The Department of the Interior is seeking nominations to its National Geospatial Advisory Committee.

“The National Geospatial Advisory Committee provides a valuable service in supplying critical advice on important geospatial issues and in working together with the FGDC to pursue the common goal of advancing the use and effectiveness of geospatial information.”
