AGICTransportation Committee Goals and Objectives
Committee Goal Assist ADOT in coordinating the creation and maintenance of a statewide transportation GIS database with addressed centerlines
Short- term Objectives • complete the I-Team process for the Transportation Layer • research successful transportation GIS projects in other states, paying particular attention to: • alternatives for adding the address component (ranges) to the existing ADOT transportation coverage • methods for integrating existing local road data, as created/maintained by local governments, into the statewide transportation data layer
Long- term Objectives • Conduct a pilot project implementing research methods. Pilot area will be limited to a sub-region of the State (i.e. county, MPO) • (assuming the pilot project is successful) Assist ADOT in updating the statewide transportation layer with addressed, local roads

AGIC Vision The vision of AGIC is to facilitate the provision of credible, timely and accurate geographic information for widespread use by decision-makers and the citizens of Arizona. Mission Statement The mission of AGIC is to coordinate the development and management of geographic information in Arizona. AGIC promotes the use of GIS and related technologies to address problems, develop plans, and manage the natural, economic and infrastructure resources of the state.
Background The Arizona Geographic Information Council (AGIC) was established by Executive Order 89-24 as Arizona's primary forum and oversight group for geographic information and related technology issues. In its efforts to optimize the State's investment in geographic data and technology, AGIC identifies standards, facilitates coordination efforts, and provides guidance for GIS development and implementation strategies. AGIC facilitates the acquisition, exchange and management of geographic information and technology for the State of Arizona. This benefits both state agencies and the Arizona GIS community at large by encouraging cooperation and building partnerships. AGIC meets on a regular basis and conducts an Annual GIS Conference to address and coordinate statewide geographic information and technology issues, requirements and solutions.

Overview • AGIC has identified three broad goals relevant to accomplishing its mission. These goals serve as a focus for AGIC Committees which seek to promote the use of GIS statewide. • The three goals are: • Data Standardization and Sharing • Data Development • Education and Outreach • Objectives and associated actions that will further these goals are detailed below.
Objective Action Committee Establish legislative Watch Group to review pending legislation that might have GIS implications Set up liaison opportunities between state organizations and agencies to identify potential GIS issues at the legislative level Legal / Administrative Address Federal Legislative efforts that may impact state level concerns, using AGIC delegate to NSGIC. Legal / Administrative Establish adequate and stable source(s) of funding for GIS development. Inventory existing pricing practices and discover how current $4 DOR surcharge is being utilized throughout the state to promote GIS Information. Legal / Administrative Inventory current data partnerships, data sources and existing data pricing policies. Establish administrative procedures for the promotion of GIS Data sharing. Develop a generic MOU template for data sharing agreements Legal / Administrative Technology Establish standards for data ownership and rights of producers of geographic information Legal / Administrative Technology Develop a generic MOU template for data sharing agreements Legal / Administrative Technology Data Standardization and Sharing
Objective Action Committee Develop efficient and effective methods for the physical exchange of geographic information via hardware, software, and communications technologies and create a demonstration project that showcases these methods and technologies. Identify and describe a framework of data exchange services and client types which could be developed to assist in the implementation of better use and dissemination of GIS Data. Technology Develop a brief description of and list of components needed to satisfy the particular data exchange roles and services (service servers vs. clients of services). Technology Develop a list of demonstration project participants from a small list of state agencies Technology Develop functional roles matrix of services, service providers and clients for the participants utilizing the classification system described above. Select a subset of the list and potential participants for a demo/core project.
