Paper
Preparing a Data Distribution Policy for Local Government
Track: State and Local Government
Author(s): Bruce Joffe

Under FGDC CAP grant sponsorship, the Open Data Consortium project, in conjunction with the California Geographic Information Association, offers a workshop to facilitate understanding and implementation of the model data distribution policy for local government. The workshop will explain local data distribution issues such as legal requirements, copyright, licensing, liability, security restrictions, privacy considerations, metadata maintenance, data recipients and distribution methods, as well as the controversial issue of data sales.
