EX. ORD. NO. 12906. COORDINATING GEOGRAPHIC DATA ACQUISITION AND ACCESS: THE NATIONAL SPATIAL DATA
INFRASTRUCTURE
Ex. Ord. No. 12906, Apr. 11, 1994, 59 F.R. 17671, as
amended by Ex. Ord. No. 13286, § 25, Feb. 28, 2003, 68 F.R.
10624, provided:
Geographic information is critical to promote economic development, improve our stewardship of natural resources, and protect the environment. Modern
technology now permits improved acquisition, distribution, and utilization of geographic (or geospatial) data
and mapping. The National Performance Review has
recommended that the executive branch develop, in cooperation with State, local, and tribal governments,
and the private sector, a coordinated National Spatial
Data Infrastructure to support public and private sector applications of geospatial data in such areas as
transportation, community development, agriculture,
emergency response, environmental management, and
information technology.
NOW, THEREFORE, by the authority vested in me as
President by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States of America; and to implement the recommendations of the National Performance Review; to advance the goals of the National Information Infrastructure; and to avoid wasteful duplication of effort and
promote effective and economical management of resources by Federal, State, local, and tribal governments, it is ordered as follows:
SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS. (a) ‘‘National Spatial Data
Infrastructure’’ (‘‘NSDI’’) means the technology, policies, standards, and human resources necessary to acquire, process, store, distribute, and improve utilization of geospatial data.
(b) ‘‘Geospatial data’’ means information that identifies the geographic location and characteristics of natural or constructed features and boundaries on the
earth. This information may be derived from, among
other things, remote sensing, mapping, and surveying
technologies. Statistical data may be included in this
definition at the discretion of the collecting agency.
(c) The ‘‘National Geospatial Data Clearinghouse’’
means a distributed network of geospatial data producers, managers, and users linked electronically.
SEC. 2. EXECUTIVE BRANCH LEADERSHIP FOR
DEVELOPMENT OF THE COORDINATED NATIONAL
SPATIAL DATA INFRASTRUCTURE. (a) The Federal
Geographic Data Committee (‘‘FGDC’’), established by
the Office of Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) Circular No. A–16 (‘‘Coordination of Surveying, Mapping,
and Related Spatial Data Activities’’) and chaired by
the Secretary of the Department of the Interior (‘‘Secretary’’) or the Secretary’s designee, shall coordinate
the Federal Government’s development of the NSDI.
(b) Each member agency shall ensure that its representative on the FGDC holds a policy-level position.
(c) Executive branch departments and agencies
(‘‘agencies’’) that have an interest in the development
of the NSDI are encouraged to join the FGDC.
(d) This Executive order is intended to strengthen
and enhance the general policies described in OMB Circular No. A–16. Each agency shall meet its respective
responsibilities under OMB Circular No. A–16.
(e) The FGDC shall seek to involve State, local, and
tribal governments in the development and implemen-

