Maryland Statewide Addressing Initiative Key
Partners

• Involved several key partners
• ESRI supplied licensing for ArcGIS Server to each
  jurisdiction, and technical support as needed.
• MSGIC led a grassroots campaign to enlist
  jurisdiction cooperation by emphasizing the
  benefits and critical importance of coordinated
  distribution of road centerline address data.
• The Maryland Highway Safety Office (MHSO) helped
  fund the Initiative as a component of the Virtual
  Data Warehouse (VDW) being developed at Towson
  University. VDW will improve crash reporting and
  traffic safety by making addressing and other
  critical data easily accessible to police
  officers at crash scenes and to traffic safety
  decision-makers.
• The dataset is also being utilized by MD iMap,
  Marylands statewide coordinated base map.
