EXPERIENCES DEVELOPING A CURRICULUM FOR DIGITAL MAP PRODUCTION Marjorie Seale Systems Consultant - Intergraph Corporation Federal Systems Division - Advanced Programs Huntsville, Alabama, USA 35894-0001 (205) 730-2000 ISPRS Commission VII ABSTRACT This paper shares the experiences gained from developing and implementing a training curriculum for a large system designed to automate and streamline cartographic production operations. Courses were created for production managers, photo analysts, photogrammetrists, and senior managers to produce a number of specific map products. The objective of the courses was to teach operators, managers, and other support personnel how to use analytical stereoplotters to collect digital map data. The discussion covers the factors to consider in developing multi-discipline application training. The success of such training is dependent upon users' ability to absorb and apply their knowledge. Insights on how user expectations influence the development and presentation of course contents will also be examined. Professionals responsible for administering a technical training program will be introduced to the collaborative process of formulating a training plan and course materials, selecting the content and the methods of presentation, and developing the schedule. KEYWORDS: Training, Training plan, Instruction, Production, Implementation. INTRODUCTION Once an organization acquires a new system, the training activities are an important part of accepting and implementing it. Whether the hardware and software are commercially available or are developed according to specific requirements, training as a task often initially appears within a program schedule as a relatively short period of time. This is usually sometime after the system is installed and before the first production projects are begun. However, there may be users and managers who should begin their training prior to the systems arrival or well after the initial production activities have started. Thus, before an instructor ever enters a classroom, a significant amount of planning and managerial coordination between multiple organizations is required. The number of students, facilities, duration, prerequisite user preparation, number of courses, subject content, and presentation techniques must be identified and approved prior to drafting or selecting the course materials. This paper uses our experiences of preparing for a real world program to emphasize several factors of effective training. The training curriculum we developed was composed of a combination of existing and specially developed courses. There were four different cartographic product types and five sites. The specially prepared production manager and photo analyst courses included dry run presentations and revisions prior to on site instruction. Programmers, system managers, senior managers, and specialists also attended other training courses or workshops. Figure 1. Composite Schedule Example, provides an impression of the complex sequence of these multiple on-site activities. The training topics discussed in this paper are presented in three sections; Formulating the Training Plan, Developing the Content, and Preparing the Schedule. Whether an organization decides to develop specific application courses or elects to use existing training sources, most of the factors still need to be considered. A small installation may approach these factors informally while a large system composed of several locations needs a clearly defined curriculum.
