Abstract
 GIS Consortium Success Model to Support Local Governments in Aceh Track: Benefit of GIS Author(s): Makmur Widodo, Yakob Ishadamy, Helmut Krist, Richard Kidd GIS has played an important role in the rehabilitation and reconstruction of Aceh after the devastating effects of the 26 December 2004 tsunami. The number of responding agencies both national and international have had a positive impact on the availability of spatial information in the region. However, this data will not be useful without the support of qualified staff who are able to continue operating, maintaining and analyzing this data in the future, after the aid community has left the area. A GIS community in Aceh, named the GIS Consortium, was established 29 April 2006. This consortium is comprised of more than 20 different organizations, both local and international. The members are volunteer and have come together to share their knowledge with the local government in the province by developing GIS capacity building programs, enabling and enhancing GIS services to local communities, and supporting the implementation of a Spatial Data Infrastructure.
