THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES

Advisers to the Nation on Science, Engineering, and Medicine

The National Academy of Sciences is a private, nonprofit, self-perpetuating society of distinguished scholars engaged in scientific and engineering research, dedicated to the furtherance of science and technology and to their use for the general welfare. Upon the authority of the charter granted to it by the Congress in 1863, the Academy has a mandate that requires it to advise the federal government on scientific and technical matters. Dr. Ralph J. Cicerone is president of the National Academy of Sciences.

The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964, under the charter of the National Academy of Sciences, as a parallel organization of outstanding engineers. It is autonomous in its administration and in the selection of its members, sharing with the National Academy of Sciences the responsibility for advising the federal government. The National Academy of Engineering also sponsors engineering programs aimed at meeting national needs, encourages education and research, and recognizes the superior achievements of engineers. Dr. Charles M. Vest is president of the National Academy of Engineering.

The Institute of Medicine was established in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences to secure the services of eminent members of appropriate professions in the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health of the public. The Institute acts under the responsibility given to the National Academy of Sciences by its congressional charter to be an adviser to the federal government and, upon its own initiative, to identify issues of medical care, research, and education. Dr. Harvey V. Fineberg is president of the Institute of Medicine.

The National Research Council was organized by the National Academy of Sciences in 1916 to associate the broad community of science and technology with the Academy’s purposes of furthering knowledge and advising the federal government. Functioning in accordance with general policies determined by the Academy, the Council has become the principal operating agency of both the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering in providing services to the government, the public, and the scientific and engineering communities. The Council is administered jointly by both Academies and the Institute of Medicine. Dr. Ralph J. Cicerone and Dr. Charles M. Vest are chair and vice chair, respectively, of the National Research Council.

Preface

This report summarizes the findings and recommendations of the Committee on Spatial Data Enabling USGS Strategic Science in the 21st Century. The National Research Council (NRC) has published several reports that have helped to guide the development of the spatial data infrastructure (SDI) both in the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and nationally (1993, 1994, 1995, 2001, 2003, 2007). Those reports envisioned an SDI for the USGS and the nation and suggested the research needed to achieve that vision. Over the last decade, the USGS has conducted breakthrough research that has overcome some of the challenges associated with implementing a large SDI. This report is intended to ground those efforts by providing a practical roadmap to full implementation of an SDI to enable the USGS to conduct strategic science.

The committee was charged by the USGS to examine progress made in establishing spatial data infrastructures and the challenges faced by them in the context of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure. The committee examined the role that the USGS can play in continuing to ensure access to high-quality geospatial data and in supporting their use in scientific analyses and decision-making through an SDI construct. The committee was charged with three main tasks: identify existing knowledge and document lessons learned during previous efforts to develop SDIs and their support of scientific endeavors; develop a vision for optimizing an SDI to organize, integrate, access, and use scientific data; and create a roadmap to guide the USGS in accomplishing the vision within the scope of the USGS Science Strategy.

To address its charge, the committee examined SDI development in local, state, national, and international contexts and solicited advice from a variety of sources. Program managers and scientists in federal agencies, state organizations,

and academe provided programmatic information and user perspectives on future research directions. The committee also requested written feedback from leaders and data users in the geospatial community who generously provided guidance regarding what has and has not worked in SDI development; the major technical, organizational, cultural, policy, financial challenges still facing SDI development; and their own vision of an effective SDI at the USGS.

The committee was struck by the similarity of challenges faced by other organizations in developing their SDIs; the experiences cited in Chapter 3 on lessons learned are rich with examples of approaches that may be particularly valuable to the USGS. But a recurrent theme in nearly all the case studies was the crucial role of leadership in implementing an SDI. A strong, energetic, and inspirational leader with senior-level authority who stays with the program for the long term is the cornerstone of a successful program. The leader will be instrumental in executing the outside partnerships that are essential to the mission of the USGS and establishment of its SDI.

The names of respondents and other persons consulted by the committee are listed in Appendix B. Many of the conclusions and recommendations reached by the committee reflect ideas articulated in their thoughtful contributions; however, any errors or omissions are the responsibility of the committee, not of the external contributors. Finally, the committee expresses its gratitude to the NRC study director, Mark Lange, for his efforts in managing the committee and editing its report and to NRC staff Peggy Tsai, Jason Ortego, Eric Edkin, and Tonya Fong Yee, who assisted the committee extensively with Web site development, document tracking and assembly, and logistics.

Science is increasingly driven by data, and spatial data underpin the science directions laid out in the 2007 U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Science Strategy. A robust framework of spatial data, metadata, tools, and a user community that is interactively connected to use spatial data in an efficient and flexible way--known as a spatial data infrastructure (SDI)--must be available for scientists and managers to find, use, and share spatial data both within and beyond the USGS.

Over the last decade, the USGS has conducted breakthrough research that has overcome some of the challenges associated with implementing a large SDI. Advancing Strategic Science: A Spatial Data Infrastructure Roadmap for the U.S. Geological Survey is intended to ground those efforts by providing a practical roadmap to full implementation of an SDI to enable the USGS to conduct strategic science.
