The Michigan Geospatial Steering Committee is composed of various leaders from the Michigan Geospatial Technology Community.   The mission of the Committee is to create initiatives and follow through on the resulting projects which are designed to drive down costs, reduce redundancy and create greater efficiencies in the use of geospatial technology by the citizens of Michigan. These initiatives will be based on cooperation, communication and the sharing of knowledge and expertise. They will expand the use of GIS by creating an ease of entry for those that don't currently use GIS and creating trust among those that do.
