Coordination with the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC)

NSGIC is an organization committed to efficient and effective government through the prudent adoption of geospatial information technologies. Absent an official State Geospatial Information Officer, the Director of CERES is California's representative on NSGIC.

CGIA participates in the annual NSGIC conferences to keep the California GIS community informed about what people in others states are doing and to convey California's voice in the formulation of national GIS initiatives.
