4. MGISAC Administration
4.1 Missouri OGI Report — Paul Wright

• Imagery We have requested from Quantum an online viewer for the imagery in order to more easily review it. No word on that progress as of today (7/7).
  There are no updates on the plans for flying the eastern section of the state. Hope to have an update on this by next month.
• Data Quality OGI had a meeting with Tim Robyn and the state data center, security and app dev management to discuss overall data quality. OGI has been running into data quality issues of late in various projects. The meeting was to discuss these and other related issues and determine a course of action.
  Tim requested that information relating to the creation of a data quality position be developed. This should be completed in a couple of weeks.
• Biofuel Infrastructure Project (BIP) From Office of Administration-General Services and Department of Agriculture, they are interested in a map to help determine where there are E-85 capable vehicles in the state fleet versus where E-85 public fueling sites are located. The goal is to determine where new infrastructure would be beneficial and would help Missouri make the case to the USDA for funding.
  A meeting was scheduled for 7/2/15 to discuss this request. ITSD-GIS requested the current data for review prior to the meeting. Cindy Dixon, OA-GS, provided that data on 6/30/15. ITSD-GIS used that data to create a draft map of vehicle locations and E85 fueling sites. This map was passed along, on 6/30/15, to the meeting attendees as a starting point for discussing specific needs.
  The draft map that ITSD-GIS provided just needs a few adjustments based on the meeting conversation. A new draft map was completed 7/2/15.

4.2 MSDIS report — Mark Duewell

1. MSDISWEB-TC-S Server update: The backup web server (the new MSDISWeb-TC-S, the “s” designation is for secondary) is still experiencing issues. We solve one problem, test it online, and discover another. The FTP issue is fixed, but we are researching a new problem with the geoprocessing tool for the clip & download on the GeoPortal. Testing will continue until it passes all tests.
2. MSDISIMAGERY servers update: The current IMAGERY services are on the MSDISImagery-NN and MSDISIMAGERY-TC servers. The new virtual servers IMAGERY-TC-P and IMAGERY-TC-S have been spun up and tested internally. They will be tested externally sometime this week – watch the MSDIS-News list server and email for announcements regarding this event. At this time, we do not think the links will change or that users will need to make any changes to their service connections.
3. Jason Hinsen reports that he the updates to the MOLiDAR tool are built into the new virtual imagery servers (see #2 above) – as soon as they go online the updates should be available to all. Martin Wills will begin building a web page for access to the county-wide LiDAR datasets that Liz Cook has created. This user interface will function similarly to the user clickable county map for the current 2’ and NAIP imagery.

Had a server issue after Windows updates. Permissions are changing on a folder affecting ArcGIS Server. Has caused issues on imagery. Apologies for the inconvenience, we are getting better at watching for it.
4.3 Treasurer's report — Liz Cook

Income	None	$0.00

4.4 Membership report — Tony Spicci
All members whose terms were expiring on June 30, 2015 should have received letters renewing their term for another two years. Question from M. Duewell about old issues with reaching quorum and council size. Spicci replied that meeting quorum has not been an issue and that attendance issues have generally not been a problem. Anyone interested in joining the council should show up. Discussion about finding a replacement representative for the Missouri Society of Professional Surveyors.

Spicci raised the topic of which month(s) in 2017 to seek available conference hotels. M. Duewell voiced concern about the recent trend of winter weather. Discussion of pros/cons of months and locations. Agreement to stick with seeking facilities in the Central Missouri region (Columbia/Jefferson City and Lake of the Ozarks).
