The Outreach and Membership Committee supports strengthening the ability of government, commercial, not-for-profit and private citizen sectors in all nations to advance, use and sustain spatial data infrastructure developments that will allow these sectors to better address important societal, economic, and environmental issues. It does this by developing and offering awareness building and learning opportunities for the broad community as well as for members of the GSDI Association.

The committee strives to strengthen and expand the capacity of the organization by supporting effective and timely communications between and among members and by developing and implementing programs and services to strengthen membership.
