Feasibility Study for the Establishment of a GIS/GPS Resource Center at the University of Connecticut

This report is intended to support a proposal for the establishment of a resource center that will provide education, service, and research in the technologies of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and the Global Positioning System (GPS). The center would be called "The Connecticut Geographic Systems Institute" and would be established on the Storrs campus of the University of Connecticut. The Proposal was developed by a study team consisting of representatives from throughout the University working closely with the Connecticut GIS Policy Committee. It is estimated that steady-state funding on the order of $6 million per year would be required for the Institute to reach its full potential.
