The goal of this grant series is to foster innovative approaches to solving government problems through the combined use of GIS, GPS, wireless, and server technology. Projects must demonstrate how GIS is a mission-critical technology in delivering government services as well as how mobile GIS solutions will result in increased efficiencies and/or effectiveness in daily efforts.

This program represents a means of providing governments with the tools and equipment necessary to develop and extend their GIS programs into the field via next generation mobile GIS and server GIS technologies.

These ten state, regional, and local governments in the United States will be awarded ESRI and Xplore Technologies software, hardware, and training grants totaling $95,950.
