Coordination with the United States Geological Survey (USGS)

CERES has a long-standing partnership with the USGS and supports such federal initiatives as the National Map, the Geospatial One-Stop portal, and other related work. Examples of this include USGS having funded a position at CERES to coordinate GIS activities and initiatives throughout California.

CERES and USGS continue to work together pooling funds and staff to coordinate the effective use of GIS at the local, state and federal levels.
