilding the system environment, establishing new functions, enhancing original functions, redesigning information security mechanisms and migrating system within the following two years. Four aspects of achievements had been made. In rebuilding the system environment, server condition and deployment, function map and function definition, users’ interfaces and users’ experiences had been re-planned. The server was upgraded with more storage capacity and memory capacity for better operation performance. 3 hierarchical task-oriented function maps and clear design of text and buttons provided for intuitive using experiences. By establishing new functions, the system enriched diverse management tool for facilities’ permits and other life-cycle data. Dashboards were established to remind the reviewing to-do list and facilities’ state- of-art. Besides, the system provided specific facility query and specific life-cycle reporting data query for satisfying various management purposes. Developing the function for self-recording helped environmental authorities maintain the control lists. What’s more, enhancing original functions, including application and review check, data collection, articulation and output, were implemented to elevate the input data quality and to strengthen the purpose of function. As for redesigning information security mechanisms, aware of database security, users’ account, sensitive data protection, data integrity, file upload checking, web page encryption and server protection made system safer. The project group also did safe tests and weak scans at fixed-frequency. The last aspect is migrating system. New servers and its’ software and settings had been erected. Three training classes and the contact information were provided to all system users.
