Development of a Strategic Plan for Building the Virgin Islands Spatial Data Infrastructure

The goal of this project is to strengthen the effectiveness of building the U.S. Virgin Island Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) in support of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). The activities of this proposal will be directed by VIGIC. A contractor will be hired to facilitate the strategic planning process. The executive officers of VIGIC will serve on the strategic planning committee; however, other stakeholders from the federal government and private sector will be selected to serve on the strategic planning committee. The organized stakeholder sessions will include participants from private sector, non government organizations, utilities, local and federal agencies and academia.
