Stewarding America’s Data Assets

Ronald Matzner

I-Team Coordinator

Arizona GIS Conference

August 6, 2002

What is Our Vision?

Geographic Information that Anyone, Anywhere Can Readily Access, Plug In and Use For Any Legitimate Purpose With Confidence That Is Current, Accurate and Nationally Consistent

What Did You Tell Us It Will Take?

A Community Mandate• Build National Resources From Bottom Up• Create Partnerships• Get Everyone Around the Table• Best Partner Develops and Stewards Data• Develop and Implement Consensus Standards and

Specifications • Share Data Collections• Transparency and Accountability • Align Roles, Responsibilities and Resources• Pool and Leverage Investments

A Presidential Mandate President Bush’s Management Reform Agenda A National GIS Strategy is Essential for at Least 2 of his Five

Primary Objectives Integrating Management Performance and Budget E-government

increase agency productivity eliminate redundancy improve service delivery

How Do We Get There?

There is No One Program or Process that Will Get Us There

Many States Already Planning and Executing an Enterprise Strategy

We Need An Integrated National Enterprise Strategy

Engage State and Local Leaders Engage White House Engage OMB Budget Examiners

Phase II (Next 18 Months) Complete Essential Infrastructure Elements Develop Business Case and Cost/Benefit Educate Legislative Branch Engage State Budget Offices Design Enterprise Implementation Plan


Critical Path

Phase III Build A Broad Political Coalition Legislate Incentives for Local Governments Address the Geospatial Digital Divide

Phase IV Align Roles, Responsibilities and Resources Secure Funding and Financing

Essential National Missions using America’s Data Assets

Opportunities for Collaboration National Map Census TIGER Modernization FEMA NFIP and Disaster Mitigation 120 Cities


Develop Data Coordination Strategy

Local data needed for daily business operations is the same data needed by other jurisdictions and levels of government, as well as for HS and to protect CI

National Map, Census TIGER Modernization, FEMA NFIP, and other mission-critical national initiatives need the same data

Unprecedented opportunity for collaboration to align roles, responsibilities, and resources

Yet, enormous challenge - no forum exists for this

HSIP Summit

Convened by Council for Excellence in Government Sponsored by NIMA and USGS National Map Engage all levels of government Forum for dialogue with potential local partners and

their professional organizations NSGIC September 10 Leaders Forum September 18 FGDC Steering Committee Workshop October 10

Some Practical Questions

What is and who determines best available data? What process will be used to determine which entities should

produce, steward, and distribute it? If data doesn’t exist, what resources will there be to produce it? How will the data be kept current? What intergovernmental mechanisms will exist to foster

collaboration? What will be the organizational and governance structure? What financial incentives and value exchange would be

necessary for local governments to consider it worthwhile to collaborate and share data?

HSIP Summit

Evaluate HSIP draft report Identify State and local needs Assess State and local capacity Identify gaps Prioritize efforts Begin to consider coordination strategy Leverage State and local Data Leverage mission-critical national initiatives

Colorado Plateau Colorado Plateau Data Coordination Group proposes an

NSDI Demonstration Project Develop a coordination strategy and process enabling

National Map, Census, other national missions and CPDCG to align roles, responsibilities and resources for data production, stewardship and distribution across all sectors

Start with boundaries layer and extend to other framework layers

Provide a functional template for the collaborative process that would apply as well to CI

WHAT IS AN I-TEAM ?

A Collaborative Process that Effectively and Efficiently

Organizes the Way We Produce and Steward A Portion of America’s Data Assets

Helps All Levels of Government Fulfill Their Missions

What Do I-Teams Do?

Address Institutional Barriers Identify most effective ways to collect, maintain and distribute Data Designate data stewards Develop Enterprise Plans (I-Plans) for Data Production and

How It All Fits Together Producers, users steward America’s data assets NSDI - the infrastructure Geospatial One-Stop - a Presidential initiative to complete

the infrastructure I-Teams - a process to help produce and steward data National Map, Census Modernization, NILS, MMI - Federal

programs using the I-Team process to produce products to fulfill essential national missions

The products are available through and become part of the infrastructure.
