The states of Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington have agreed to partner with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on a component of the Virtual USA Initiative, led by the Science and Technology Directorate’s Command, Control and Interoperability Division (CID). The pilot will advance a technical and cultural shift in how the Nation shares information during an emergency.
The committee examines the relationships between land surveying, cartography, photogrammetry, and geographic information systems, in providing information to the public.
