Policies
• Which groups/individuals are trusted to post what kind of content? Can they post/edit directly? (Right now = Board Members)
• Goal is to make sure IGIC “values” and “reputation” preserved - whatever that is!
• Can technologically add element of “submit for approval” if needed (but need proper oversight, next slide)
Proper Oversight
• Committee, Subcommittee, or Officer should report/task at every Board meeting
• Content master, editor, driver to get good stuff on regularly?
• Special email ([email protected]?) for submissions for those who can post direct and to get permissions to post
• Officers (especially secretary) should post materials direct
Content Ideas
• Live Meeting Feeds
• GISCorps Module
• Crowdsourcing data
• Sell GIS to State via promotion
• Advocacy Corner
• Map Showcase
• Profile GISers
• Case studies of GIS uses in Iowa