§ 1457

tation of the initiatives contained in this order. The
FGDC shall utilize the expertise of academia, the private sector, professional societies, and others as necessary to aid in the development and implementation
of the objectives of this order.
SEC. 3. DEVELOPMENT OF A NATIONAL GEOSPATIAL DATA CLEARINGHOUSE. (a) Establishing a
National Geospatial Data Clearinghouse. The Secretary,
through the FGDC, and in consultation with, as appropriate, State, local, and tribal governments and other
affected parties, shall take steps within 6 months of the
date of this order, to establish an electronic National
Geospatial Data Clearinghouse (‘‘Clearinghouse’’) for
the NSDI. The Clearinghouse shall be compatible with
the National Information Infrastructure to enable integration with that effort.
(b) Standardized Documentation of Data. Beginning 9
months from the date of this order, each agency shall
document all new geospatial data it collects or produces, either directly or indirectly, using the standard
under development by the FGDC, and make that standardized documentation electronically accessible to the
Clearinghouse network. Within 1 year of the date of
this order, agencies shall adopt a schedule, developed in
consultation with the FGDC, for documenting, to the
extent practicable, geospatial data previously collected
or produced, either directly or indirectly, and making
that data documentation electronically accessible to
the Clearinghouse network.
(c) Public Access to Geospatial Data. Within 1 year of
the date of this order, each agency shall adopt a plan,
in consultation with the FGDC, establishing procedures
to make geospatial data available to the public, to the
extent permitted by law, current policies, and relevant
OMB circulars, including OMB Circular No. A–130
(‘‘Management of Federal Information Resources’’) and
any implementing bulletins.
(d) Agency Utilization of the Clearinghouse. Within 1
year of the date of this order, each agency shall adopt
internal procedures to ensure that the agency accesses
the Clearinghouse before it expends Federal funds to
collect or produce new geospatial data, to determine
whether the information has already been collected by
others, or whether cooperative efforts to obtain the
data are possible.
(e) Funding. The Department of the Interior shall provide funding for the Clearinghouse to cover the initial
prototype testing, standards development, and monitoring of the performance of the Clearinghouse. Agencies shall continue to fund their respective programs
that collect and produce geospatial data; such data is
then to be made part of the Clearinghouse for wider accessibility.
SEC. 4. DATA STANDARDS ACTIVITIES. (a) General
FGDC Responsibility. The FGDC shall develop standards
for implementing the NSDI, in consultation and cooperation with State, local, and tribal governments,
the private and academic sectors, and, to the extent
feasible, the international community, consistent with
OMB Circular No. A–119 (‘‘Federal Participation in the
Development and Use of Voluntary Standards’’), and
other applicable law and policies.
(b) Standards for Which Agencies Have Specific Responsibilities. Agencies assigned responsibilities for data categories by OMB Circular No. A–16 shall develop,
through the FGDC, standards for those data categories,
so as to ensure that the data produced by all agencies
are compatible.
(c) Other Standards. The FGDC may from time to time
identify and develop, through its member agencies, and
to the extent permitted by law, other standards necessary to achieve the objectives of this order. The
FGDC will promote the use of such standards and, as
appropriate, such standards shall be submitted to the
Department of Commerce for consideration as Federal
Information Processing Standards. Those standards
shall apply to geospatial data as defined in section 1 of
this order.
(d) Agency Adherence to Standards. Federal agencies
collecting or producing geospatial data, either directly

§ 1457a

TITLE 43—PUBLIC LANDS

or indirectly (e.g. through grants, partnerships, or contracts with other entities), shall ensure, prior to obligating funds for such activities, that data will be collected in a manner that meets all relevant standards
adopted through the FGDC process.
SEC. 5. NATIONAL DIGITAL GEOSPATIAL DATA
FRAMEWORK. In consultation with State, local, and
tribal governments and within 9 months of the date of
this order, the FGDC shall submit a plan and schedule
to OMB for completing the initial implementation of a
national digital geospatial data framework (‘‘framework’’) by January 2000 and for establishing a process
of ongoing data maintenance. The framework shall include geospatial data that are significant, in the determination of the FGDC, to a broad variety of users within any geographic area or nationwide. At a minimum,
the plan shall address how the initial transportation,
hydrology, and boundary elements of the framework
might be completed by January 1998 in order to support
the decennial census of 2000.
SEC. 6. PARTNERSHIPS FOR DATA ACQUISITION.
The Secretary, under the auspices of the FGDC, and
within 9 months of the date of this order, shall develop,
to the extent permitted by law, strategies for maximizing cooperative participatory efforts with State, local,
and tribal governments, the private sector, and other
nonfederal organizations to share costs and improve efficiencies of acquiring geospatial data consistent with
this order.
SEC. 7. SCOPE. (a) For the purposes of this order, the
term ‘‘agency’’ shall have the same meaning as the
term ‘‘Executive agency’’ in 5 U.S.C. 105, and shall include the military departments and components of the
Department of Defense.
(b) The following activities are exempt from compliance with this order:
(i) national security-related activities of the Department of Defense as determined by the Secretary
of Defense;
(ii) national defense-related activities of the Department of Energy as determined by the Secretary
of Energy;
(iii) intelligence activities as determined by the Director of Central Intelligence; and
