The main objective of this workshop is to convene members of federal, states, research and non-governmental communities who are
engaged in generating, managing, distributing and using geospatial datasets for Great Lakes coastal zone issues. Particular emphasis
is placed on including representatives from the Great Lakes Coastal Zone Management community and from organization representatives
engaged in Lakewide Management Plans (LaMPS).
Discussion will focus on the substantial efforts put forth in developing comprehensive metadata compilation strategies, distributed
web mapping applications and integrating geospatial data tools such as the Great Lakes Information Network (GLIN) Maps and GIS and
the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC) Ramona GIS.
The tentative RDX Workshop preliminary agenda is as follows.
