  1. State GIS Coordinator Comments • PAMAP is important to all levels of government in PA, academia, and business interests, feds • Sustainable funding is required but has not been achieved to date • Data policy between state and counties needs to be resolved • Flexibility is required so that counties and municipalities can buy up on accuracy

  2. State GIS Coordinator Comments • State data layer priorities are: • Complete, statewide orthophotography, at least 1:2,400 or 1:1,200 • Statewide, complete addressable road centerline for all roads in the state • Statewide parcels with zoning, landuse, land cover, etc. • Hydrography – rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, intakes and outfalls • Buildings – Public first? All eventually • These priorities reflect Homeland Security/First Responder needs and other Governor’s initiatives – workforce development, landuse, economic development

  3. State GIS Coordinator Comments • Pennsylvania GIS Data Sharing Standards document – Version 1.0 coming soon • Version 1.0 = same layers as visible on USGS 7.5’ quadrangles plus parcels • Expect new PGDSS versions annually at a minimum • BGT is the responsible party for PGDSS • DCNR and BGT are partners for PAMAP, but DCNR is the lead agency

  4. State GIS Coordinator Comments • Legislature will play a key role in creating sustainable funding sources at multiple levels of government • Currently working on draft resolution in support of PAMAP and GIS • Wireless 911 county plans can specify GIS and PAMAP as reimbursable, acceptable expenditures if they meet PAMAP/PGDSS/state standards • Same for SHSP county and RCTTF funds

  5. State GIS Coordinator Comments • DCNR has pledged $1.5M in matching funds for PAMAP for next year • Other agencies will be asked to step up and make a contribution • Additional funding sources will be sought • State strategy for counties to cover the entire state must be completed • Statewide, accurate DEM would make the orthophotography program cheaper and easier in the future

  6. State GIS Coordinator Comments • Strategy for serving PAMAP imagery and data layers must be crafted • Best would be a regional and a centralized approach • PAMAP needs a strategic plan crafted to identify and resolve these issues • DCNR and BGT will work together with other parties on the PAMAP/PGDSS strategy

  7. State GIS Coordinator Comments • Should have a good idea of total $$$ for Spring 2005 imagery program in next 90 days • Spring 2005 imagery program will be decided by 10/2004 • Product specifications • What region/counties • What vendors (ITQ) • Contracts let • Get early flight windows scheduled
