Introduction

• This presentation will include a brief history of
  the development of the Manitoba Land Initiative
  and include a policy perspective for the sharing
  of data
• and
• Give some insight into the internal operations of
  the warehouse site with an emphasis on data
  related to Southern Manitoba.

The (MLI)

• What is the MLI
• A Co-operative Provincial Government Initiative
  for the development of a digital on-line process
  to house, display and distribute Provincial

History

• There was a need for Manitoba to
• investigate a method for housing its own
  geospatial information (1999-2000).
• collectively think about many departments
  geospatial data products as a single corporate
  asset.
• develop mechanisms for the collection, storage
  and dissemination of its data products.
• create a interdepartmental structure for
  developing processes for a Manitoba data sharing
  and delivery service.

MLI delivery understanding

• All data is a corporate asset and its ownership
  never changes.
• Data contributors can advance their core
  geospatial datasets into the system at any time.
• Data contributors determine what datasets they
  release to the system.

8
Results of the process are

• A cross departmental, cross functional
  relationship for digital data sharing.
• A corporate partnership of departments was
  formalized and a provincial working group was
  established.
• Data sharing, data integration and standards
  development between departments for geospatial
  data products.
• A provincial mandate for the MLI process was
  instituted that provides for the development and
  provincial framework for the management of lands
  related information.

MLI Achievements

• The process has
• Raised the profile of land related systems
• Integrated on-line access to land data
• Improved our data currency processes
• Provided a process for electronic transactions
  internally and externally
• Provided smaller departments with equal access to
  data
• Provided internal and external user time and cost
  savings

MLI Warehouse Utilization
12
Summary

• Future program development is advancing the MLIs
  technical capabilities
• Data continues to flow into the warehouse at an
  increased rate (approximately 80 Gb)
• Human resource commitments continue by all user
  groups. As of March 1, 2005 there are 5600
  registered users.

13
Some Future Activities

• Striving to achieve a more seamless mapping and
  mapping framework.
• Continue to accept geospatially related data sets
  
• Investigate partnership relationships with other
  data products (NFIS), Intergraph and others.

Metadata management

• Spatial Metadata Management System (SMMS) is
  being implemented with the assistance of
  Geoconnections.

42
Web Map Publisher

• A pilot project is currently being completed with
  Intergraph , to evaluate and possibly implement
  this Web Map product as the next generation data
  access tool.

43
In conclusion

• The Manitoba Land Initiative (MLI) is a active
  and on-going program for the effective
  collection, storage and dispensing of digital
  geospatial data across the Manitoba government
  and to the public.
