  1. US NSDI Initiatives:State ActivitiesGeospatial One-StopFuture Directions ASPRS Spring Meeting Denver, CO 25 May 2004 Ivan DeLoatch, Staff Director Alan R. Stevens, International Program Director US Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) www.fgdc.gov +703-648-5119

  2. US Spatial Data Infrastructure:At the Crossroads & moving forward US Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) • Evolution (nationally) • How to keep the pressure on …? • How to percolate it down to the working level? • State initiatives • Goespatial One-Stop (e-gov) • Future Directions • About the track

  3. Create a National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) ……… To encourage the collection, processing, archiving, integration, and sharing of geospatial data and information using common standards and interoperable systems and techniques ….. and accessible via the web

  4. What is the Federal Geographic Data Committee? Really two answers…. • Body of people facilitating the creation of the NSDI within the US • Committee of many federal, state, academic agencies and the private sector working to actually build the NSDI

  5. The Federal Geographic DataCommittee • Chartered in the early 1990s • Federal – 19 cabinet level agencies & offices • Many states, regional, & local governments participate • Along with the private sector, NGOs, and Academia

  6. FGDC Steering CommitteeCabinet Officers and Agencies: • Interior (Vice Chair) • Agriculture • Defense • Energy • Health and Human Services • Housing and Urban Development • Justice • State • Transportation

  7. FGDC Steering CommitteeCabinet Officers and Agencies: • Environmental Protection • Emergency Management • Library of Congress • NASA • Archives and Record Service • Office of Management and Budget (Vice Chair) • Commerce • National Science Foundation • Tennessee Valley Authority • General Services Administration

  8. Federal Geographic Data Steering Committee • It’s not just federal……. • States • Counties • Municipalities • Non-Governmental Organisations • Industry

  9. NSDI … so where are we today?Strong high-level political federal support • FGDC starts late 1980s – early 1990s • High level political support • OMB Circular A-16 • NSDI Presidential Executive Order 1994 • Secretarial involvement in the FGDC • Extensive partnerships established • Standards -- nationally, internationally • Clearinghouse network • Open policy for federal spatial data

  10. The Federal Geographic DataCommittee …. what’s new? • Major focus within the Federal Government • An effort to reach into states and communities • Need a sustained effort to drive the concept and application to the states and local governments

  11. The Federal Geographic DataCommittee …. what’s new? • State Initiatives • Geospatial One-Stop • E-gov • E-com

  12. WHAT do we mean by state initiatives ? In the US, it is a collaborative process for a state to organize the way it produces, archives, and shares its digital geospatial assets ….. a State SDI

  13. Why do we want states involved? • Helps all levels of government fulfill their missions • Develops links between: • The US FGDC and the State and its data • The State and the County/City data • Supports and facilitates: • The US NSDI in concept and operation • Geospatial One Stop • GSDI ……. local to global

  14. What is it not?? • It is not a new agency • It is not more bureaucracy • Probably not looking for more money • Although ………………???? • Not separate from NSDI or FGDC!!

  15. What Do State Teams Do? • Address institutional barriers • Identify most effective ways to collect, maintain and distribute data • Designate data stewards • As best we can to fit into NSDI recommendations including: • Metadata creation • Clearinghouse development • Framework • etc

  16. The Federal Geographic DataCommittee …. what’s new? • State Initiatives • Geospatial One-Stop • E-gov • E-com

  17. What is the President’s management agenda? President’s management agenda : …… pathway to a government that delivers results…. Making it … easier, faster, cheaper…. for all levels of government and public to access geospatial data and information

  18. What is the President’s management agenda? E-Government ….. Use of digital technology to transform government operations to improve efficiency and effectiveness • It is a means to an end; not an ‘end’ in itself……….

  19. What is Geospatial One-Stop? Goal ….. Provide federal and state agencies with a single point of access to geographic information reducing/eliminating redundant data collection and archives. Milestones ….. • Identify federal inventory of framework data • Focus on standards • Deploy Geospatial 1-stop portal

  20. So how does does all of this relate to the NSDI??? • One and the same……… • Another way to promote and drive some of the basic cannons of the NSDI • Really a mechanism to: • keep the pressure on ……. • To keep the principles of the program in front of the NSDI advocates and the user community • To percolate the concepts to the lowest levels

  21. FGDC/NSDI Future Directions Why do we need to …….? • Added one-stop • 1994 & 97 strategic plans developed • New staff director • Really need the local data holdings to adopt • Questions about the coordination of NSDI, GOS, and CTM • Attention to Homeland Security • Where do we want to be in 2014?

  22. FGDC/NSDI Future Directions What is the process????? • FGDC staff built straw-man • Involve other stakeholders • Consumed the entire FGDC coordination committee

  23. FGDC/NSDI Future Directions VISION: Current and accurate geospatial data will be available to contribute locally, nationally, and globally to economic growth, environmental quality, and stability, and social progress

  24. FGDC/NSDI Future Directions 1. Forging partnerships with a purpose Expand the governance model

  25. FGDC/NSDI Future Directions 2. Making framework real …generating framework data themes that will include collection, documentation, access, and utilization of data.

  26. FGDC/NSDI Future Directions 3. Communicating the Message …recognized across the nation as the primary source for the availability and use of reliable spatial data

  27. Create a National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) ……… To encourage the collection, processing, archiving, integration, and sharing of geospatial data and information using common standards and interoperable systems and techniques ….. and accessible via the web

  28. So what are we doing here this week….?? Nine session Track on: • NSDI • Geospatial One-Stop • Cooperative Topo Map Program • NSDI Cap grants • Global Spatial Data Infrastructure (GSDI) • Global Sustainability

  29. So what are we doing here this week…..? Tuesday • 10:30 AM • NSDI • National Map • CAP Grants • 1:00 PM • NSDI & the utility companies • A Japanese case study • GSDI

  30. So what are we doing here this week…..? Tuesday • 2:30 PM • CAP grant panel • 5:00 PM • Two examples of SDI applications in the international community

  31. So what are we doing here this week…..? Wednesday • 9:30 AM • Overview of Geospatial One-Stop • 1:30 & 3:00PM • GOS implementation and demo

  32. So what are we doing here this week…..? Thursday • 9:30 AM • A new vision for the National Map Program • 11:00 • Implementing the National Map Strategy
