WLIA 2025 Annual Conference Appleton

What does the Judicial Privacy Act (Act 235) really mean for you? Intended to protect judicial officers by limiting public access to personal information, this law also brings unintended challenges for government and private sector operations. Join this panel to explore the Act’s intent, its practical impacts, and WLIA’s recommendations for implementation. Learn how groups like the State Courts Office, WLIA Judicial Privacy Task Force, PRIA Local, and other professional associations are working together to refine the law and advocate for practical amendments that balance protection with core service needs.

Daniel will be covering new applications that WisDOT has rolled out in the past year that have led to increased collaboration between WisDOT, consultants, counties, tribal entities, etc. I'll be showcasing use of Instant & Experience Builder Apps and how easy it is to rollout maps that allow external customers the ability to get to data quicker. Some collaboration applications that will be discussed are: As-built & Right-of-way plats, Structures High-Flow Event Monitoring, Commemorative Highways/Bridges and Michigan Border Timber Routes, Weight Restricted Bridges, and Roadside Facilities. Steven will be showcasing how the Bureau of Structures is using tools like SiteScan and other processing tools to model our structures. This allows us to utilize the data for inspections, quantity calculations and most recently developing 3D digital twins to train and calibrate structure inspectors across the state.
