Minnesota National Guard's Joint Operations

Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrintE-mail

MCGISA Members:

A request for data from the GIS coordinator for the Minnesota National Guard's Joint Operations Center.

" I have just started in this position and am looking for shapefiles for counties dealing with emergency management/ homeland security. These would include ambulance service areas, first responder areas, fire districts, E911 addresses, locations of critical infrastructure, or any other information you or your fellow GIS professionals feel would be pertinent.
Any information you would be able to provide will only be used for official business and may be shared with appropriate state/ federal agencies. If there are restrictions on any data shared, please ensure it is noted either in the metadata or when it's sent. "
If you have any questions, please let me know.

2010 Membership fees waived - Join today!

Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrintE-mail

 Due to the tough economy, the MCGISA Officers have unanimously decided to support waiving the annual membership fee for 2010. We’ve received emails indicating that membership dues have been cut from many local budgets, and no one wants money to be the reason you can’t join. Any fees already collected in 2010 will be applied to 2011.

So register today.  (  http://www.mcgisa.net/  ) We look forward to working together toward the improvement and enhancement of GIS in Minnesota.

Thanks!
