4.1 Missouri OGI Report Paul Wright

• Current Activities/Accomplishments
  • Beginning interviews for the GIS Specialist position. Should have results third week of October.
  • Communications Plan approved. Prioritized items. Detailing tasks and setting up for capturing associated metrics.
  • OGI metrics: OHD, web analytics, survey, social media (future)
  • Reviewed the Map Community Interest area of mo.gov with ITSD web group. Ensure we have accurate data.
  • Developing a ‘maps of interest’ site for maps developed by K-20, other. Use as a draw to the site. If you have suggestions of what we might display there, let us know.
  • Enterprise Architecture Review – gathering survey information back from state departments which will help to determine where we need to be. ESRI will provides a few days of face-to-face meetings with other selected state entities to get details from those who might not utilize GIS services at this point. They will then develop a plan of what our architecture should be in order to support current and future demands. This will also help with determining training plans.
• Coordination Activities
  • First revamped quarterly SAG meeting will be held Oct 20, 1-2PM, Room 400/Truman. It will be an overview of the OGI.
  • We will conduct a short survey of needs at the SAG meeting
  • Sent a general GIS survey out to get feedback on GIS activities and needs. Asked for response by COB 10/17.
  • GIS Day Proclamation: requested a proclamation from the Governor’s Office in support of GIS Day on Nov 16th.

Haithcoat: State imagery contract is proceeding as quickly as possible; this is a new contract type for the State.
4.2 MSDIS report Mark Duewell
Improvements to LiDAR data visibility on the new web site. In discussions with Wash U about providing FTP access to their set of LiDAR data; changes should be in place over the semester break. New geoportal search engine does not stem keywords (road <> roads); looking into solution. Structures project in Boone county nearly complete. Continuing to look into geoportal data download approaches that do not depend on email. Have decided to leave the ArcIMS server running until it fails. Discussion. Old server will be taken offline at the end of the calendar year. Servers will then become backup of the Geoportal. Haithcoat: Looking into leveraging Facebook and Twitter.
4.3 Treasurers report Leslie Chamberlin
Current balance is unchanged at $26,644.39. Expecting an expenditure this month toward the regional Symposium.
4.4 By-Laws Liz Cook
Cook: changes were not distributed in time for a vote, but want to have the discussion this month so that any changes can be distributed in time for a vote next month. Haithcoat: modeled changes on NSGIC’s bylaws. Discussion about change from incumbent executive offices model (chair/vice-chair) to rotating offices model (past-chair/chair/chair-elect). Discussion about purpose and scope of ex officio offices. Development will continue in the Strategic Planning meeting.
4.5 Membership report Tony Spicci
Kevin Kuhlmann is the Sanborn representative. Amber Reynolds is replacing Steve Marsh as the Jackson County representative. The membership committee recommends that MARC be given membership on MGISAC represented by Steve Marsh.

Motion approved by vote.
5. Project Update/Action Items
5.1 Ohio LBRS White Paper Paul Wright
Background of white paper. Discussion. Sentiments expressed include: starting small; finding out if there is a geographic pattern to the 13 counties in Ohio that did not participate; it all comes back to the Sunshine law; you just have to do something; find a champion. Wright will divide issue into subtopics.
5.2 Cadastral Mapping Standards Meeting GIS Subcommittee Representatives
Johnson: current standards need to be redone, recast as guidelines. Existing standards are significantly more involved than other states’ and IAAO.
