A Geospatial Strategic Planning project is now underway, supported by a Cooperative Assistance Program (CAP) grant emanating from the USGS/FGDC’s Fifty States Initiative. The Strategic Plan will identify strategies for strengthening coordination of GIS data development, maintenance and sharing. Project activities will include:
• Conducting geospatial stakeholder interviews and information gathering workshops
• Working with VIGIC to identify priority recommendations
• Drafting the Strategic Plan
• Working with VIGIC to commence education and advocacy for implementing the plan’s recommendations
The project is anticipated to be completed by June, 2010. |
