<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I have posted the presentations from last week’s framework forum in Eugene on the GEO website at
<a href="http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/CIO/GEO/pages/standards/standards.aspx">http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/CIO/GEO/pages/standards/standards.aspx</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">To find them, go to the GIS Standards Forums section of that page, near the bottom, to find the February 5<sup>th</sup> event links.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">To summarize, we heard informational presentations on the Oregon Spatial Data Library (<a href="http://spatialdata.oregonexplorer.info/geoportal/catalog/main/home.page">http://spatialdata.oregonexplorer.info/geoportal/catalog/main/home.page</a>)
as well as a proposed historical railroad data standard, urban growth boundary stewardship plan, the address point repository project, and NENA Next Generation 911 data exchange standard.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">We considered an amended water and monitoring well data standard, which will be further revised and reviewed based on feedback heard during the forum.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">An extension to the administrative boundaries data standard for a statewide zoning data layer was presented, review of this amendment continues until March 8.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The FGDC Thoroughfare, Landmark, and Postal Address Data Standard was presented and will be moved forward to OGIC for adoption at their March 19 meeting. Note: a question arose during the forum regarding the
relationship (and potential overlap) between the FGDC address standard and the geographic names information system (GNIS). I searched the FGDC address standard and found that GNISFeatureID is an element attribute of address standard. See
<a href="http://meadow.spatialfocus.com/address_standard/p2_address_attributes_accordion.html#GNISFeatureID">
http://meadow.spatialfocus.com/address_standard/p2_address_attributes_accordion.html#GNISFeatureID</a></span><span style="color:#1F497D"> for more information on how GNIS and addresses are related.</span><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
