Projects at Rural GIS Sites

Stakeholder Assessment

RGIS Regional Office: South Georgia, South Georgia

Project Dates: 2006/2007

Synopsis:

RGIS-SG has served in varying capacities for rural local governments over several years. While the benefits of some of our projects have been immediate and direct to local governments, the nature of spatial technologies is one that makes it sometimes difficult to quantify what the impact would be if they were not utilized. One way to identify the long-term success rates of our assistance and deployments over the years is to revisit communities and view our work with the advantage of hindsight. We must include involved local officials in interviews and discussion groups and encourage exploration of our past projects for their value in today’s terms and solicit input regarding our future focuses. We will host a meeting of statewide GIS officials and local representatives from all levels of government services delivery.
