Enhancing Geospatial Outreach Mechanisms for Effective Community Development

This review by Jeff Hamerlinck discusses potential outreach mechanisms in the geospatial domain, focusing on the integration of diverse programs and partnerships. Highlighting concepts such as Big E and Little E extension, the paper explores the roles of land grant, sea grant, and space grant institutions in fostering community development and practical applications of geospatial technology. Emphasis is placed on the importance of collaboration among federal, state, and academic entities to achieve sustainability, livability, and resiliency in local projects.
