Abstract
Using GIS to Help Government Executives & Citizens Make Great Decisions
Track: State and Local Government
Author(s): Edwin Gaskin
With the advent of Web-based GIS applications, government executives are asking for GIS tools to aid in critical decisions. The objective of a GIS should be that executives use GIS without drawing inaccurate conclusions or having frustrating experiences. A well-designed GIS application will lessen the executive request workload on GIS staff. This presentation will cover
- How executive expectations can be managed to ensure a positive experience with GIS
- How GIS staff should interact with executives to ensure program support and system use
- How Web-based GIS applications can be designed for government executives, citizen groups, and community organizations
