• Abstract:
  The purpose of this peer exchange was to bring together practitioners of Geographic Information System (GIS) applications to discuss and learn about the implementation of data governance and data integration activities and policies at State Departments of Transportation (DOTs). There was a specific emphasis placed on explaining and aiding the efforts of the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), which has actively pursued a more developed data governance and integration project to improve the accuracy, usefulness, and structure of their data. The WSDOT hosted the peer exchange and presented their efforts to implement data governance and data management policies, while peer agencies contributed knowledge and expertise on topics within data integration. The ultimate goal of WSDOT is to create an enterprise-wide system that houses sound data, has clear protocols surrounding data governance, and appropriately informs decision making for leadership within WSDOT.
