Department of the Interior
Office of Surface Mining
AAT has provided services to the Department of the Interior, Office of
Surface Mining (OSM) since 1993. These services have included the full scale
migration of a mainframe-based application to a distributed
minicomputer environment, including support activities for the Ingres relational
data base management system; system administration of the Data General/Unix
hardware and system software environment; full life cycle development of local
area network-based and web-enabled application systems; and data administration.
AAT also completed the full life cycle development of the Abandoned Mine Land
Information System (AMLIS) to satisfy the requirement for an automated
nationwide inventory of abandoned mine land (AML) problems. AMLIS
documents unfunded high priority coal reclamation projects, records when
funding is made available for each problem area, reports completed projects,
and assists in making the determination that a State or Tribe has addressed
all known coal problems. AMLIS includes Geographic Information System capabilities
to create maps that show the locations of AML problems.
