Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC); Public Comment on the Proposal to Develop the ``FGDC Standard for a Geologic Data Model'' as a Federal Geographic Data Committee Standard

The FGDC is soliciting public comments on the proposal to develop a ``FGDC Standard for a Geologic Data Model.'' If the proposal is approved, the standard will be developed following the FGDC standards development and approval process. If the standard is adopted by the FGDC, it must be followed by all Federal agencies collecting geologic data directly or indirectly, through grants, partnerships, or contracts. In its assigned Federal leadership in the development of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI), the FGDC recognizes that FGDC standards must also meet the needs and recognize the views of State and local governments, academia, industry, and the public. The purpose of this notice is to solicit such views. The FGDC invites the community to review the proposal and comment on the objectives, scope, approach, and usability of the proposed standard; identify existing related standards; and indicate their interest in participating in the development of the standard.
