Goals by December NGAC Meeting1) A finished paper defining the NSDI metric system,
a first approximation represented herein, including analytical objectives implied by these metrics.
2) An implementation plan for the formal application of metrics to the NSDI development process.
3) A set of presentation slides representing the Subcommittee’s full report to be presented at the December NGAC meeting, assuming the full Committee authorizes continued development of the Subcommittee’s proposal.

Governance Subcommittee Vision
The Governance Subcommittee envisions the enduring benefits of effective coordination of interest groups and stakeholders in the development of an effective NSDI – an NSDI that provides all citizens ready access to society’s rich, multi-source geospatial data and technology assets, and promotes and leverages interdisciplinary techniques needed to address the increasingly complex natural and societal challenges facing the nation.

Governance Subcommittee Mission
To provide guidelines for defining the measurable scope of NSDI governance by analyzing high-level policy directives to formulate actionable performance objectives susceptible of evaluation with respect to achieving the NSDI Vision. This activity will define the components of the NSDI to be measured, and help set in motion a repeatable procedure for measuring and reporting progress.

Characteristics Of A “National” Structure: Realizing The NSDI Vision
1. Synergistic relationships among membership organizations representing traditional interest groups (FGDC, NSGIC, NACo, MAPPS, OGC, GITA, URISA, USGIF)

2. The roles and responsibilities of various sectors and stakeholders (government or private sector) in the geospatial community in the NSDI are well defined, understood and respected/honored, in order to eliminate or minimize confusion, conflict and inefficient duplication, as well as to enable the community to mobilize as a cohesive advocate for sound public policy.

3. National policy enacted that reflects and encourages the pursuit of the public value that can be created if the vision (vision proposed by the NGAC’s vision and corroborated by the community) of the NSDI is realized.

4. A new organizational structure must be created, as no existing organization has a business need that encompasses the breath of scope and stakeholders needed to achieve the vision of the NSDI.

5. The proposed national governance mechanism must be trusted and have the authority to achieve and maintain agreement (and adjudicate differences through consensus-based processes) across sectors on policies and procedures, funding, shared information needs, action to address these needs, and daily management of the NSDI as if a national, virtual enterprise.
