The following three applications are up for review and comment. The comment period will close November 27, 2010.
City of Chicago (Type III - Applications)
- Application excerpt:
- The Chicago Climate Action Plan establishes mitigation goals and adaptation strategies. Dozens of partners have contributed to the development of the strategies, and the City of Chicago has been implementing changes and adaptations under a no regrets policy to improve our resiliency, flexibility and quality of life. We have completed a risk analysis due to climate change, downscaled GCM models to Chicago region, and aggressively pursuing many adaptation changes from ordinances to infrastructure, behavior to built environment.

Northrop Grumman Information Systems (Type III - applications)
- Application Excerpt:
- "Northrop Grumman Information Systems (NGIS) has a successful heritage in a number of relevant areas:
- Systems engineering approaches and proven production methodologies to geospatial data production, using off-the-shelf technologies and standards to develop effective solutions while integrating quality assurance/quality control throughout the information flow.
- System design, modeling, implementation, and operation to provide critical actionable information for decision support systems.
- Extensive capabilities in airborne remote sensing for focused high-resolution earth observation data collection, data processing and data analysis.
As a systems integrator, NGIS offers solutions that are vendor neutral and therefore can adapt to, and integrate with a wide range of user requirements, applications and domains. As a provider of geospatial applications, architectures and enterprise-wide solutions, NGIS uses open, standards-based commercial and open-source software for geographic analysis, visualization, and information dissemination. We build on common web-services architectures based on geospatial industry and community standards that promote system and data interoperability.
