Federal Geographic Data Committee
More Information
The Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) is an interagency committee that promotes the coordinated development, use, sharing, and dissemination of geospatial data on a national basis. This nationwide data publishing effort is known as the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). The NSDI is a physical, organizational, and virtual network designed to enable the development and sharing of this nation's digital geographic information resources. FGDC activities are administered through the FGDC Secretariat, hosted by the U.S. Geological Survey.

These web pages provide information related to the development, standards and implementation of the Cadastral National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). This site supports the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) Subcommittee for Cadastral Data and serves as a focus for coordinating national cadastral, parcel, and land records efforts. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is charged with coordinating cadastral information under OMB Circular A-16.
More Information
The USGS has a well-deserved reputation for the collection, interpretation, and distribution of geologic, hydrologic, cartographic, and biologic data. Although the Bureau's mission is primarily domestic in focus, many of the datasets we develop are global. These include the recently released Global Digital Elevation Model (DEM), a wide variety of remotely sensed products, data on world oil, gas, coal, and mineral deposits, biodiversity, and geologic hazards (earthquakes, volcanoes, and landslides).
