Impact/Purpose:
As a grass-roots organization, the EPA Geospatial Quality Council relies on collaborators who share a common vision to improve the quality-related aspects of geospatial science in a cross-organizational, multi-disciplined environment. All the achievements have been accomplished through the selfless, non-compensatory efforts of its collaborators.
Description:
The EPA Geospatial Quality Council (GQC) was created to promote and provide Quality Assurance guidance for the development, use, and products of geospatial science. The GQC was created when the gap between the EPA Quality Assurance (QA) and Geospatial communities was recognized. All EPA Offices and Regions were invited to participate. Currently, the GQC consists of members from the EPA, the Department of Defense, the Department of Energy, the U.S. Geological Survey, and States, local governments, the private sector and the public sector.
