Data Sharing: An Enterprise Approach in Ohio

The Geographic Approach

Leveraging Geospatial Across the Enterprise


Agenda

• NSGIC• Data Sharing and Data Delivery in

Ohio– GIServOhio – Spatial Portal

• Summary


What is NSGIC?What is NSGIC?• NSGIC is an organization committed to efficient and NSGIC is an organization committed to efficient and

effective government through the adoption of effective government through the adoption of geospatial or mapping information technologies. geospatial or mapping information technologies.

• NSGIC members are actively involved in the NSGIC members are actively involved in the coordination and application of mapping coordination and application of mapping technologies in their States, the creation and technologies in their States, the creation and management of mapping data as well as information management of mapping data as well as information technology policy technology policy

• Membership - senior state geographic information Membership - senior state geographic information system (GIS) managers and coordinators, system (GIS) managers and coordinators, representatives from federal agencies, local representatives from federal agencies, local government, the private sector, academia and other government, the private sector, academia and other professional organizations. professional organizations.


We have common needs, but every state is different due to demographics, geography & “hot” issues


What NSGIC DoesWhat NSGIC Does• Provide a unified State voice on geographic Provide a unified State voice on geographic

•Develop solid GIS foundation (one geography)

•Sustained and maintained foundation

•Interoperability - Other organizations use foundation for their specific applications

•Create enterprise-wide perspective viewing information as a “community” resource

Benefits of Vertical IntegrationBenefits of Vertical IntegrationGeographic Data Sharing

Internal GIS Use

- more effective use of dollars- develop applications faster- improve customer satisfaction- provide better decision-making- utilize data produced by others- extend analysis beyond jurisdictions - resolve problems created by conflicting data- redirect resources associated with duplication- reduce dissemination costs by direct access


A collective voice brings change!• Coordinators can assist in several ways:Coordinators can assist in several ways:

– Communicate about other initiatives that Communicate about other initiatives that may impact your statemay impact your state

– Connect and Contact other GIS Connect and Contact other GIS ProfessionalsProfessionals

– Coordinate Data Resources and initiativesCoordinate Data Resources and initiatives

• Coordinators need your Participation and Coordinators need your Participation and ExpertiseExpertise– Get involved with your coordinatorGet involved with your coordinator– Work with organizations to defineWork with organizations to define statewide statewide

NSGIC InitiativesNSGIC Initiatives• 50 States Initiative – strengthens

coordination and collaboration within and without States

• Ramona GIS Inventory System • Imagery for the Nation – first step for

sustainable funding for imagery meeting requirements of multiple levels of governments
