Schwarzenegger Calls for Task Force in California for expanded GIS Use

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger yesterday called on his CIO, Teri Takai, appointed last December,  to create a task force to help agencies and departments use of geographic information systems to improve public safety. What is the technology like?” kind of like Google Earth, but better.”

I thought California was going to get a GIO. What’s the status on that? From the California GIO webpage: “Please note that California does not currently have a formerly established Geospatial Information Office (GIO). This page was put up at the request of the acting State CIO, Clark Kelso, in anticipation of the day when this might become a reality.” Sounds like this is a good time!
