Track: Spatial Data Infrastructure
Authors: Stephen Lewis

In November of 2012, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) released a report entitled �Geospatial Information: OMB and Agencies Need to Make Coordination a Priority to Reduce Duplication�. The report was based on GAO interviews with several federal agencies, including the Department of Transportation. GAO found that �the long-standing problem of effectively coordinating federal geospatial investments to reduce redundancies has yet to be resolved�. This presentation will outline GAO�s recommendations to DOT and describe the actions that we are taking to meet them.
