USG may benefit from Homeland Security Projects

Windley is blogging the NASCIO conference.  He notes Steve Cooper's talk on the Office of Homeland Security.  In particular, Cooper says the Office will focus on the following projects:

  1. Wireless data
  2. Public health
  3. Geospatial data
  4. Pilot projects
    1. 3-6 months duration
    2. less than $1M
    3. cross agency (different functional areas and different levels of government)

USG should watch this office carefully, as our GIS, health, and communications programs may benefit from these foci.
