GeoConnections is working to facilitate the exchange of location-based or "geospatial" data that may be used to support land and resource management by Aboriginal organizations. To that end, the program has just issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) that calls for a geospatial data needs assessment, as well as data identification and analysis.
Through research and a series of workshops, the successful proponent will conduct a needs assessment to determine the key geospatial datasets required to support land and resource management by Aboriginal communities. Further research and analysis will then be undertaken to determine the authoritative, closest-to-source custodians for those datasets.
The results of the needs assessment, and data identification and analysis will be used by the GeoConnections program to help develop an approach aimed at facilitating the exchange of geospatial data to support Aboriginal land and resource management and to further develop program activities related to one of GeoConnections' priority areas: matters of importance to Aboriginal people.
