Future Group Agenda Topics

• Industry Outreach: Finding ways for the NDSA Geospatial group to address industry with concerns of the community. Before the group can approach individual organizations it's important that we be very specific about our requests, whether at the policy level or at the technical level.
• File Format issues: One particular area of interest is exploring the use of GeoPDF and getting an idea of how much it is being used, especially outside of the federal space.
