2. Acknowledgements

3. Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC)  A US Federal Interagency committee responsible for facilitating geospatial related activities and implementation of the NSDI across the Federal government  18 Federal agencies are members (soon to be 19)  Cooperate and coordinate with organizations from state, local and tribal governments, the academic community, and the private sector.

4. National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) The vision of the NSDI: to assure that spatial data from multiple sources (Federal, State, and local governments, academia, and the private sector) are widely available and easily integrated to enhance knowledge and understanding of our physical and cultural world.

5. What is Geospatial One Stop?  E-Government (E-gov) Initiative  Component of President Bush’s Management Agenda  One of 24 E-Government initiatives  Part of the Government to Government Portfolio  Vision: the geographic component for e-gov  Accelerate implementation of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI)

6. Geospatial One Stop Governance  US Office of Management and Budget oversees the direction of the E-Government Initiatives  Department of Interior serves as the Managing Partner for Geospatial One Stop  Federal Geographic Data Committee supports the Geospatial One Stop project implementation

9. GeoSpatial One Stop Tasks 1.Establish integrated Framework Data Content Standards 2.Use metadata to inventory, document and publish Framework data holding in NSDI Clearinghouse 3.Publish metadata for planned data acquisition and update for Framework data 4.Prototype and deploy enhanced data access and web mapping services for Federal Framework data 5.Establish a Federal Portal as a logical extension to the NSDI Clearinghouse Network

10. Task 1 Framework Standards Development  Focus on Framework data themes  Geodetic Control (National Geodetic Survey)  Elevation (US Geological Survey)  OrthoImagery (US Geological Survey)  Hydrography (US Geological Survey)  Government Units (Census)  Cadastral (Bureau of Land Management)  Transportation (Dept. of Transportation)  Sub-themes: Roads, Rail, Transit, Air

11. Task 1 ANSI Standards Process  ANSI INCITS L1 Subcommittee  Open participation for all sectors  National Standard, not Federal Standard  Benefit from INCITS standards expertise  To participate sign up: www.geo-one-stop.gov  Integrated Framework Data Content Standards  UML  XML (GML) encoding  OGC prototyping (CIPI)  ANSI Standards become basis of Geospatial Web Services

12. Module 2 Inventory/Document existing Federal agency framework datasets and publish metadata to clearinghouse Module 3 Inventory/Document planned acquisition data and publish metadata to clearinghouse GeoSpatial One Stop Tasks 2&3

13. Task 2- Existing Data Inventory/Documentation  Stage 1 All existing federal national coverage framework datasets  Stage 2 All existing federal regional/ local framework datasets  Stage 3 State and local framework datasets

14. Task 3 Planned Acquisition Data  Federal agencies post planned acquisition data information for capital asset projects  On-line “clearinghouse” to manage cross- agency information. Investment:Total projected investment & Agency Timing Estimated start date- completion date

15. GeoSpatial One Stop Tasks 4&5 ·Prototype and deploy enhanced data access and web mapping services for Federal Framework data and design Portal ·Establish a National Portal as a logical extension to the NSDI Clearinghouse Network ·OGC Technology Insertion Project for Portal (alpha version scheduled for May)

19. Geospatial One-Stop Portal Concept  Portal is an online access point for geospatial data, maps of data, and metadata about data  Distributed Information: data stored at provider sites, not in Portal  Portal uses open standards for interoperability  Geospatial web service specifications  Metadata and content standards  Portal builds upon NSDI Clearinghouse by providing direct access to data  Web-based user interface for human access  Application interface for automated GIS/DSS access

22. GOS Where we want to be  Users are able to discover and use maps or data served and maintained by a reliable custodian  The format and structure of the information for a given theme from all providers can appear the same to all customers  Content and encoding requirements are simple yet useful enough that many providers adopt and serve compliant Framework data  Data and map services are authoritative, reliable, and are referenced by many customers instead of setting up duplicate services elsewhere

23. GOS End Results  Standards for Framework layers are completed and deployed  Published planned spatial data activities. Federal agencies working with State, local, and commercial data publishers to reduce overlapping efforts  GOS Web portal provides access to standardized distributed data services

24. How can I participate?  GOS Standards Review (Now)  Review of Alpha version of Portal (MAY 03)  Apply for FGDC Grants that stimulate GOS activities (opens soon-- 60 period)  Metadata creation and Implementation($9k)  Clearinghouse and Open GIS ($25k)  Canadian/US Joint Project ( $75/cdn$100k)
