  1. NGAC Address SubcommitteeStatus Report NGAC Meeting December 11, 2013

  2. National Address Database Guidance “The NGAC developed a paper in 2012 assessing the need for the development of a National Address Database (NAD). The paper strongly supported the development of a NAD. The NGAC passed a resolution in September 2013 reiterating this support and encouraging the FGDC to develop a funding strategy to implement a NAD. As a continuation of this engagement, the NGAC Addressing Subcommittee is asked to: • Identify and document a set of compelling business cases that support the need for a National Address Database. • Provide feedback regarding options for more effectively incorporating Addressing into the A-16 Data Theme framework.” • October 2013 NGAC Guidance
