While our primary focus is on local government and collaborating with state and federal planning partners like the Georgia Geospatial Information Office and Census Bureau, we also actively engage the broader community through academic and nonprofit entities. The purpose of the group is to pursue geospatial technology in helping make our communities more livable, promote knowledge sharing; highlight local initiatives; foster regional collaboration; and encourage open data.
