2: Geospatial Resources
Ensure Accountability and Effective Development and Management of Federal Geospatial Resources Other Information:
Effective management of geospatial investments will enable the Federal government and its partners to control costs, streamline
services, make decisions on eliminating duplication, save taxpayer dollars, and drive efficiency across the Federal government.
The OMB Circular A-16 Supplemental Guidance provides guidelines for implementing a portfolio management approach to Federal
geospatial investments and managing National Geospatial Data Assets (NGDA) government-wide. This approach will allow identification
of datasets that are most critical for meeting the needs of government and stakeholders. This strategic goal describes the
actions the Federal geospatial community will take to implement portfolio management to more effectively plan geospatial data
collection efforts, assess the status of NGDAs, and minimize duplicative investments.
