Geospatial One-Stop

Overview
The Geospatial One-Stop (GOS) is a Federal E-Gov initiative begun in 2002. Briefly, the goals of the GOS are to:


 * Develop a data exchange standard and models for geospatial data;
 * Create an interactive index and access to geospatial data held by the Federal Government and non-Federal organizations through a web portal; and
 * Encourage greater interaction between and among Federal, state, and local agencies plus academia and the private sector.
