AHS GIS Project Summary
This project focused on location mapping and analysis of AHS adopters, sources, donors, and volunteers
The results of the project will help AHS work more efficiently and effectively to save homeless animals in central Texas
AHS GIS Project Purpose
The purpose of this project was to gather, interpret, and map data regarding AHS operations
Locations and demographic data for:
Dog and cat adopters, sources
Volunteers
Donors
Collaborators
AHS GIS Project Scope
Austin Humane Society Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA)
This includes Travis, Williamson, Hays, Bastrop, and Caldwell counties
AHS Metropolitan Statistical Area
Created by: Geospatial Pet Solutions
AHS Metropolitan Statistical Area
What is GIS?
GIS is a combination of hardware and software that allows users to relate events or phenomena of interest to spatial data
Allows users to view and interpret underlying spatial patterns, distributions, and processes of any phenomena
AHS GIS Project Data
Regional roads, city limits, Census tracts/blocks/groups (2000), Counties (Capcog.org)
Animal sources for AHS by zip code, species (feline and canine), and age group (adult and juvenile) Shelters, rescue groups within and outside the MSA
Data has been provided by AHS in spreadsheet format from their PetPoint system
Municipal/County shelters or animal controls and non-profit humane societies within the MSA
Data obtained from online sources
Data Continued
Dog and cat adoptions by address, zip code, and species Provided by AHS in spreadsheet format from PetPoint system
AHS volunteers (Dog, cat, foster, adoption and event) by address
AHS Donors by address
AHS GIS Project Methodology
Import all basemaps into ArcMap
Geocode all addresses and zip codes in order to perform analysis
Use spatial analyst to create visuals
Point pattern analysis Evaluate the spatial distribution of all animal sources, shelters,
adoptions, volunteers, and donors and examine their spatial relationships
Spatial modeling Geometric models- mean center, distribution, distance
Coincidence models Polygon overlay

Results
Using GIS analysis, we were able to: Identify high volume AHS operation census block groups
Identify underlying demographic patterns associated with AHS operations
Identify and map animal shelter agencies within the AHS MSA
Create an interactive reference map, as well as static reference maps
Suggest specific census block groups to be targeted by AHS for their operations
2009/2010 Cat Adopters
2009/2010 Dog Adopters
High Cat Adopter Areas
High Dog Adopter Areas
Volunteers per Block Group
Donations Under $500
Donations Over $500
Conclusions
The final maps identify the census block groups containing the highest numbers of AHS operations for 2009/2010
Each operation variable has its own map: volunteers, dog adopters, cat adopters, donors less than $500, donors greater than $500
The block groups identified are the suggested locations for AHS to focus their efforts
