<p class='title_3'>NASA Panel -- NSDI: Tower of Babel Aspiring to
Lingua Franca</p>
<p>Consistent means to share geographic data among all users
could produce significant savings for data collection and use
and enhance decision making. Executive Order 12906 calls for the
establishment of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI)
defined as the technologies, policies, and people necessary to
promote sharing of geospatial data throughout all levels of
government, the private and non-profit sectors, and the academic
community. <br />
The goal of this Infrastructure is to reduce duplication of
effort among agencies, improve quality and reduce costs related
to geographic information, make geographic data more accessible
to the public, increase the benefits of using available data,
and establish key partnerships with states, counties, cities,
tribal nations, academia and the private sector to increase data
availability. <br />
A panel of state, federal, academia and industry experts in
spatial data will lead a free-wheeling discussion regarding
survival in the spatial age with "data, data everywhere and yet
not enough to think." ....<br />
Please join us in brainstorming smarter ways for a precious
planet to do business.<br />
