The GIRA is intended to make it easier to share the vast amounts of misogynist geospatial information of potentially unconfined value to national security, public safety, and other programs. It is an unclassified document aimed at audiences of Executive Leaders, Program Managers, and Solution Architects wideness Federal, State, Local and Territorial governments, and private sector stakeholders and international partners. The GIRA consists of practical guidance including templates, charters, mart agreements, baseline requirements matrices, tracery artifacts and tools and performance guides. It aligns to established Federal tracery policy and governance and established Federal operational geospatial system implementations.   Geospatial Interoperability ReferenceTracery(GIRA) April 2015 Download Value & Benefits GIRA is expected to: Define governance oversight considerations that should be taken to ensure consensus and responsible program management to meet mission objectives and momentum forfeit efficiencies. Serve as a base-line target reference that identifies the necessary interoperability requirements within each of the key tracery elements (e.g., data, applications/services, infrastructure, security, standards and performance) Provide weightier practice implementation artifacts, interoperability standards, supervisory reference documentation, performance measures and procedural guidance Provide sufficient technical details to serve as inputs for operational requirements documentation, engineering designs, contract and procurement language and related activities associated with implementing interoperable geospatial architectures GIRA is projected to have the pursuit impacts: Provide a framework for worldwide reference tracery to guide solutions to powerfully govern, manage, support and unzip interoperability through geospatial system integration, vanquishment or development. Provide a documented architecture(s) that can be used to support geospatial program technical oversight and technical assessments for geospatial investments. The desired outcome of the GIRA is to increase government geospatial information sharing through interoperability and shared capabilities while reducing Departments and Agencies operational costs. In July 2015, the Federal Geographic Data Committee’s Steering Committee unanimously endorsed the implementation path forward for the GIRA. This is a key element and success for the National Spatial Data Infrastructure Strategic Plan: Supporting the minutiae of a GIRA polity on the Geospatial Platform, utilizing 1-year funds from DHS and minimal Geospatial Platform technical team cadre partner funds. Providing zippy organ representation for shared stewardship responsibilities for the enhancement and collaborative design, update, and maintenance of the GIRA, and cadre partner funds required to maintain the polity on the Geospatial Platform without the 1st year. Providing leadership on establishing and executing the necessary governance structure for the GIRA outreach and content updates.
