Geospatial Interoperability Return on Investment Study

The purpose of this study is to measure, both qualitatively and quantitatively, the return on investment (ROI) to organizations implementing geospatial standards, standards specifically developed to promote interoperability between a wide variety of different applications. This study uses cost-benefit methodologies to quantify the value of geospatial interoperability standards and to determine to whom the benefits accrue and when they accrue.
