NSDI Framework - Missouri Spatial Data Information Service

Current Situation for Geospatial Data
Nationally there is a need for several
basic themes of data
Where data exists, it is not widely used
or shared due to its being
undiscoverable
Where data is needed, it does not exist,
is incomplete, or out of date
2
Commonly Used Data Themes
Q1: Do you use these themes of digital data?
(If no, do you foresee that you might need them?)

What is the framework?
Data backbone for the NSDI
• Data
• Procedures
• Technology
A way to facilitate:
•
•
•
•
•
Production of geographic data
Use of geographic data
Reduction of operating costs
Improve service
Decision making
6
Framework Concept
Within a
geographic area,
organizations that
produce and use
geospatial data
Collaboratively
build and
maintain
commonly used
“framework” data
To provide a
common base for
many uses
Organizational
Functions
State
Agencies
Local
Agencies
Regional
Agencies
Federal
Agencies
Utilities
Private
Companies
Governmental Units
Hydrography
Geodetic
Control
Cadastral
Transportation
Spatial
Analysis
Elevation
• Data development,
maintenance &
integration
• Data access
• Data management
• Coordination
• Executive guidance
• Resource management
• Monitoring & response
Digital orthoimagery Boundaries
Base for
Other Data
Finished Maps
Primary Purposes for Framework
Provide a foundation to which spatial
information and attributes can be
added.
Provide a base on which other themes
can be compiled
Provide the Spatial Reference for
results of an analysis.

Provide foundation for linking

What Layers of Information are
Currently Included?
Geodetic control
Digital orthoimagery
Elevation data
Transportation
Hydrography
Governmental units
Cadastral (reference system and public
12
parcels)
Technical Characteristics
Feature-based, minimum attribution
Unique feature identifiers
Transactional updating
Common means of referencing position
Integration:
• horizontally, vertically & thematically
Multiple resolutions
Distributed data holding
Archival and use of historic data
13
Approach Provides For Data
Maintenance Through Transactions
Provides a means to:
• Allow the update of data holdings without
risking/compromising existing data
investments
• Minimize the effort required to update a data
holding

Business Context
“to be widely used and useful”
Avoid restrictive practices:
• No exclusive distribution arrangements that
inhibit timely and equitable access
• Avoid restrictions on reuse or redistribution
of data
• Charges set to recover cost of service only.
Availability in nonproprietary format(s).
Conform to standards.

Efforts to Extend Framework
NSDI Partnership Program
CAP & FDPP 44 projects to date
17
Efforts to Extend Framework
NSGIC Survey in progress of
“framework like” data available at
state/local levels

Characteristics for building a
successful framework
Based on common interests and needs
Implement current “best business
practices”
Built from the ground up
Based on good organizational selfassessment
Being pro-active; know change factors,
customers & opportunities
