I'm thrilled to share some fantastic news from the Addresses and Buildings FIT!

After dedicated collaboration and hard work, the FIT has been making great strides in developing a comprehensive data standard and stewardship plan for Oregon's statewide address points dataset. Today, we're celebrating a major milestone - the Statewide Address Points dataset<https://geohub.oregon.gov/datasets/36a8e51b74cf4053ae2273f95006fc61_0> is now officially posted to GEOHub!

This achievement is the result of a tremendous team effort, with special thanks to Tom Elder from Enterprise Information Services, who led the address points workgroup with incredible dedication and expertise.

For more details on this exciting development, please see Tom's full message below.

Let's take a moment to celebrate this success and the continued progress in geospatial data governance across Oregon!

Subject: [Address_fit] New Oregon Address Points

Hello Team,

The Oregon Address Points dataset is now available on GEOHub!

https://geohub.oregon.gov/datasets/36a8e51b74cf4053ae2273f95006fc61_0

There are over 1.9 million address points covering almost the entire state and current as of the third quarter of this year. They are obtained from the 9-1-1 Public Safety Answering Points and assembled quarterly by the Oregon Department of Emergency Management. The data schema uses the new Oregon Address Point Data Standard v1.0<https://www.oregon.gov/eis/geo/Documents/Oregon%20Address%20Point%20Standard%20v1.0.pdf> and an overview of the metadata is attached too. Not every field has been populated yet but there will be improvements coming in future updates.

Please let us know if you have any questions, comments, corrections, or suggestions.

OGIC Committee Members, I hope this email finds you well and enjoying the Holidays! As I reflect on 2025, I want to focus on the significant accomplishments that were made, given the challenges we faced.

Committee Highlights
Our Data Sharing and Governance committee made great strides with completing consultation with all agencies identified in our first phase of data sharing. Overall, we're close to the halfway point to completing our Framework inventory. Great work team!  Our Outreach and Communications committee continues to refine OGIC's message through OGIC's website and developing  'one-pagers' which helps the broader geospatial community understand the role of OGIC.

Meetings and Workshops
As I look back on our four meetings, I think one of the highlights was our April meeting where we heard from Tom Elder on the Address Point Data Standard. Tom and the Addresses & Buildings Framework Implementation Team did significant work to build consensus and develop a meaningful framework and standard. OGIC unanimously endorsed the standard, which is now available on GEOHub<https://geohub.oregon.gov/pages/024b0880ea744c4cbdbfd37dc24046d8>. During our July meetings, I was impressed by the engaging work that was done to develop a long-term funding strategy for the Oregon statewide imagery program. This is a topic that is important to so many of us and will help guide and influence future funding discussions.

Leadership Transitions
2025 was a year of significant transitions for positions that supported OGIC and the geospatial community at large. Earlier this year Rachel Smith and Kathryn Darnell Helms moved on from their respective positions. While that transition was unexpected, we received strong support from EIS leadership and existing staff from the Data Governance & Transparency team who stepped into new roles. Erik Brewseter filled in as the interim CDO and Melissa was appointed to the GIO role. In the past few months Nate Ramsey has officially stepped into his role as Oregon's Chief Data Officer.
Starting in January, we'll have the next wave of OGIC Executive leadership transitions. Molly will roll off her role as Past Chair, and that is the role that I will transition into. Dan Brown will become our OGIC Chair. In October's meeting  OGIC nominated two candidates for Chair-Elect, Josh Tanner has accepted the nomination to serve as Chair-Elect in 2026. I look forward to making it official with a vote early in 2026. Please welcome Josh into his new role and thank Molly for her years of service to the OGIC Executive team. I'm really excited about the vision and leadership Dan, Josh, Melissa and Nate will bring to us!

p.s. keep an eye out in coming weeks for a membership survey from Melissa or Dan. We have the survey ready to go, just trying to figure out the mechanisms to get it to you all.

Best to you and your family this Holiday Season.

All-

The Executive committee has put together a survey for OGIC membership to gather feedback to identify opportunities to improve OGIC meetings, work planning, and member engagement. Based on this feedback, the OGIC Executive Committee will review the results, share a summary with the membership, and identify actions to strengthen OGIC's work and future planning.

IMPORTANT : This survey and its responses may be subject to public disclosure. Please focus all feedback on OGIC processes, structure, priorities, and work, rather than on individuals.

OGIC Membership Survey<https://forms.gle/PXrEEXquqCaZUyot6>

The survey is mostly multiple choice but also includes space for open comments at the end. We strongly encourage you to use this section! Both positive feedback (what's working well) and constructive suggestions (where we can improve) are valuable and appreciated.

Your voice matters-thank you for helping shape OGIC's future!
