A report released last month by the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC) showed that states are not fully prepared to adopt critical emerging technologies like next-generation 911 and geo-enabled election systems. In its biennial Geospatial Maturity Assessment, the report found that while no state is failing when it comes to GIS, the progress is spotty and there is an urgent need for all states to improve.
