13. Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA)
“ The purpose of the FEA is to
transform government such that it
becomes citizen-centered, results
oriented, and market-based. ”
OMB Circular 30
14. Geo-Enablement: Potential
“The coupling of geospatial data, services and
technologies with conventional data, services
and technologies can be one of the most
significant enablers of improved decision making
within business operations.
It increases performance of key mission
requirements across all levels of governments. ”
