Abstract
Partnerships for GIS Implementation: The Wyoming NRCS Experience
Track: Ecology, Archaeology, and Conservation
Author(s): Shandy Bittle, Jennifer Hayward
Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has developed two shared GIS positions in Wyoming. The first partnership was in Pinedale, Wyoming, between the NRCS, Forest Service, and the BLM. The second was developed in Wheatland, Wyoming, between the NRCS, Platte County Resource District, and Platte County--the second poorest county in Wyoming. The paper explains how these partnerships were developed, how they function, the benefits each partner receives from the positions, and how future shared GIS positions could be created benefiting entities could not otherwise afford to have a
full-time GIS position on their own.
