Abstract
In the interest of developing a statewide addressing dataset, the Delaware Geographic Data Committee (DGDC) through the Office of State Planning Coordination (OSPC) contracted with the University of Delaware’s Institute for Public Administration (IPA) in October 2012. IPA’s task was to: “facilitate a working group comprised of professionals throughout the state established by the Office of State Planning Coordination (OSPC) to define standards for the GIS data associated with the Addressing of parcels in Delaware.” The work also included “research on federal Addressing Standards, including pilot projects initiated by the U.S. Census Bureau.” IPA worked with OSPC staff to facilitate meetings with the professionals in this state who manage these addressing issues on a daily basis to identify ways to create a standardized statewide addressing dataset. This document summarizes the findings of this initiative.
