URISA’s GIS Management Institute Originated with basic questions: What causes variation in municipal GIS operations?

Why do some GIS operations fail?

Each municipality is unique

City and county business focus often varies

Population

Nature and level of economic development

GIS development history and funding

GIS operational budget and staffing

GIS strategic plan

Municipality’s institutional expectations

GIS operational vision – or lack of vision?

URISA’s GIS Management Institute Originated with basic questions: What causes variation in municipal GIS operations?

Why do some GIS operations fail?

Outcome: URISA’s GIS Capability Maturity Model

Maturity for the model indicates progression of an organization towards GIS capability that maximizes:

Potential for the use of state of the art GIS technology

Commonly recognized quality data

Organizational best practices appropriate for municipal business use

The Municipal GIS Capability Maturity Model assumes two broad areas of GIS operational development:

Enabling capability

Execution process ability

See: URISA Proposes a Local Government GIS Capability Maturity Model: http://www.esri.com/news/arcnews/winter1011articles/urisa-proposes.html

URISA’s GIS Management Institute

Originated with basic questions:

Is there a GIS profession?

2010 -URISA Commits to Develop Tier 9: The Geospatial Management Competency Model

URISA GMCM Core Team: David DiBiase Patrick Kennelly Greg Babinski

Coordination with USDOLETA URISA’s GMCM delivered to DOLETA June 8, 2012

http://www.urisa.org/gmcm_review

URISA’s GIS Management Institute Originated with basic questions: Is there a GIS profession? What is the GIS Profession’s Moral Imperative? Does GIS provide value to society?

Is There a GIS Profession: ArcNews, Summer 2012: Strengthening the GIS Profession, by David DiBiase What is the Moral Imperative of the GIS Profession?

The GIS profession uses geographic theory, spatial analysis, and geospatial technology to help society manage the Earth’s finite

space, with its natural resources and communities, on a just and sustainable basis for the benefit of humanity.

Does GIS Provide Value to Society? ArcNews, Summer 2012: King County Documents ROI of GIS (minimum $776 million net benefit over 18 years, $87 million in 2010) http://www.esri.com/news/arcnews/index.html

Page 7: URISA’s GIS Management Institute · 7/24/2012  · GIS operations are maturing – or they should be GIS operations manage large capital investments GIS operations require large

GIS operations are maturing – or they should be

GIS operations manage large capital investments

GIS operations require large operating budgets

GIS operations deliver huge returns on investment

Local agency leaders and managers have a moral imperative to deploy GIS for effective government services

Geospatial technology is complex, continues to evolve, and continues to provide new opportunities

The management of municipal GIS operations is complex, evolving, and requires a scientific, professional approach

URISA’s GIS Management Institute What is the Business Need?

Page 8: URISA’s GIS Management Institute · 7/24/2012  · GIS operations are maturing – or they should be GIS operations manage large capital investments GIS operations require large

Is GIS management distinct from other types of municipal management?

The management of GIS requires knowledge skills and abilities that set it apart from and above many other management domains, due to its complexity, importance for effective services, and integrative role in local government enterprise operations.

The notion that GIS operations should be under the supervision of licensed engineers or surveyors (as some have suggested) is laughable.

The Ah-ha Moment:

GIS operational process maturity (aka the GIS Capability Maturity Model)

and

GIS management capability (aka the Geospatial Management Competency Model)

Can both best be defined against a body of geospatial management best practices and standards, or the GIS

Management Body of Knowledge

URISA’s GIS Management Institute What is the Business Need?

Page 10: URISA’s GIS Management Institute · 7/24/2012  · GIS operations are maturing – or they should be GIS operations manage large capital investments GIS operations require large

Develop the URISA GIS Management Body of Knowledge (GMBOK)

Maintain the URISA Geospatial Management Competency Model (GMCM)

Maintain the URISA GIS Capability Maturity Model (GCMM)

Accredit the capability and maturity of county, city, and regional GIS operations against the GCMM

Accredit GIS Management educational programs for alignment with the URISA GMBOK and GMCM

URISA’s GIS Management Institute What will the URISA GIS Management

Institute do?

Page 11: URISA’s GIS Management Institute · 7/24/2012  · GIS operations are maturing – or they should be GIS operations manage large capital investments GIS operations require large

Include an advisory council from other geospatial management professional stakeholders

Include international stakeholders

Advance the future certification of GIS Managers, via a GISP-M, developed by GISCI in coordination with URISA’s GMI and based on the GMCM

URISA’s GIS Management Institute

What will the GMI do with others?

Page 12: URISA’s GIS Management Institute · 7/24/2012  · GIS operations are maturing – or they should be GIS operations manage large capital investments GIS operations require large

URISA developed and launched GISCI

URISA developed and manages GISCorps

URISA has 50 years of study, experience & intellectual capital related to GIS development and management

URISA has a portfolio of publications and educational offerings, including the ULA, that can be aligned to support GIS management

URISA has a history of 31 years of ESIG awards that form an initial resource for recognizing GIS management best practices

URISA has designated the development of the GIS Management Institute as a priority initiative

URISA’s GIS Management Institute Why URISA?

Page 13: URISA’s GIS Management Institute · 7/24/2012  · GIS operations are maturing – or they should be GIS operations manage large capital investments GIS operations require large

URISA’s GIS Management Institute Who will use the GMI, and why?

Babinski’s Theory of GIS Management: As GIS Operational Maturity Improves, ROI Increases

Page 14: URISA’s GIS Management Institute · 7/24/2012  · GIS operations are maturing – or they should be GIS operations manage large capital investments GIS operations require large

GIS Managers – to assess their competency against the GMCM and GMBOK and plan their professional development

Organizations with GIS Operations – to assess their capability and process maturity by becoming GMI accredited against the GMBOK via the GCMM

Geospatial professionals – to assess and align their own practices against the GMBOK

GIS management educational programs – to assess and refine their curriculum by becoming GMI accredited against the GMBOK, GMCM & GCMM

GIS management consultants – to assess and refine their practices against the GMBOK, GMCM & GCMM

In the future, GIS managers will use GMI products and services to prepare for achieving GISCI administered GISP-M

URISA’s GIS Management Institute Who will use the GMI, and why?
