Members Needed!

The Geo-Library Board has formed a GEO-Spatial Work Group and given it the following charge:

“This Geo-Spatial Work Group, working with the Policy Committee, will be charged with developing standards for open space, land use and land cover as well as defining the geospatial data needs and flows between local, county, State and federal governments.  It shall also take into consideration special requirements that not-for-profits, academia and the private sector may have.”

Members are needed immediately with an interest and expertise in developing consistent statewide data sets for ortho-imagery, high resolution topography and land cover. The committee’s work will be completed in one year. Meetings will be held via teleconference and or through the use of interactive web services. Demands on member’s time will be kept to a minimum with a maximum of two 1 hour meetings per month.
