Alaska Statewide Digital Mapping Initiative
Goal: Map the entire State
for digital elevation
models and ortho-imagery
Make products available to
public / private interests
to support economic development

Key Points
Alaska needs a new basemap. The paper based maps from USGS are
no longer meeting our needs.
Spatial data infrastructure has significant economic benefits to
the community. Benefit-Cost ratios have been as high as
9 : 1
