Abstract:
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) collects and maintains necessary geospatial data to meet our mission in accordance with the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006, as amended (31 U.S.C. 6101); Geospatial Data Act of 2018 (43 U.S.C. chapter 46, 2801–2811); National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (Public Law 104–113); Open, Public, Electronic, and Necessary (OPEN) Government Data Act; Title II of the Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act of 2018 (Public Law 115–435); OMB Circular A-16, “Coordination of Geographic Information and Related Spatial Data Activities”; OMB Circular A-119, “Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities”; and OMB Circular A-130, “Managing Information as a Strategic Resource.” Geospatial data identifies and depicts geographic locations, boundaries, and characteristics of features on the surface of the earth. Geospatial data includes geographic coordinates (e.g., latitude and longitude) to identify the location of earth’s features, and data associated to geographic locations (e.g., land survey data and land cover type data). The Service’s organizational ArcGIS online program (AGOL), accessed at http://fws.maps.arcgis.com, is an easy place to share data with the public and partners, as well as internally among Service staff. It can also be used to build and deploy mobile-enabled online maps, applications, and services for geographic information systems (GIS) users and non-GIS users alike. Sensitive data is restricted from public access via an internal-facing intranet version of AGOL. Moreover, because the system contains only controlled unclassified information (CUI) that would be designated as low impact under the Federal Information Security Act (FISMA; 2002), no personally identifiable information (PII) is allowed within the system. The AGOL platform enables the Service to effectively manage geospatial data resources and technology to successfully deliver geospatial services in support of the Service’s mission. Data collected through AGOL enables improved visualization, analysis, interoperability, modeling, sharing, and decision support. The benefits include increased accuracy, increased productivity, and more efficient information management and application support.
