The Changing Geospatial Landscape

In January of 2008, the Secretary of the Interior formed the National Geospatial Advisory Committee to provide advice and recommendations related to the management of Federal and national geospatial programs. This diverse committee is comprised of 28 experts from all levels of government, academia and the private sector.

In January 2009 the committee published a white paper - The Changing Geospatial Landscape - to describe the changes and advancements the community has witnessed over the past three-plus decades and to set a context from which in part we will base our future deliberations. DOWNLOAD
