A Proposed Course and Modular Curriculum For FGDC Standards Adoption and Implementation
Award Number 08HQAG0034, Category 6: FGDC-Endorsed Standards Implementation Assistance and Outreach
The objective of this program of work was to develop training and educational modules for the US National Grid, Orthoimagery, Cadstral, and Address Data Content standards as adopted by the FGDC. Each module was to contain 2-9 hours of instructional time, based largely in narrative videos, which may be strung together for use as a 3-semester hour academic course. This program of work proved exceptionally challenging because of unforeseen technical difficulties and an overambitious scope of work. It also proved to be tremendously rewarding as many of the final products are of a high quality, chiefly the orthoimagery and USNG components, and will likely find wide-spread use.
