With the proven track record of GIS in providing high returns on investment, Standards for Success shows how federal government agencies are using this powerful technology to streamline business processes, foster collaboration and communication, provide sound decision support, and optimize resource management. GIS plays an central role in making government work more effectively and more efficiently, and the powerful examples in Standards for Success make it easy to understand why. Standards for Success presents a rich array of case studies describing how GIS is helping federal agencies achieve their goals. The U.S. Department of Agriculture, U.S. Geological Survey, the Air Force, and the Navy use GIS to consolidate time-consuming steps into simple automated tools, freeing personnel from complex and repetitive processes and allowing them to concentrate on creative solutions. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, U.S. Department of Education, and the Los Alamos National Laboratory have embraced GIS as a tool for fostering teamwork and building necessary, lasting relationships. At the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and the Environmental Protection Agency, GIS provides indispensable decision support by enabling staff to assemble and process data from disparate sources, illustrate workflows, model dynamic natural and man-made events, and easily recognize changing situations by visualizing long-term effects of actions. The implementation of GIS for efficient resource management at NASA and the U.S. Forest Service has helped maximize investments, control inventories, and avoid costs.
