2008 NSDI Cooperative Agreements Program projects announced

Category 5: Building data stewardship for The National Map and the NSDI will focus on fostering stewardships for either structures data or for transportation data through best business practices.  Primary needs for structures data are the geospatial location, classification, and other characteristics of manmade facilities, based on homeland security requirements.  Primary needs for transportation data are updates for features, attributes, and geometry to the baseline roads data developed through Census MAF/TIGER Accuracy Improvement Project (MTAIP) sources.  The data will be part of a national data inventory of consistent, seamless, integrated data that is continuously improved through the incorporation of data updates from the data community. 
Up to $50,000 per project, 4 awards.
