4. MGISAC Administration

4.1 OGI Report – Tracy Schloss

Tracy: There is a lot of legislation with GIS components currently. There is a GIS position open with Department of Economic Development relating to Broadband that still needs filled.

NG911, Tracy attended a meeting yesterday with the Department of Revenue who needs a master address database for taxation purposes. Tracy believes we have a prime opportunity if we can get others to discuss the issue (of NG911 address locations). Current propositions include outsourcing to a vender to perform the necessary GIS work. We need to have the right conversation with the right people to move forward.

Nathan: This is very much a large outreach piece.

Tracy: This ties back to the community; it has a natural connection. Taxing authorities are worried about parcels, but addresses are what is needed.

4.2 MSDIS Report – Tom Vought

Tom was asked to repost the Broadband GIS position but it has moved from STL to Jefferson City.

Image server migration – HTTPS security certificate has been acquired for the new server. There was a brief server issue but it was remedied by IT. They are testing the server with a limited number of individuals who have been given the url directly.

MSIDS said goodbye to their interns who were integral in helping make the changes and updates the past few months.

4.3 Treasurer’s Report – Chris Barnett

Balance remains $21,017.94. Chris states that our financial records appear to reflect a calendar year reporting schedule, as we are a State advisory council, he suggests we begin a Fiscal year reporting schedule that would begin on July 1 of each year. There were no opposing comments, Nathan approved the change for future Treasury fiscal reports.

4.4 Membership Report – Wiley Howell (Kaleb Bauer)

34 total members (no change) with one vacancy (Eco Dev membership), the membership list will soon be refreshed and sent out. Quorum remains at 17.

4.5 By-Laws Report – Colin Duewell

Colin did not read any by-laws today. Colin mentioned that if any member would like to send suggestions or comments regarding the By-laws to please email him. The plan is to refine the “purposes” sections within the by-laws. He also confirmed that Ex-Officio members can vote.

5. Discussion Topics / Presentations

5.1 Presentations

Tony Spicci gave a presentation on the process to become certified as a GISP.

Scott Penman gave a presentation/ update on the NG911 Imagery QC process with Sanborn.

Discussion by subcommittee- 8 million budget for statewide NG911. Meeting with stakeholders, tax commission.

• Make sure the product we are hoping to produce will match with everyone’s data layers (baseline data)
• Working on a draft RP’s
• Incorporating not duplicating efforts
• Statewide 6 in Aerial imagery
• Separately, 10 million budget to upgrade911 to NG911 level
• In theory, money should be available July 1
• Not 100% clear how to issue the RP documentation for ARPA funds, auditing, etc. to assure compliance.

Steve Marsh – Q: Will funds be pushed to local governments to build data or clean existing data?

1. Statewide data QA/QC
2. Work with local government
3. Currently about half of counties have GIS

Intent: update data, then provide resources to update or engage a vendor. For counties with GIS; provide reimbursement for efforts. Details still in flux, depends how government wants that implemented. May become a standardized grant program. DED needs a real maps for NG911, better than block level. There are lots of incentives for county participation. Advocating partnership with counties. Encouragement/ Outreach approach.

How will you address areas where city data is better/more accurate than county data?

Saralyn: In Jackson county received data from individual cities would plug into the regional dataset.

Tracy- Haven’t heard you mention DOR, if you haven’t had discussion with them, you should. They are separate from the tax commission.

Scott – if you wouldn’t mind forwarding contact info for those individuals. We are meeting with the director of the department.

Tracy – will be a lot stronger coming from you than me. They are not realizing there’s all this activity going on that they could plug into.

Scott – Many aren’t interested in standardized tax map application

Tracy – you need to know what areas are coincident

Scott – hopefully we will know in the next few weeks how this will move forward and we will keep you updated.

6. Committee Reports

Nathan wants to reactivate committees. Please reach out to participate.

Tracy – would be helpful to explain what each does

Nathan – we will address that in the next meeting

Tracy – concerned with overlap of sub committees

Jenifer – we’ve rolled the conference committee into outreach

• Ability for multiple reviewers, can comment and add QC markers “as we go”
• Accurately and Adequately respond to them
• Explains tools to help with QC process, default issues descriptions, feedback and comments.

Buster S. – time frame in July?

Scott B. – Yes, we are working south which will be available in July, working on northern data, August 1^st timeframe.

Chris B. – Time? How much time are you expecting from the volunteers?
