Introduction
This guide provides resources and information on emerging geospatial technologies. See tabs for main themes of resources, supplemental web resources, and guidance. Examples of emerging themes relate to data creation, use of new sensors, and increased computing capabilities. As new themes emerge related geospatial technologies and geospatial data additional content and resources will be added. Emerging geospatial technologies themes have been identified from the National Geospatial Advisory Committee.
