  1. Agenda • Geospatial preparedness -- what is it, why have it • Approach for developing the strategy • Points of contact

  2. Geospatial Preparedness: What Is It? • Improving preparedness and response capabilities by using remote sensing, mapping, predictive modeling, charting and geographic information systems • It involves streamlining the acquisition of geospatial data to enhance the ability to respond to threats, emergencies and disasters and to use in developing emergency operations plans and procedures

  3. Geospatial Preparedness: Why Is It Needed? • Perceived lack of coordination, including duplication of effort and costs, among federal agencies involved in geospatial activities • Mixed, conflicting or competing guidance and direction to state and local authorities from geospatial providers • To provide more accurate information for emergency plans and procedures

  4. Geospatial Preparedness: What are its expected benefits? • National interoperability and cost savings through the use of a common spatial reference system and open standards • Assured nationwide availability of spatial capabilities that are fundamental to the decision-making capabilities of emergency responders and managers • A shared foundation for analyzing and assessing all-hazards vulnerabilities of national critical infrastructure for homeland security and disaster mitigation

  5. Approach for developing the Geospatial Preparedness Strategy Strategy for Geo Preparedness Needs & Capabilities Assessment Defining Geo Prep Financing strategy Inter-governmental & Data sharing issues How to fill The gap Outreach Geo Preparedness in an Enterprise Architecture Framework Communicatingthe message
