AbstractMaryland’s Statewide Addressing Initiative Track: State and Local Government Author(s): Ashley Buzzeo, Marshall Stevenson Identifying address locations for emergency preparedness, along with improving acquisition and access to the information, is mission-critical for federal, state and local government agencies throughout Maryland and the Nation. To respond to this need, the Maryland State Geographic Information Committee (MSGIC), in cooperation with the Towson University Center for GIS (TU-CGIS) and Esri, led an initiative to coordinate distribution of road centerline address data for the entire State of Maryland. Using Esri’s ArcGIS Server 9.2 data replication, Maryland counties share their road centerline data producing a consistent, statewide product that provides central and unrestricted access to the most current centerline data for emergency preparedness and response.
