- Role and Function
- Education and training:
Identify common GIS training needs and resources, and plan or make recommendations for the development and presentation of training in cooperation with other groups or agencies.
- GIS Software Deployment:
Serves as a GIS software contract managing body, and a source of recommendations, best practices for all DOI users. Bureaus will share software testing results and deployment methodologies.
- Knowledge Base:
Review and promote the implementation of an information data systems for sharing solutions and avoid redundancy in research and development of GIS and related applications and use. Explore possible merging of tools, documents, frequently asked questions, list serves, and other helpful databases.
- Help Desk:
Share and further develop DOI help desk capabilities based on DOI projected advanced level technical support needs.
- GIS Database Support:
Develop standard database models and specifications for DOI spatial data holdings and national data layers. Identify gaps, revision schedules, acquisition contracts, and new data types to satisfy DOI geospatial data requirements. Provide guidance on protocols for spatial data management, stewardship. Identify best practices employed by bureaus and programs.
- Spatially Enabling DOI Business:
Review and promote the implementation of information and application systems to promote geographic data as a framework for the broadest integration of databases and systems. Identify any significant redundancies among the systems. Explore possible synergies and future opportunities for collaboration between and among DOI initiatives/systems upon request of the CIO, ITMC, explores and analyzes issues and makes recommendations to address such.
- Communication Plan:
Facilitate and serve as a focal point for communications in DOI and with other agencies and external partners about GIS issues, programs, policies, budget initiatives.
- System Architecture:
Following the Federal Enterprise Architecture, the corresponding DOI teams, and the capitol planning and investment process the EGIM team will support and advise on Geospatial issues.
