Cooperative Addressing Initiative
Maryland Statewide Addressing Initiative: Immediate Project Goals
To provide a unified, statewide road centerline that supports addressing needs;
To provide counties with a means to automatically share an unrefined version (i.e., not for federal reporting) of their street centerline data;
To augment existing efforts of Maryland State Highway Administration’s federal reporting by improving data access via a centralized distribution node;
To advance ESRI’s mission in demonstrating the data synchronization capabilities of ArcGIS Server 9.2;
To increase the efficiency of statewide highway incident reporting.
Long Range Goal: To establish a single, statewide road centerline that
supports addressing, linear referencing, routing, and cartography.
Maryland Statewide Addressing Initiative: Project Benefits
Foundation for Maryland’s Spatial Data Infrastructure Unified, statewide addressing layer that supports geocoding
Counties can geocode beyond their borders States can leverage locally rich data consistently
Elimination of the need for manual data exchange via CD Ability to establish a persistent replica that is updated automatically Ability to extract data for a specified geography through a geodata
service Accessible by other applications that require geocoding
Combining Web services through a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach
Builds upon established SHA database schema
Maryland Statewide Addressing Initiative: Minimum Level of Effort Required By County

MD iMap
Maryland’s coordinated GIS base map View data provided on the map – in some cases the data they will see
is data from their own agency or jurisdiction that they otherwise have no access to
Build their own simple tools and applications that will use the basemap data and services or use the tools built by others
Provide their citizens and customers with the information necessary to help affect change in those communities

Virginia EMMA Whitepaper
EMMA deployed at multiple locations in Virginia Virginia Emergency Operations Center (VEOC) Charlottesville/Albemarle County/UVA City of Richmond
Integrated with WebEOC (except Richmond)
Purpose of whitepaper: To discuss the benefits and process of establishing a unified, regional
approach to EMMA GIS in Virginia
Virginia EMMA Whitepaper – Table of Contents
USGS CAP Grant – Landmark Structures
Purpose: to establish an automated, sustainable means to collect, document, assemble, and distribute landmark structures data to The National Map for Maryland and the National Capital Region
Project Partners: Baltimore, Frederick, and Montgomery Counties in Maryland, the district of Columbia, and Fairfax County, VA
Data themes: landmark buildings that would appear on USGS quads, such as schools, post offices, courthouses, fire stations, railroad stations, etc.
Goals: Primary: to assemble and contribute FGDC landmark structures data to
The National Map Secondary: to establish an automated, sustainable process that enables
additional jurisdictions to contribut structures data to The National Map using the process and standards developed through the project
UASI Proposal:Establishing a Coordinated Regional Geospatial Infrastructure
3 main areas of emphasis: Strategic planning for Regional Geospatial Capabilities Implementation of a Regional Emergency Geographic
Information Network (REGIN), and Creation of Prepositioned Collections of Geospatial Data and
Capabilities
UASI Proposal – Regional Geospatial Infrastructure
Establish Regional Collaboration of Geospatial Activities within the GIS community
Strengthen Information Sharing and Collaboration Capabilities Coordinate with Other Regional Interoperability Efforts Create GIS Capability Awareness Among Public Safety
Community Strengthen Planning and Community Preparedness Capabilities Foster ongoing growth and usage of geospatial data and
capabilities
HIRA Application on MWCOG Server
Project Goal from HIRA (2007):
To create a regional GIS capability that:– Supports the goals and priorities of the HIRA Project and GIS
Managers Subcommittee– Leverages existing data assets within the region – Maintains consistency with GIS efforts in DC, Maryland, and
Virginia– Provides a platform upon which additional capabilities can be
built
