NGAC Report: The Changing Geospatial Landscape

The report just popped up on the NGAC website (pdf). It’s a nice overview of the state of things. Might be valuable in connection with the efforts aimed at Congress. For those connecting dots:  Anne Hale Miglarese is NGAC Chairperson and a co-author of the white paper titled A Proposal for National Economic Recovery.

From the report:

The committee has developed this white paper to describe the changes and
advancements the community has witnessed over the past three-plus decades
and to set a context from which in part we will base our future deliberations. 
While this paper is not meant to be all-inclusive in chronicling the growth
of the industry, we do believe it captures the major milestones and identifies
several of the major issues that lie ahead. We encourage the reader of interest
to follow our deliberations and progress at http://www.fgdc.gov/ngac.
