the GIS S
    



    Thanks Carl,
    


    

    Will put the thinking cap on.

    The GIS SC met today and discussed the
role and mission of the SC in the context of the larger mission of the
EM TC. We captured a number of good ideas and my action was to put
them into some semblance of short paragraph. So, here is my first cut
at the GIS SC mission. I do like the first sentence
(structure).
    

     
    

    Anyway:
    

     
    

    The mission of the Geospatial
Information System (GIS) sub-committee is to provide a forum in which
requirements for and potential solutions to geospatial standards
issues as related to the broader work of the EM TC can be presented
and discussed. This work will include
surveys of existing standards, collection of requirements,
discussions, and recommendations to the broader EM TC for geospatial
components/elements for standards being developed by the EM TC.
The goal of this work to improve the value of emergency
management systems, including effective integration of geospatial
message content anywhere into the EM value chain.
    

     
    

    So have at it!
    

     
    

    Regards
