Why Does Geospatial Technology Matter?
U.S. Department of Labor has identified Geospatial Technology as a High Growth Industry: http://www.doleta.gov/Brg/Indprof/geospatial_profile.cfm
Detailed data about government programs, and geospatial visualization of that data, can provide a clarifying vision for action where action is needed most.
According to the National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO), geospatial capabilities represent “a portfolio of capabilities that extends across the enterprise. The investment in this portfolio is growing … in every aspect of government decision making.”*
* National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO), “Governance of Geospatial Resources: Where’s the Data? Show Me’ – Maximizing Investment in State Geospatial Resources.” July 2008:http://www.nascio.org/newsroom/pressReleases/080723.cfm

discrepancies in data accuracies, data availability and delivery of services to citizens across the state
Base understanding up overcome common challenges and make GA far more likely to receive federal funds for coordinated data acquisition and programs
Results will help craft sound state policy with which local governments can reasonably comply
Results will be presented to the Georgia legislature with recommendations that benefit (directly or indirectly) all who contribute to the findings

Who Should Complete Audit & How?
Each local, regional and state government organization in Georgia
Strategies for completing the audit:o Have a person knowledgeable about Geographic Information Systems
(GIS) and/or related place-based practices (in place or planned) complete the audit on behalf of the organization
• Ex., parcel mapping, planning, Location-Based Services, surveying, civil engineering, photogrammetry, E911, Certified Floodplain Managers, etc.
o Ideally, there should be 1 profile per org, unless there are various departments managing Framework or Other Data, or unless there’s an org-specific reason to have >1 profile
o The org can create 1 profile and share with different (appropriate) people to complete pertinent sections
• Ex., one person might complete the Policy section while another might complete the Data section. This requires sharing the login credentials.
• Or, consider pulling together a small group and completing the audit collectively.
